Hi guys,
about a half year ago, I started to browse in the FISD and read all the builds of you guys. Many of you put a lot of effort and extra work into the blasters which is (still) very impressive.
When I saw, that some guys even added electronics to their blasters, I decided to build a blaster with electronics as well. After reading the forum again, I came across the thread of Andras. He is providing a fully integrated Arduino Board which comes with several features.
Thread where you can order the Arduino Board: http://501st.de/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=2941
Demonstration Video of what the board provides: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7UXT-VAbzM
Once I saw his Arduino board, I ordered one. This led me to order the Doopydoo’s E11 kit and the T-Jay Completion kit as well.
In addition to that, I ordered some 3D printed pieces as well.
Unfortunately, I decided too late to document the build, the electronic stuff has been completed already.
Many thanks to Andras again, who helped me a lot, when I am stuck with the project! In general , the support for the board in case of questions and help is very good!
Let’s start with the current status:
Here you can see the electronic, which will be added to the blaster, in action (This video is made by Andras, when he tested the whole electronic after a problem):
First step that I did for the build was, printing out the Blaster Reference. I really can recommend that to everyone who does his first Blaster!
