Project Overview

Last year, we participated in the KidWind Worlds competition in the middle school division, where we were honored to receive the Rookie of the Year award. This year, we have advanced to the high school level and are currently working on developing a turbine for the open division. At this time, we have completed a KidWind generator turbine that we are submitting for competition. However, our goal is to qualify for Worlds again so that we can continue improving our design and test a planetary gear system in the open division.
