Gief free hardware :P
Here is a short vid on the TriCorder Controller for the Main Deflector Laser and the different fire-ing patterns.
I will need to find a decent second hand tricorder on ebay or something and fit the small remote into it. There will be more functions (double digit functions, 11,22,33,44) to control the other led and led arrays in the ship. Also the volume control of this old HDMI switcher remote will be used to fade certain leds. Couple of nice challenges to be overcome, but its getting there!
Looks pretty cool. Can't wait to see more body work done on the case.
Its going to take some more time unfortunately.
I need to finish all this work to be sure about the size of the breadboard I have to create for all the led work. this needs be fit somewhere in the deflector tunnel and once I have fixated the baseplate and deflector tunnel there`s almost no getting to the hardware anymore (except for swapping out HDD`s and the PSU)
I think the armour is another 10 to 15 hours of work.
Hope to get to it soon!
Congrats on a good result mate. Glad it all finally got worked out. Any thoughts on what you'll be building for the next comp yet?! :D
Ok , here is a mid-year update !
Ths build of the EURISKO started on january 16th and its now halfway through the year so time for a short update and planning for the next phase of the build.
Current state:
What a job but the noses and backsides of the nacelles are almost identical. Finally! Have got 6 days off from work (starting the 16th) to close the entire wing sections, right nacelle, install the mesh for the SDD/HDD tailfan and finish the deflector tunnel. I am going to need those 6 days ...
Its not going to be only build work but also unfortunately some restauration work. One of my cats descided to have a problem with that great big white thing in the corner of the room. Nails vs Depron, all best are open .... :evil:
Also for the next phase WWWicked of the Dutch forum Highflow has been hacking away at the beautifull banner made by JDBNSN! Hope you dont mind as I think it turned out quite ok. (picture is going te get swapped for finished picture)
Also I finally found a solution for the 500 dollar quote I received for the Dedication Plaque made of plexi.
Thanks to Dennis Jasper van Significs
There will be highres pic available once I put a nice frame around it
Live long and Prosper !
looking good man!!
I was actually thinking about his mod last weekend. "Where is it now?" Glad to see your still working on it.
Thansk guys !
The EURISKO got a bit lost in the Pegasus Galaxy ...
Here is a short vid on IZE's Atlantis (birthday gift for my baby girl, she just loved the leds and lasers on the EURISKO now she has her own)
Tubing has to be be stabilized with white plexi rings (looks like an Italian village right now) but the electronics work (there will be 64 RGB leds installed in sides) and she's good enough to light up her eyes when its in random mode...
