Guglielmo Marconi, Nobel prize-winning scientist, first sent wireless radio signals in 1895, on his father's estate; from there he went on to patent wireless telegraphy. In 1900, he sent the first successful telegraph message over the Atlantic Ocean, and the world has never been the same! This little radio-controlled car is manoeuvred using shortwave radio signals; everything you need to build the car is included in the kit. Requires 2 AA batteries to run, not included.
