Normally with your Aker fitted in the chest area and microphone in the helmet you won't get feedback, unless you have it turned up too high 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get hot easy so fans are a must lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank75139[501st] Posted March 23, 2018 Report Share Posted March 23, 2018 I’ve got two fans and the aker on my chest with the mic that came with it in my helmet and two fans. If I have the volume up too high it gives feedback. Haven’t trooped yet but my kids say it sounds good when I have it at about half way. I have hearing assist so it sounds like I’m yelling but they say it’s perfect. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Gree[501st] Posted April 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 Little bit of an update. Havent started on kit yet, still waiting for it to come in. Just made a deal for a B grade blaster (Hyperform), second pair of boots (TK Boots), Belt and holster. Hopefully not too much work needs to be done to the blaster, boots were a really good deal and could pass them up, and still need the belt and holster for the build. Everything should be here once the armor comes in, and when build starts hope there will not be any stalls due to missing items. Also got everything in for Helmet interior, just waiting on an Iphone for Troopertalk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Gree[501st] Posted May 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 So as of right now everything is on hold. I got my helmet partially put together, just need to attached front and back, and put ears. But! we are fixing to move into the new house so everything got packed away..... I hate this... The kit will have to remain in pieces until we move into the new house. Oh well it will be nice having a dedicated space to build and not have to worry about much! sorry I am dragging on. I know its not a race but this is just sad... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Gree[501st] Posted May 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I did get my TD clips in though, I think that's the last hard part that I need besides straps and elastic! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Gree[501st] Posted June 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Man its been a while since I posted. I see that what I did is kinda normal, got my box then let it sit like the world would end if I started work. Finally got moved in to our new house and back from Vacation. Submitted approval photos (TI-Reserve Pilot) and filled out my App for the 501st this weekend. For some reason, this act BOOSTED me into a frenzy of "Get stuff done!" I have completed: my bucket Ab buttons painted and installed TD is done parts trimmed Biceps completed Belt cut Notch in Kidneys done Hand Guards done I still have a lot to do, and this week wont be the week to do it as im working 12s all week. But this weekend will be great and hope to get some more progress. Will get photos uploaded tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Gree[501st] Posted June 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Thanks all. Got one side of my left forearm done last night, checked on it this morning and it looks good, but might put some reinforcements on the inside, the cover strip moved sideways a little (even after magnets, clamps, and Tape was applied) but it doesn't look bad. Having to split free time between getting the new house ready and building. But I am guessing by about 2 weeks I should be done. I am waiting on better snaps to come in and a few tools for the snaps. Got my torso all figured out and will be done with that this weekend, waiting on Soldering iron. should just need the legs after this weekend!
