THE PROGRAMMABLE ELECTRONIC TOY VEHICLE Created in 1979, Bigtrak became an enormously popular & coveted toy for youngsters of a wide age range. Probably the first of its type, & incredibly advanced for its time, this six wheeled tank is back to entertain & amuse a new generation. Bigtrak can remember up to 16 commands, programmed into the control panel on its back; press go & it will perform them in sequence. Movement is governed by the simple use of numbers, each unit being a length of forward or backward movement. The turning, also simply controlled by the use of numbers, is very precise
- based on a clock face, a turn of 60 is a 360 degree turn. Pausing can be built into its sequence & 'firing'
- flashing of the blue light 'laser' accompanied by futuristic shooting sounds. With a little planning & experimentation Bigtrak can be sent on complex fantasy lunar excursions! We anticipate that this will hold retro appeal for those who remember it from the 80's, & teach basic programming & convey the excitement of robotic space exploration to a new generation.
