Hello amazing job love it 😍 one question what are the measurements for the rods and stocks please how many of each I would love to try and do this 👏 tank you hope for and answer
I use a aa batteries it adds up to 12 volt DC I went to RadioShack to get the casing for the batteries I love this tutorial of his wings it's been very helpful thank you very much and I will share it on my TH-cam page lougami
Good night, Kraven. I would like to know the size of each piece of your wing. Unfortunately, I can not reproduce these measures. I intend to make a slight modification to the opening. Congratulations on your excellent work.
excellent congratulations job,I do not speak English that is why I do not understand the audio but so internet search linear actuators come in various sizes my question is what is the extent required and fe wserious pounds forcé you merecommended. and once again congratulations and thanks for sharing
I there I love your tutorial. I was trying to make one for a parade I will be attending in August, however the aluminum rods does not stay upright. I am wondering if the correct bending of the aluminum rods will help.
this tutorial has been really helpful with my batman build thankyou! all though I was wondering what linear actuators are for since I dont have that kind of store where Im from. so maybe if I know whats it for I could find a store that could help me buy one it would be a tremendous help!
these are absolutely awesome, you are awesome! i need something like this but for a butterfly costume for a children's party any chance you can sale me one?
What specifically did you use to connect the rods and connect them to the base? I went to Lowe's and couldn't find any grounding brackets that were similar to yours. Do you know of any alternatives? These looks so great!
home depot I know has them. I don't know of any alternatives yet. Not without machining the pieces yourself. try copying and pasting the headline below into Google shop or amazon. there are several different sizes so be careful before you buy. if you can find it locally then you can compair it to which ever aluminum rod you have chosen for you project Wire Connectors: Blackburn Electrical Supplies #2/0 Stranded Max Type-ADR 2-Conductor 1-Hole Mount
What are those Brackets? I cannot find them anywhere for the life of me, and from what you say or looking at it etc nothing has them, Please can someone point me to them? i'm sure its not that hard to find some
its call aluminum/steel rod stock if you check out there website and use the sku #'s below it will tell you if your store carries them, and if not which store carries them near you. I think it even will tell you where in the store it is aprox. aluminum rod : Model # 801647 Internet #204273994 Store SKU #477052 Steel rod: Model # 801587 Internet #204273972 Store SKU #476614
I picked up a small 12v battery jump pack for a car, it's a lightweight lithium battery pack so it's good for a lot of cycles and easy to recharge it. I think it was around $40 online.
Mt. Crushmore I didn't end up using feathers. I ran out of time for that but I created a flexible skin out of thin painter plastic, spray adhesive, and a few layers of latex. Around the major joints I sewed spandex fabric to protect the hinges before applying the plastic and latex.
Phoenixgamer well I guess that depends on what your asking... the stock rods where like 40+ inches and as for the pieces I cut for my wings well.....that is going to vary depending on your design.
12v is the easiest way to go, plenty of actuators and power supplies available in 12v and you're able to keep things compact for hiding in the costume or around the actuator. Anything high would require a much larger power supply.
Really great work documenting the build. Has been really helpful for me in dealing with linear actuators for the 1st time.

I there I love your tutorial. I was trying to make one for a parade I will be attending in August, however the aluminum rods does not stay upright. I am wondering if the correct bending of the aluminum rods will help.
How did you make them. Your design is perfect for a cosplay that I'm working on.
I was wondering if you have the dimensions of your setup? Aluminum stock sizes etc.
First of all, amazing job! Do you have any schematics of the wings? Thank you in advance! :)
this tutorial has been really helpful with my batman build thankyou! all though I was wondering what linear actuators are for since I dont have that kind of store where Im from. so maybe if I know whats it for I could find a store that could help me buy one it would be a tremendous help!
I don't have a local store near me either. I stated in the tutorial that I got my actuator online at amazon.com
thanks for the help!
I’m trying to make my kid some buzz lightyear wings that extend. New to cosplay, any tips?
Can we see it in action?
which is the measure of the engine and few pounds is recommended
I was wondering, do you still have the link for the trash bag demonstration?
these are absolutely awesome, you are awesome! i need something like this but for a butterfly costume for a children's party
any chance you can sale me one?
Did the party still go well?
Where did u get your aluminum parts? I'm making wings just like these for Halloween and comic con.
Can you attach 2 Linear Actuarors?
Free of Charge
Do they have quieter ones cause I don’t know anything about this and I wanna get it as quiet as possible 🤔
Have you figured out a way to speed up the opening of the wing? For my wings it needs to open a little faster
Nice work ^_^
Do you know a way to control the speed of the opening of the wings? If I want to open a little slower for example
Thanks
What size liner actuator did you use?
ok, but all the exoskeleton regarding steel wings? Did you create it or where did you buy it?
Love your idea please get in touch with me it is urgent need help on wings

+Kraven Z. I'll try that. Thank you for such a prompt response!
make sure you use nylon locking nuts or the friction will un screw them
What are those Brackets? I cannot find them anywhere for the life of me, and from what you say or looking at it etc nothing has them, Please can someone point me to them? i'm sure its not that hard to find some
Question 1: How
would it be possibly to post the links of the items you bought on amazon
posted in description now
where did you get the rods for the main wing structure? I can't find them anywhere
Itachisephilover777 homedepot.
Kraven Z. I went there and didn't find them. what section were they in? and roughly how heavy were they? I'm making Castiel's wings from Supernatural
its call aluminum/steel rod stock if you check out there website and use the sku #'s below it will tell you if your store carries them, and if not which store carries them near you. I think it even will tell you where in the store it is aprox.
aluminum rod : Model # 801647 Internet #204273994 Store SKU #477052
Steel rod: Model # 801587 Internet #204273972 Store SKU #476614
Kraven Z. awesome! thank you :3
how long does the battery last... and how long does it take to charge? i found bigger battery but weighs 4 pounds
I picked up a small 12v battery jump pack for a car, it's a lightweight lithium battery pack so it's good for a lot of cycles and easy to recharge it. I think it was around $40 online.
how did you attach the wing feathers?

cool
Does it have to be 12 volt?
12v is the easiest way to go, plenty of actuators and power supplies available in 12v and you're able to keep things compact for hiding in the costume or around the actuator. Anything high would require a much larger power supply.
If i send you mt email address, could you send me the dimensions? I usually do leather working if you need something made in return.
