    "Beautiful. You're hired." (to work on mine) haha Jokes aside, I've been wanting to do something similar to my Spirit trap and this has definitely given me some inspiration. Fantastic work on the mods as well as the channel. Been enjoying everything since I subscribed. Keep up the good work!

    Neat idea! I went a different route with the door opening. I was bored and reversed engineered the Walmart Rubies version's gear box they used. 3d print the case and actuator, along with some gears and the 5v motor and limit switches and re use the existing bomb bay door mechanism in the Spirit Trap and voila. Add a pedal and you have a remote opening trap. It just slides in as an assembly like the Rubie trap like it belongs there.

    • @ExperienceExplorers
      @ExperienceExplorers  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks - it was a simple power on - sever shut the door - power off - springs pulled the door open. So I ended up using a simple switch in the end (having preset the servo position when it came on)

    Awesome job! Can you share a link to that red led hat light that you installed over the existing one on the spirit trap? I'd like to add that mod to a few and its easier than opening them all up to replace the whole thing.

      Yes very happy to: amzn.to/3SV2EaT you need to pry the read lamp cover off the lamp. I did it by putting the white part in a vice and gently prying the metal collar evenly all the way round so as not to damage it.

      @@ExperienceExplorersYeah but there is always some tweaks when you are creative..

      How long have you been building stuff yourself??

      Yeah the pen thing is a bit of a shortcut - but when you are in a hurry sharpies can really help if you add and smudge before it’s dry.
      I’ve been building for a long time - but only really started thinking about sharing my builds in the last few years - always been in to creating experiences so excited by the idea of sharing them here! 😊

    Is there an example of the wiring anywhere that we can see as I’m wanting to do the same things and have a bunch of questions e.g. does the servo need the controller permanently or is it just for configuration, does the x2 AAs power the servo ok also or do we need extra power etc etc

    could've saved a ton of time by getting the Wal-Mart version of the trap that already has the servo/remote door opening set up. from there you just have to replace/extend the wiring.
