  • I've hacked another 40 digital functions into the two spare analog channels on my R/C remote using Arduino and the Adafruit LCD sheild.

    ② XROBOTS
    Former toy designer, current RUclips maker and general robotics, electrical and mechanical engineer, I’m a fan of doing it yourself and innovation by trial and error. My channel is where I share some of my useful and not-so-useful inventions, designs and maker advice. Iron Man is my go-to cosplay, and 3D printing can solve most issues - broken bolts, missing parts, world hunger, you name it.
    XRobots is the community around my content where you can get in touch, share tips and advice, and more build FAQs, schematics and designs are also available.
    ③ MUSIC AND SFX
    The majority of the music and SFX used in my videos is from Epidemic Sound share.epidemics...

    The best part of watching your videos is when you create an awesome aesthetic for something basic. The shape of the mount for the controller is perfect. You're like a mad genius.

    Loving this! Seeing all the Arduino, and other electronics, functioning together is wonderful! I just started working with my Mega, and can't wait to get up to this level of integration! Thank you James. Inspiring!

    I started watching these thinking: cool 3D printing! But now with this, BB8 and all the other projects I'm getting really blown away! Keep up the good work, you have my full admiration. 😉

    The best way to smooth the pwm out would be a RC-filter matching the PWM frequency :-)

    Great choice on choosing a R6, since it was one of best astromechs next to the R2-series.

  • @tomreeson347
    @tomreeson347 9 лет назад +1

    I think its cool how it is a mechanical model so you can see through it

  • @hayfahvytsen
    @hayfahvytsen 8 лет назад +1

    Great stuff. Impressive how much you can do with 123D and 3D printers. BTW, is there a series resistor between the Arduino PWM output and the 470uF filter cap? That's pretty important for a single pole low pass filter.

    I look at all that code and electronics and i might as well be looking at Japanese writing instead as I have no clue about either but the vid is pretty informative. Im guessing since you have set so many options up that you will be able to easily add each new device and the mini animatronic arms and things to the controller as you add them making it easier for you to show them in action. Will you be naming the options on the lcd menu so that you know what you are selecting?

    @knightmedia1 9 лет назад +1

    Great work.......love watching the vids.........would be great to see you build a DALEK full or half size.......would of suggested a TARDIS........but such simple parts, but I think a half or full size RC DALEK would be great to see ;-)

  • @daaronson35

    Any thoughts on using an MCP41100 or any other digital potentiometer instead? I have one in a drawer and never did something with it, but when I saw this, it came to my mind. Great update!

    Nice job on the remote hack, I hope you are going to enclose the arduino and the wiring to protect it, perhaps with a clip on cover

    Watching this video makes me wish you would make a Metabee from Medabots (anime) or any other robot.

  • @StyloCompany
    @StyloCompany 9 лет назад

    base on the fact that I just understood about a 25% of all that coding and integrating, I think is possible (tho hard) to program a small logarithms to automatized some of the movement. For example if you press the green button R6 would spin its head flash some lights and make a "happy" sound on a sequence.

    I must have missed something but using an analogue transmission seems quite a complex method for initiating the various settings. Was there no practical way to send a simple data stream so you could send the command numbers directly?

    Have you considered turning the power couplings into actual plugs that could be used to charge the droid?

    • @ThePurplePunster
      @ThePurplePunster 9 лет назад

      Jacob Jensen That actually sounds like a great idea. Using multiple ni-cad (or similar) batteries for the various components of the droid would require a need to recharge them in bulk by some means.

      0.2 / 0.3 for detail 0.4 for standard or 0.5 for fast low quality

    why don't you do a video on your work area, Arduino's, other micro-controllers , tools you use, 3d printers, electronics , servos, ABS filament collections , and other stuffs of yours, so that kids like us can also do some props.

    @drugmaster_telros7770 9 лет назад

    its probably crazy hard but when its done if its camera eye works and you have a sort of cctv set up to that remote that would be amazing imagine going around with this droid being the droid making it not obvious your the one with the remote beeping and booping replying to people talking to you leaving people to think how the fuck cx
