RX-24 Build Complete

Captain Rex, Star Tours pilot replica completed.

Captain Rex was completed and assembled in time to make it to R2LA 16.

Krank installed servos to operate vertical neck movement including head wobble and visor open/close!

Still needs some tweeking of coarse. Rex also has sound activated mouth LEDs and eye LEDs.

He sits on top of a custom 12v 2.4GHz Radio controlled cart so he can be driven around. His motors need to be upgraded but he does move!

Overall we are pleased with the build. As always, it has some imperfections especially since he is 3D printed.

Special thanks to Gordon Tarpley for sharing the wonder that is Alcald Chrome. It really made the build we think. Check him out on YouTube and social media!
