    Excellent! It's a really nice design using simple hardware. Totally agree that mixing 12V actuators and 6-7.4V servos can be a pain. I would imagine adding a secondary link off the top wing to drive the wing cap would be a simple solution.

    • @Zibartas
      @Zibartas  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yup! That's exactly my reasoning behind using 'dumb' DC motors - no need to make them super complicated and therefore fragile - I want them to be able to take a beating.

    I'm here for our class' art exhibit, was planning to make mechanical wings as my entry for that, so been binge watching your videos (I'm a new subscriber too), but I realized now that doing this, for now, is still too complicated for a beginner like me. Gotta go for the basic non-movable wings for now, but I def would work to achieve mechanical wings too, your works are so cool it really inspires me.

    WOW! This is so cool! I'm currently working on my own set of wings but i'm not sure what type of motor to use on mine. i'm planning on using a pulley system i'm not sure if that makes it more complicated though. I've never really done any form of engineering in my life so i'm open to suggestions in motors or batteries or any parts that make more sense that what i'm doing 😅

    Thank you, this is super helpful. I do have a question about how you get them to rotate out before the wings go upwards? I'm planning a build for Maleficent and really want the wings to move from down my back, rotate out and then rise and struggling to find any info on how to do this. Yours look like they do it!

    You could do four of those batteries and run them parallel series in pairs of two and your lights can be run off of two and your motor mechanisms be run off of two and not only will the batteries draw evenly but you could last so much longer. Your Genius!

    • @Zibartas
      @Zibartas  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In the end I went with a single, large 4 cell battery, and 3 voltage rails with 2 regulators - 1 regulator @ 5V for Arduino, 1 regulator (actually 2 in parallel) @ 12V for LEDs, and 'raw' 15V rail straight from the battery to the motor drivers, for maximum current and voltage :)

    Do you happen to know if there are actuators that have a variety of motion? Like a square pad that moves in like a grid? Like if it was a 9 grid panel, it would be able to move in that range....not sure if im expressing this correctly....

    How heavy is that setup? I've wantes to work on some form of animatronic demon wings for halloween and have paper mocked several designs, but the folding on your design is spectacular! I'm not great with circuits, but since there are only 2 motors on each side, I may be able to figure it out. However, being a smaller person, and not particularly strong, I would likely have to fabricate most of the parts out of lighter materials... I could likely only wear about 20lbs total without suffering fatigue for longer wear times. I dont do cosplay compititions.. just a costume enthusiast :) ... any advice would be wonderful. Beautiful job so far :)

    • @Zibartas
      @Zibartas  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      If it's 'just for halloween' consider using pulley-rope actuated ones that you extend with your arms :) Mine are over-engineered and really heavy duty - i thick aluminium and steel plates - because I know I'll be adding a lot of weight with lights and plexi to the structure. If you're going for more of a fabric bat-wing look you can use something like plastic tubing for in-wall cable runs - it will be very light that way!

      @@Zibartas thank you for the response. I'm still looking for animatronic action, but I completely understand where you're coming from. I've seen some set ups with just one linear actuator, but the movement is a bit one dimensional... I enjoy that you've achieved movement in 2 axis. I'll keep playing with some ideas... it's not for this Halloween anyway. Thank you again. And best of luck with Mercy
