R2D2 Fett's Blog

This is just to post updates on my various projects, like my full sized R2D2, my Han Solo in carbonite, my Boba Fett, Yoda, C3PO......AND the finishing of our basement (and home theater)or anything else that I might think is interesting enough to post.

Whew...problem solved...R2 WORKS!

I resoldered my motor at work (with some help from a better solderer) and remounted it tongiht. Wasn't ooo bad. Tried it out..and IT WORKS!!

Sorry if I overreacted..I was pretty bummed out last night!

So now my R2 moved nicely, has easy controls from a Ps2 wireless controller, has sounds at the press of a button, or the interactive version, had interactive HP that lights up, and the DOME MOVES!!!!

Thanks for being here supporting my whining guys!

Thanks Thomas.

I am just so relieved...it becomes such a burden for something we choose to do!
