Let’s roll: new marble run

PROFI Dynamic L 2

If the first building set thrilled the marble run fans with the diver-sity of the routing, then the PROFI Dynamic L 2 building set offers even more possibilities to let the marbles speed through the flexible rails. Three action marble runs with a track length of up to 4.5 m and four didactic test models can be constructed from 760 building elements.

Thanks to the newly designed cross-overs, the marbles can now speed through two different runs. Rotary funnel, looping, rocker and most all the new 180 degree curves enable a fast direction change. When the marbles are at the bottom, the elevator, driven by a fischertechnik XS motor, convey the marbles back to the top. And the fascinating spectacle of all that's new begins.

Four test models demonstrate in a fun manner the laws of ac-celeration, conservation of energy, momentum and balance of forces. The didactic accompanying information explains these physical phenomena with up-to-date examples. In addition to the comprehensive building instructions, there is also on the e-learning portal (www.fischertechnik-elearning.com) didactic ac-companying information, animations and videos available as free downloads.

The complete set includes eight short and 17 long flex-rails, four high-speed curves, four 90 degree curves, three 180 degree curves, ten steel marbles, one rotary funnel, one switch, one fischertechnik XS motor and a battery holder for a 9 volt block battery (battery not included). The building set can also be ex-panded with all the building sets from the PROFI Dynamic line, the PLUS Accu Set, the PLUS Power Set, the PLUS LED Set and the PLUS Sound + Lights Set.

PROFI Dynamic S

Left, right, over the rocker, through the 90 degree curve and then through the sound tube. Observing the marbles running and continually changing the routing fascinates children. The new PROFI Dynamic S building set offers the familiar playing fun of the fischertechnik marble run in S format. A run, an action run and a run with two routes can be quickly built from the 140 building elements with four 90 degree curves, six short flex rails, three long flex rails, a sound tube and three steel marbles.

PROFI Dynamic XS

The PROFI Dynamic XS building set promises entertaining fun for children seven years and up. A jump, a marble run and a game of skill can be made with the aid of the building instruc-tions. Even more creative playing ideas for the models is offered by fischertechnik as a free download on the website (www.fischertechnik.de). The colorful patterns, the marble run and a football goal can provide hours of play. And at the right distance from the jump the marble flies in a perfect trajectory through the ring of fire.

The building set includes one 90 degree curve, six short flex rails and two marbles. It can be expanded with all the building sets from the PROFI Dynamic line and the PLUS LED Set.
