Spartan laser wip!!!!
🕑 Added 2022-07-04 15:02:51 +0000 UTCHELLO EVERYONE!!!! today I have an update for you on the Spartan laser!!! :D the basic modelling is done! wooohooo and man is this thing a beast! I have added a photo of it compared to the sniper I did a while back for reference this thing is insane! :D
with the basic modelling done I began on the main structure and internals and realized THIS THING NEEDS ELECTRICS!! and then completely stopped this project and finished the wingman hahaha :D but with that done THIS THING CAN GET ELECTRONICS!!! wooohooo :D to the features!!!!
I'm planning to add:
led lighting!!!
opening front plate! (servo powered)
led screen!!!
spring-loaded trigger!!!
removable power plant!!!
all-new internal design method!!!
and more!!!!
with all that! this model is one of the riskiest models I have done in a long time! there is a lot of firsts here and I have found 2 issues that might become a bit of a problem :D first is the new frame, the new internal design from what I can see might have an issue with twisting due to the bolt-together method. I'm about 90% I have fixed this issue but I won't be 100% sure until the test print :D and 2nd that servo-powered top plate! an issue that popped up is if servos where under continues load (such as trying to get to a position that it could not) THEY WOULD GET REALLY HOT! not good so I need to design the top plate lifting mechanism in a way that when it fully lifted it's not putting max load on the servos, think I have found a solution for that as well but i cant be 100% sure till the test print :D but if I can sort out these 2 issues, this project is going to be insane!!!!! woohoooo I cant wait to finish it!!!! :D

thanks man :D I swapped over to the halo 5 version as it was a better fit for the features I wanted to add :D. I can't give you a definitive answer yet on if the internals can be hot-swapped but you will be installing them all :D

You're doing the Halo 5 version? Interesting! Also interested to see if all the internals are needed to be installed or could be hot swapped. With the internals I don't think I could hold it in cosplay 😅
