Hello everybody! Since the deadline has been extended, I built another entry for the CW community build! I present to you my most intricate MOC yet: a recreation of the most exciting and action packed episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars EVER! A Sunny Day in the Void The Void by Oky - Space Ranger, on Flickr Okay, maybe I just wanted to show off my pit droid and Gascon designs. Although I did genuinely enjoy this episode a bit. Here is a profile shot of D-Squad: (from left to right) WAC-47, R2-D2, U9-C4, M5-BZ, Colonel Meebur Gascon, and QT-KT. D-Squad by Oky - Space Ranger, on Flickr And here's A close-up of what is probably the only truly original part of this "MOC", the frog-like leader of D-Squad. He's a little oversized, but this is as small as I could make him. Colonel Meebur Gascon by Oky - Space Ranger, on Flickr And for those unfamiliar with this episode, here's a reference picture:

Hey guys! I had a lot of fun bulding this little droid, so I decided to go one step further and to build an bigger and more complex astromech. As it turned out it took a lot of time until I was satisfied with performance and size Dimensions: weight: 2348g height: 46 studs with antenna width: 33 studs depth: 25 studs PF: 2x IR-receiver 2x L motor 3x M motor 3x extension wire 1x battery box Drive: The drivetrain is quite simple: skid steering powerd by two L motors geared 1:2.799 Functions: Because I wanted more seperated funtions than one IR-receiver can provide I came up with two solutions. The hatch can be opened and closed. It's connected to a distribution gearbox, so when it's closed power is provided to the tilt mechanism. In the moment you open the hatch, the power will be provided to a serial valve control for two pneumatic valves. These valves are for the outrigger and the claw. The antenna is connected with some beams to the valve control, so I have optical feedback of the valve status. For air supply there is an automatic compressor with two grey pumps and also a nice two cylinder fake engine here is a short video. enjoy! P.S: well something went wrong as you can see at the title of my topic so...Jim or someone else: could you please change the title to: "[MOC] astromech FP-08" ? That would be great! thx
