Just wanted to update..have been working on R2 on my holidays a bit when I can. I just finished painting and installing my new HP's (generously given to me by my Danish friend Holse). They look GREAT!
I also extended the wires and added a quick release coupling (round serial cable) so that I coudl mount the LED from my interactive R2 in the new front holo eye. Now when I am using the interactive R2 for sounds and I say , "Light beam" or play message it will light up and play Leia's message. This will limit my dome rotation a bit (I have a long loose wires so I could probably do a few laps with no problems)...but I'll just be carefull.
I also received my new seed controller so as soon as my dome motor adapter arrives I can mount that and get that head spinning again!
Nice to get some progress in improving my R2!
I'll post a video soon of the HP in action, and R2 moving with his new C6C control system!

Cool Jason! Nice to "see" your progress ;)
I was wondering about something you made earlier. Where did you get your C3P0 head and body parts? I was considering to make a wearable one for me, as long as I can keep my weight as is, lol

Hey man..thanks. There is a video up now...as bad a quality as it is.
I got my Threepio kit from goldenarmor.com. You can email him and get a price. He is a really nice guy. The quality of the pieces can be rough but he has made his into a wearable version and has some videos on his site of it in action.
Now you are just bragging about being that thin! :p
Bragging...who me?? ;)
huh..Jason..I tried to send an email but it seems their contact email doesn't work. Is the address you used (impervium@hotmail.com)?
Thomas
I think my address was impervium@aol.com
Any other addresses on his site?
Hmm..looks like it should now be impervium@hotmail.com
Weird.
