| Description: Duk Tape is a solar powered photvore meaning that it seeks the brightest light for more power. I made it with help from Chiu-Yuan Fang's Tutorial. At first it was front-heavy, so I added a "wheelie bar." Now it does a little wheelie when the engines fire, thus increasing efficiency by not dragging the capacitor on the ground. He got his name because I didn't have any heat shrink tubing for wheels, so I used duct tape. |
