Murdicus Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 So after being out for an extremely long time due to illness and more longer being able to work to pay for the hobby I have decided to repaint the majority of my army. After finally deciding to do my Crusader first I wanted to do something different and thought it would be fun to have a remote controlled version and the ETL is upon us so why not?

ValourousHeart Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Do you think you'll connect the front ramp to the controls? Are you planning any lights or laser pointers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 That's so cool! Let's see some pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epher Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Totally cool project! What are you planning to use for motors and a controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdicus Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 As it is my first attempt I'm going to play it safe and just have it move for now. I've just received a 1:30 bb firing tank from Amazon so I will probably look into wiring lights off the bb gun circuit at a later date, time dependent of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValourousHeart Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Sounds like a great project. I can't wait to see more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epher Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Having a donor vehicle should make it a lot easier. That way all the parts should work together. I was thinking that it may be an Arduino based rig but you cannot go wrong with your route! Looking forward to seeing more progress. Are you going to paint it in Deathwing colors?

Murdicus Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 So this is what I'm working from http://i79.photobucket.com/albums/j160/GrandMasterMurdicus/Mobile%20Uploads/200471_195688610469401_6245912_n.jpg The plan is to leave this paint while I do the dry fit of the mechanisms then into a bucket of dettol to strip and redo the paint job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
