Phantom Manor has been my favorite attraction from DLP since I was little, words can't even describe how surprised at how well you nailed this!! very big congrats dude definitely do more Disney inspired projects for sure!!!
WOW!!!! All we would do is paint the skull to have some of the blue shading or black shading on it, but wow this is so incredible!!!! 3 thumbs up from us Hitch Hiking Ghosts!
WOW! My Jaws dropped, Great Job!! One thing I would change however is the neck needs to be hidden and the skull colors needs to be a brownish metallic color. Other than that ITS PERFECT!!!!
Love it, Love it, Love it ! Although I hate to think about how many hours this took to make. I find it really annoying when non-creative people look at something you have made from scratch and go 'Oh that's nice, with no real idea how long these things can take to make. I'm interested as to what comes next, to see a full-sized version would be very interesting !
I am on a project which is simply to make the animatronics that you have recreated thanks to all the resources that you have made available (I am only at the crow for the moment). but as I realize that the 3d models are not up to date with the final result. What I mean is that they don't quite look like the ones shown in the video. I also have trouble understanding the mechanism of the jaw which seems to have been changed in the meantime because we see differences between certain extracts of the video (2:35 and 2:58).
The 3D model only includes the parts which were 3D printed. Due to the small size of the raven, I needed to use a tube with a wire (basically a bowden cable mechanism) which is pulled by a sub micro servo located near the tail. You're right that I needed to change the design a bit, so comparing the 2 timestamps in the video, you'll see that I moved the tube from the top of the head to the throat. This helped to increase the motion range of the head as the tube can now move more freely.
@@timhendriks93 Thanks ! I put and it works ! I did not linked the head with the 2 other servos but the cable for the beak of the raven should be pliable right ?
I used Blender for the 3D model and animation, Cura to slice the objects before printing, Visual Studio Code to write the code, as well as the Arduino CLI to compile and upload it to the board.
Phantom manor is such a georgous ride and is a bit scary, i love your animatronic and i'm ipressed by what you just did, can you do an it's a small world doll please ?
@@timhendriks93 maybe the german accordion player ? or the hula doll ? or the spanish guitar player or flamenco dancer ? there is alot in the ride i don't know what to choose but if you want i tell you all of the dolls and you choose one !
I am happy to share the blend file with you for free, would be nice to have a community for DIY animatronics :) www.tim-hendriks.com/files/PhantomAnimatronic.blend Keep in mind that this has not been prepared to be reproduced in an easy way.
@@timhendriks93 Can I get a hold of the audio file you used? I like what you did and would like to make one for myself. I have looking for a way to control servos with blender. Is the Arduino code available? You did a great job making this.
Thanks Tim, I used a mix of two audio tracks I found on RUclips: Background Music: ruclips.net/video/gMMIhVIE2_s/видео.html Phantom Laughter: ruclips.net/video/qx7dyns1mf8/видео.html I made a specific video about how to control servos with blender and provided some example files / code which can be downloaded from Github: ruclips.net/video/yeJxMaNQAzg/видео.html Hope this helps :)
@@timhendriks93 Thank you very much for sharing the file! Could you recommend a book of mechanism design? I would like to learn how to design audioanimatronics like yours
@@timhendriks93 I also make your phantom animatronic and make the buzz lightyear animatronic after that. But it will takes a long time because of homework ; (
Hi Tim. How many hours a day do you recommend to keep animatronics working to keep them safe ftom burning? And what servos you recommend. I mean, not too expensive gear. Thanks Arturo
Hi Arturo, I would really hope that you can run them constantly without such a risk. I've never ran my animatronics for more than a couple of hours (I think 6 was the longest), but never had any issues when doing that and they also weren't hot to the touch. For my builds I mostly used MG90S metal geared digital micro servos and for larger / heavier applications I used a 25kg digital standard servo.
Bedankt voor je reactie! Ik exporteer de animatie als BVH bestand waarin de positie van de gewrichten / motoren per frame opgeslagen wordt. Met behulp van een klein eigen programma vertaal ik de rotatie naar een waarde die via de Arduino aan de servo driver (PCA9685) doorgestuurd kan worden.
The phantom is one of my favorites next to the oogie boogie animatronic. Any chance you’d consider selling in the future? Would love to have a phantom and I saw the video you’re doing of the jack sparrow at the end of pirates. Keep up the great work!
Thanks a lot, but I don't think selling this particular Phantom will ever be an option for me :D But who knows, maybe I can come up with an idea for an animatronic kit sometime.
I used a simple DFPlayer Mini module: wiki.dfrobot.com/DFPlayer_Mini_SKU_DFR0299 I also connected the output to a PAM8403 audio amplifier: www.amazon.de/dp/B07PK8ZSN1

I ordered almost anything from Amazon and ebay. Since most of the figure is 3D printed, I barely need more than screws and nuts to assemble and mount the individual parts and servos.
You can download the blend file here, but keep in mind that it hasn't been optimized for easy reproduction: www.tim-hendriks.com/files/PhantomAnimatronic.blend
So far I was able to get there by watching some great RUclips videos on all the different topics like micro controllers, 3D printing, Blender and electronics in general 🙂
When I am older enough I’m going to make a phantom manor animatronic where he says some candy phrases he’s will speak English and French and when you can turn on and off and has two decisions Button mode he can play by the button and on any sound in MOD he can play by any sound
how tall is the figure? i've experimented with making 1/6 scale animatronics in the past, but the hardest part is trying to fit all those servos into such a small space
I currently don't intend to publish the 3D model since this would require quite some preparation and adjustments. But maybe someone can come up with an even better design :)
Update: I can now provide the blend file, but keep in mind that I did not optimize the model for easy recreation ;) www.tim-hendriks.com/files/PhantomAnimatronic.blend

Hey tim, i am struggeling a lot on my own animatronic controll system, i want to make one for pneumatic animatronics and later support more types. I just started out and find it rater complex and a slow project. My goal is to eventually have a system thad animatronic fans can buy for diy animatronics on varius scales. I was wondering if you can help me on this journey. If so, can you chat via discord? And your name sounds dutch, is thad were your from?
Hi Aron, sorry for the late response, but unfortunately I'm not actively using Discord and also want to focus on my approach to control animatronics based on a 3D model. Maybe you have already seen it, but I also released a video about my Blender Add-On which can be used to export animation data to servo control positions. There you can also find a link to the source code repository of the Add-On which also includes an Arduino example code file showcasing how you could build a program to use the animation data. Maybe this can help you get started with your pneumatic control system, too :)
Hi Tim! We just came across you message on our FB page but weren't able to answer, don't know why... This animatronic is AMAZING!
I WANT ONE!!! 😍😍😍
This is sick..I was picturing Skeletor off He Man
Yea I'm a massive fan of phantom ravenswood and I love this
Amazing job Tim! Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Amazing! Do you will make a technical video step by step to create this animatronic?
Thanks, I will definitely consider it, but of course I want to have enough experience to do it right. What kind of animatronic would you like to see?

The jaw has already been a separate object, but you can now have a look at the blend file yourself.

how tall is the figure? i've experimented with making 1/6 scale animatronics in the past, but the hardest part is trying to fit all those servos into such a small space
It's 60cm tall and I agree, I also spent most time figuring out where and how to place the servos while keeping a small scale.
👍
Have you used analog or digital servomotors ?
I used a mix of both: the smaller ones are analog servos, whereas for example the one to tilt the upper body is a 25kg/cm digital servo.
@@timhendriks93 what's the reference of blue servos ?
@@timhendriks93 and, can I use digital servos ?
Do you mean what model / brand the small blue servos are? They are called PES GH-S37-A analog nano servos.
Sure, like I said I also used digital servos in my build. Keep in mind that they require more power but in return they have a better torque.
