Wires
Hookup wires (red and black)
269 Motor
2 inch coupler
1 inch couplers
Axle
Coupler
Allow small gap so
axel spins freely
Step 1: Build Chassis
3 inch axle
X2 wheels
3 inch axle
3 inch axle
Step 2: Attach Wheels
Step 3: Attach Solar Module
Make sure there is space here,
so the wheel doesn’t rub on the breadboard
Tie allow free
Movement of axel
Step 4: Attach Fuel Cell and Breadboard
Step 4a: Alternate Breadboard Configuration
Note: Next slides will show steps to create this circuit
Step 5a: Electrically Connect Motor and Hook Up Wires
Wires going to fuel cell
Motor connector 
Step 5b: Physical Circuit
Wires must reach
solar cell and fuel cell
Route and secure wires to allow
free vehicle movement
Step 5c: Physical Wiring Recommendations
