Lots of amazing work here. The Falcon rocks. It looks right out of the movie. And very gentle work with the lighting. Not too much, not too little. Love the old school SDF-1. I prefer its lines to the Hasegawa. I've been waiting for the Hase Battle version for a lighted SDF-1, but now I'm thinking to go old school. Whats the best recommended SDF-1 kit with similar look to Derex's? I would rather it was smaller than 1:3000.

So we need something like this.

What is the function of the two opening shoulder hatches on the Defender? They dont seem to have missiles in them.
-
This rack and pinion might open the doors.

And with the same pre-order discount.

Uhhhh, that's not a fair race.

Links?

Smokin!

Gerwalk Keyboard! Love it. You should share that with Macross Fan Central on FB. Personally, I would drill some holes in the launch bay for flashing leds. But thats just me...
-
That's exciting! I will open those doors one way or another! So here's the plan for the hanger: revolving platforms, opening and closing bay doors, leds everywhere, sound effects, and lowering chain. See you in about a year!

Pengbuz, the diorama is AWESOME. Way to show those negative pricks and not give up! WM Cheng, I thought you said you were old and out of practice. That Falcon is absolutely amazing.
-
I wouldt know where to put that either, but not in the Scoop thread.

There were only 2 new valks for Delta. Could it be due to the complexity of the design of the 262?
-
Terrible. These KOs are severely unethical. I have no problem when a garage group designs its own figure and sells a few unique pieces to fans, even if it is unlicensed. But there is no justification for these at all.

Thanks. I understand limit switches. I understand reversing DC motors. That's fine. But there are 4 wires in a stepper motor (2 pairs). What do you mean by drive it off one end? Do you mean with the stepper motor, or reversing a DC motor? Can I find a screw drive without a stepper motor, or is that the only option?
-
Where did you find that? On Ebay they are all refab 4-wire stepper motors. Can I run a screw drive with a normal 2-wire DC motor?
-
Cool! NZEOD to the rescue. I will look into it.
-
I would say it's impossible, but you never know, right? Gotta keep dreaming. I have no idea how to open the doors. Need to see some simple examples of the types of gears to use.
-
I'm looking at these belt drives to rotate the platform on the hanger. Any suggestions what kind of gears could i use to open those doors? Thats an online photo. Not mine.
-
Looks great Pengbuz. Maybe you can add some extra model parts lying around to the hangar, like pipes and motors to detail it.
-
Nope. Just the trinket with a motor-running transistor from Adafruit. Havent learned how to use shields yet. But I assume they are the way to go to avoid clashes in the programming? I may end up powering the DC motor off the trinket, but not actually include it in the sketch. The DPDT switch would be manual to open and close the wings.
-
I feel I got really lucky with Arduino first time out getting the Yamato to work. Getting a DC motor to play nice with lights on the Nautilus has been very challenging. Study continues...

Valk origami is getting of my league. I aint never transforming this one!

New Macross TV Series in 20xx (sometime this decade)
arbit replied to Tochiro's topic in Movies and TV Series
I think we can expect something new each time out. And when he is in the right mood, we will get serious mecha action as well. -
So how many pen names now for Kanno? She is so successful she can have a different name each time out!
