Good News, and Bad News..

Good news is, Striker Eureka is coming along nicely (Arms, body, head, leg base rotation is what I have). I also hit 70K! Even so we also hit 100 upvotes!


Bad news? I have this thing that starts soon, it goes for the whole weekend until Sunday morning. I hopefully will get out the Y-wing in time, because I don't have everything done on that project.


I will finish it, I don't know how it'll move but it will. Striker Eureka is something worth spending the time on building.

    Oh cool, Striker Eureka? I love Pacific Rim, this aught to be awesome! By any chance are you putting in the missiles? It would be pretty easy to implement. Just have an opening chest compartment with an array of AT locking missiles.

    @MrMecha Most of the inputs, VTOL will be forearm control, TRIM will be elbow control, they are set to 3 and 4 as left hemisphere, right hemisphere control. The legs will be much more complex, there will be multiple inputs in the pistons to do certain things, roll to raise one leg, yaw to control foot turning (as I mentioned before, it will turn that way), and pitch, will be something I guess for leaning over and such. VTOL and TRIM will be the same, VTOL for quadriceps, TRIM for calf control. The feet will be balanced with shocks, and so will all the leg joints. They all will hold 4-5 shocks per strand of piston movement control.
    Ahh, I'm insane, I know, but it's worth doing
