It was a pretty regular morning in the Phil Studio. I had my coffee and went totally mad (like a mad scientist would).
I had that spark in my brain, like every time 2 wires touches each other.
Some of you may know the famous series ''Final Fantasy''? No? No-one??? NO TAKERS?!
Anyway, I wanted to design, draw and create an AirShip inspired from the one in the series and that's what I did.
I had all my PLA filaments with various colors (brownnnn) and some silver.
The design of the project was crystal clear in my mind like usual.
All I had left to do was to go wait at the door of the Toys R' Us until it opens... (Saturday, 8:14 AM)
I felt like a kid in the store! I wanted to buy everything but I was there with a precise purpose.
The mission was to buy a drone, come back home and scavenge the parts and create the AirShip.
I couldn't find a drone that was big enough so I ended up with an helicopter. (40$)
I came back home, unpacked the helicopter and started as quickly as possible to verify if I could scavenge the circuit of the toy and fit the new housing.
Here you may watch all the process I went trough and all the fun I had designing and executing the final tests.
The frame of the AirShip is composed of around 500 grams of PLA material.
Most of the details were drawn on a flat surface and than installed to the boat's hull.
The circuit is fitting inside the frame as well as the battery. To power up the circuit, I design a small door to have access to the ON/OFF switch.
Note:
This project is not intended for the Robot Contest of the month, this is only a fun showcase of a random project I did a while ago.
