LO-lA59 DROID READY FOR LAUNCH !!! (Patreon)

Finally its here, what you all have been waiting for :)   that was quite an intense build, so let me walk you through it :)   1 - yes there is both functional and nonfunctional versions included in case you don't wish to mess with electronics

I have also included a little "pdf" book if you wnat to print it out to use for easier assembly :) 

2 - the entire build is split up in 3 segments  : top portion, lower portion and legs/stand

3- all servos are attached to the "top portion" by using either "servo cover" parts that also act as a mount and the "eye servo cover" part.

4 - all parts are connected with m3 screws or with glue

5- flap hinges use m2 screws, they are a bit smaller  6 - servo mounts also use m2 screws

7 - 5x2 mm magnets are used to switch between legs and stand

8 - version with "flap" on the lower portion is included if you want to add a on/off switch of your choice  9 - there is a space for total of 4 led's - their sizes are in the build manual

10 - the eye can move left right and has a space for led. - The eye is moved by using a 90 degree bevel gear and m3x10 mm screw - i recommend you use a bit of glue to hold it in place, the eye has to move feely left and right but not up and down

11 - the code will be worked on, for the time being i wanted to give you the files so you can start the prints. Since the code will be open source please if you beat me to it, i would kindly appreciate if you can share the code so we help the entire community with it

12 - the chassis is held up with m3 screws and nuts so you can access electronics at any time

13 - there is room inside for arduino nano, and some micro power bank and perhaps some small speaker - it is yet to be tested  14 - total of 3 servos - 2 for moving flaps individually and 1 for the eye

15 - copper wire or rods are used to help move flaps ( 2mm in thickness)

16 - you can use the same thickness rod for the antenna


I think this is it for now, as i go along i will post more photos, but everything is pretty straightforward, so lets build this thing :D
