This model auto moves due to jet propulsion. Jet thrust is created due to the air-water mixture under pressure exiting the nozzle. In principle, it looks like a water rocket, but the master made some interesting decisions.
To make such a car, he used the following materials: a plastic bottle, a plastic juicer for oranges, plastic tubes, a valve, wood, rollers, bicycle nipple, dropper, arduino, MPU6050.
Unlike water rockets, this device has two tanks for fuel (water and air) and a carburetor where they mix. Everything is connected according to the diagram given by the master.
The frame is made of wood. The wheelbase is skate rollers. The wheels connect to the frame using wooden chopsticks for mixing coffee.
Arduino with MPU6050 and a servo drive is installed on the device. From the servo to the front wheel traction. With this system, cars can be controlled.

The speed of the working model is about 11 km / h.
