Don't worry, clankers wont be sneaking up on you... unless theyre commando droids
I fucking love zanny
That looks absolutely amazing! Can't wait to see the finished product. I'm working on a TK right now, but a Clone Trooper is definitely next on my list!
I love how you set the electronics because you'd imagine that's what might be in it (obviously in a more star wars fashion)
This is a brilliant build.
Great job! I also really enjoy the way your videos progress. Very fun to watch! Thanks!
Very nice to say, thank you!
You truly are a wizard of electronics I am so humbled and impressed, can't wait to see all of this in person. I wish I could do what you do.
hah, thanks man. honestly this stuff looks way more complicated than it is. if you want to put any of this in your helmet i can help
You deserve more subs. Amazing
This is sooo awesome!
Yes been waiting for this!!
This is the second video ive watched from you and im in love with the banjo XD
Love the pic of Gavin :D
Ive spent alot of time with the electronics for my TK bucket. Never though of using an Arduino to control everything. This is genius! I may do a 3rd version of the electronics in my bucket and incorporate some of these ideas. Well done!
Awesome! Would love to see that when it's done!
Man thats awesome
You're an amazing creator, I just happened apon your channel and have became hooked. Keep making these videos please haha.
I find it funny when I hear the faint 'Greeblees' in the background lol
Really useful Thx
You deserve way more subs, Nice Helmont too
Couldn't agree more! hah. Thanks man, much appreciated.
Wow. Probably the best trooper helmet on the planet.
Very kind! Thanks!
PatchBOTS kinda hard to under stand you. You sound like a Death Trooper.
you could 3d print a cover for the electronics
Awesome electronics! Maybe one day 🤔😅
We should do a collaboration! Our channels are so similar and growing at the same rate, we should unite! haha
Shoot me up with any ideas you have :D Need to finish my clone as well
PatchBOTS and I can’t find anyone to Collaborate with..
Is there a resource to get a similar fx mic/speaker/module, since Rom Fx is no longer in business?
Awesome video series. Did you have an update schematic for the wiring with current links on amazon. I working on doing my Airborne and want to use a lot that you showed here.
How do you connect ear pieces to get audio?
Beautiful work! How can I make the static sound at the end of speaking? I just have to connect my microphone to the speaker and that’s all?
If I send you my helmet and com pad could you do this for me 😂 I am in no way techy and always seem to shock myself when working on things like this
Are you selling the extra 3D print designs?
how do you deal with velcro that has parts unstick for example a buddy had his shoulder armour fall off over and over due to the velcro coming unstuck easy. any stronger velcro tips
So,all in all,in real one the microphone in the middle part of the helmet or by sides?
Very awesome! Battlefront fans might be a bit sad that you didn't go for green visor lights. I'd only ad a small piece that stops the light from reaching the mouth piece and the binocular joints.
They are neopixels! Which means they are fully programmable. I can make them green. I agree, I'm currently working on a huge electronics overhaul on this thing (smaller, faster, better) and I'll definitely add in those stops for the lights.
@@PatchBOTS That's awesome. But this also means that you have to do some updates to disco mode!
Will you be offering the 3D file for the back panel cover on cover for the back panel. I was unable to locate it on your GitHub account.
can you make a more in depth tutorial on how to install the electronics please and thanks
This made electronics far less intimidating than it otherwise would've been. Do you have/have you shared the files you made for the housing of the speakers, the mic stand, etc?
The time has come *execute order 66* damn a built in speaker
i cant get to the ROM/FX Module link
Looks like the link you provided for the ROM/FX is no longer valid. Is the voice modulator called something else or do you know where else we can get one?
WOW. Why have I only just found this. Its AMAZING.
Could you make the Arduino project available on your GitHub pretty please.
Still a work in progress! I have a huge update coming on that project at which point I will release all files open source.
*whistles in impressment*
i started printing my own set of cosplay from some great files on thingiverse (pulled out of battlefront 2). how wide is your helmet or how much space do you have in your helmet for your nose? i printed 2 sets and one is kinda big, while my nose is nearly touching the T-visor and the second one was way to small, poking my nose out of the visor.
any advice? printing in PETG on my ender 3 pro.
The nose to T visor issue is an issue with a lot of helmets. Yes, my nose touches the T Visor a lot of the time, but it wouldn't poke out if the visor wasn't there. Ultimately, no one is REALLY going to be scrutinizing the size of the helmet too much, so if you want to make it a little roomier go for it. PETG is a good choice as far as temperature capabilities. Going to be a bish to sand though. Good luck!
And here I came to find out how to put a clone voice changer in my own helmet.
Something that would have been cool would have had the macro-binoculars actually have the functionality of binoculars. Not sure how you could have done it, but that would have been cool and added some more use to them.
You say that like I didn't try :) Yeah, I thought about that stuff long and hard. Long story short with that strip at the front it makes even the best layed plans "okay" at best. So why ad all that weight and work? I may or may not be cooking up something cool for the helmet when we revisit the electronics in the Com-Pad video. So check that out when I get there.
The blue device seen on 2:53 I learned is a capacitor used to enhance volume within the helmet speakers but the capacitors I’ve acquired 100v- 10v I always get feedback from it. Do you know what voltage your capacitors use to give off proper sound quality.
honestly for this purpose it doesn't matter a whole lot. The voltage is so low pretty much any capaciotr will work. I think I'm using a 10uf capacitor here, but again, almost anything will smooth out the signal.
@@PatchBOTS ok I get feedback though. Do you know anything that could counteract the feedback?
Hi I like your video good job man, I just have a question about where I can buy a phase 2 clone helmet from a safe online site or place?
Thanks. I got my helmet via Sanotized Creations. He is a prop maker from German. He is casting (with permission) EVO3 helmets (a prop maker from the US). If you're in the US I'd try contacting EVO3 directly. If not reach out to Sanotized Creations (both can be found on facebook).
If I sent a helmet to you, how much would it cost for me for you to do this wizardry for me?
Did you ever do something and think "i'm so glad I did this....but I never, ever ever want to do it again? "
PatchBOTS these are not the helmets I'm looking for 😂 I know exactly what you mean, I do commissions on models and some helmets, and I know exactly haha
Where did you get your helmet? I'm considering building commander Appo so it would be fun to build along with you (:
Short answer: Sanotized Creations Long Answer: I wanted an EVO3 helmet, but he was kind of on hiatus when I bought my helmet. Sanotized Creations has permission from EVO to cast his helmets so I went trough him. I believe EVO3 is back in business now so I would contact him first if you're in the US. If you're in Europe then go through Sanotized Creations. Same helmet though. Both can be found on Facebook.
Good luck with Appo! 501st clones are the best!
Any way you could share your Arduino code, particularly for the Bluetooth functions? I can find tutorials for printing messages to the serial monitor but not for doing something like you have here.
The code I had running is super crappy. I have since learned much better ways to run serial through bluetooth so I'm going to link you to the same resource I found: forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=396450.0
This is so an awesome kit, I would never dream of owning or building something nice, cuz I suck at building electronic stuff :D. If you find some time, would/could you share those 3d printed parts or where you got those files from?
Which parts in particular were you looking for?
PatchBOTS hi im looking for the case for the ear speakers and the actual speakers.
The 3D print file for the case can be found on my github linked in the description above. The EARS Speakers are also linked in the description.
PatchBOTS thank you, that helps me a lot. But I did mean the case for the actual speaker in 1:12, the ones you fill with foam. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Oh, duh. Okay. I uploaded those pieces to the repository.
This video is very informal just want to see the wire diagram and set up
Yes Very informal. I'm reworking the the whole project onto a single circuit board (check out my vlog videos for more info). It will be open source and proper schematics and gerbers will be provided.
I am thinking of doing a Commando Gregor helmet, and eventually armor, cosplay. Any suggestion?
Commandos are a whole other breed! You should defintiely check out the clone detachment forums and find a commando build you like and follow that. If nothing pans out as far as electronics then a lot of this would carry over to a commando build, but I'm sure those guys have it all figured out per their CRL.
@@PatchBOTS Thanks for the suggestion. I am having a hard time deciding who to do now, because some of my friends would really like to see hound. I think he is who I will be going with, and was going to ask if you have an idea of how to add the face visors on his helmet to a regular arf trooper helmet?
PatchBOTS also this will be my first cosplay and was wondering ur opinion on who would be easier?
Finally
I know right, this guy is SLOW!
PatchBOTS so you are just roasting your self.
indeed
PatchBOTS lol.
PatchBOTS never thought you would Reply tbh.
What did you do to connect the microphone and the speaker together for the “EARS” system? Was there an extra piece you forgot to mention?
Nope, no missing pieces. The smaller microphone gets wired directly to one end of the "Ears Amplifier Board" listed in the description of the video and the speaker gets wired directly to the other end. If you follow the link to the adafruit page for the amplifier board it's one of the example projects. All I really did was replace the larger microphone with a smaller one by hacking off the big one and resoldering the smaller one to the same pins.
@@PatchBOTS How do you power the soundboard then?
@@-drojan72nd-74 If you look at the board shown at 2:36, that's the sound board. You hack off the microphone in that image, replace it with the smaller one, then wire Vdd and GND back to the main board and wire OUT to the speaker+ along with a ground to the speaker -.
@@PatchBOTS What's the little battery looking thing connected to the speaker at 2:50?
@@OuterRimProductions That my friend is a capacitor. It kind of evens out the electrical signal to make it smoooooooth as Matthew Mcconaughey (yes i googled that spelling)
The lights would work much better with a Clone Commando helmet
if it was made outa Kevlar, it'd be a real one.
I know you said in another comment that you wouldn't want to do another, even for a price. Would anyone else consider building one of these or similar? Would really love one but would rather pay someone with the equipment rather than investing in another project I'd never finish. Any takers?
Unless, Patch, you would want to take this job for pay. I'll take your offer first 😊 dm me
Hey Joey, my firmness on "no" still stands". There is an alternative. An etsy guy sells a microphone/speaker/fan kit which would work. Here is a link: www.etsy.com/listing/605571526/clone-commander-audio-system?show_sold_out_detail=1
PatchBOTS well bummer! Maybe that's the push I need to try this myself...I've already jumped in line for one of EVO3's buckets so I'll try this build myself (or similar). Are there any any places that you would recommend online that could print your 3d pieces and ship to me? Would this maybe be something you do? Thanks for all the help :)
Disco looks like your being taken down by a certain sith lord
Holy crap! I am so out of my depth making my TK. Help!
Everything in this particular video is completely "extra" and in no way needs to be done for any build. If this all goes over your head dont' even worry about electronics.
I'm sure I could pick it up and I've messed with Arduino/Pis before. I just do not know anything about circuitry. Maybe it's time to learn.
Hello, I am quite lost at the EARS part. Could you please explain it bit more?
Sure. It's basically a small microphone-->amplifier--->headphone circuit. the microphone points out of the helmet and amplifies the outside sound into an earphone. This happens independently in each ear for a full stereo (lifelike) sound inside your helmet. This way you can hear what's going on around you!
Sorry for the delay. Yes i understand this part i get lost on wich wires run in to wich ports. Could you help me with this?
Oh sure, let me draw something up. I'll make it available to everyone via a link in the description.
ok
Actually just for organization, I added it to the github repository. github.com/PatchBOTS/CloneHelmetElectronics
I would not mind spending a few hundred dollars if you can do this for me. I'm just not good at technically or have time or the supplies for it. If I just cut off some bits so the armor fits,could I send it to you for the tech stuff?
Hi! I'm building a list of resources in Helmet Mods on the FISD/WhiteArmor.net
I had you listed as an interesting build, but I forgot to ask, do you have an account? No biggie if you don't, but if you did I wanted to tag you. If you're on WhiteArmor, I'm JZYL and the thread is called "Researching Helmet Mods"
That’s sick but u have no Fucking idea what I’m or your doing !
Too staticy
Could I lay you a lot of money to do this for me? I am far far too lazy
Is not clankers it’s clankas I THOUGHT YOU WERE A CLONE MY LIFE IS A LIE ( I’m just kidding )
