Added the R5 dome with pinstripes to the list of Fusion source files.
The Fusion files are excellent for reference, customisation and to help with building and learning. I'm happy to share all the design with dedicated Patreons just ask.

So Chopper now has Legs, a Body, skirt, front caster and drive units. It’s still in the wip directory but it’s all working well and I think it’s good to start printing. No instructions at the moment, but it’s fairly intuitive if you’ve built previous models. Looking great so far :-) 2020-06-22 16:22:28 +0000 UTC View Post
Chopper files in the ‘wip’ directory. Drives will be added this week.

Chopper now has legs, Centre caster, skirt, body, and foot drives complete. Just testing the drives (printing the second one). Foot shells next and then onto the dome. This is turning out to be a good model, really pleased so far.

Update on Chopper, the legs and body is now in the wip folder for beta testing. Note, changes may happen, so only for the fearless, but I’ve built mine so far and I’m happy enough to beta test. Cut for 200mm print beds.

Here's a new MicroDroid. This one is is the Bruiser. The design has a space in the neck for a small switch and the head controls the switch. One uppercut lifts the head and switches the bot off. 2 x FS90R continuous servos, a MG92 (or MG90) servo for the punch arm, a few bearings and bolt. As wit...

Working on ‘Bruiser’, switch in the neck, LED eye, part of the MicroDroid series for dedicated Patreons. A well placed uppercut will ‘switch off’ your opponent.

For some reason, the first share of these STLs wasn't the one I originally printed, it was an earlier print, so I had to retweak to add rear holes and widen the servo spaces / add another space on the top head servo. If you've printed it already it's possible to file it to fit / drill and self ta...
