There was a 1st build years ago. All 2nd hand parts. A&A frame that needed heaps of work. A bunch of resin parts and a few other bits. Never quite got started/finished. Move to Australia, Divorced, moved house. Moved house again. Threw parts away. Idiot. Many dollars wasted. Lesson learnt.
NEW BUILD PLAN:
MARS Dome
Resin Parts
Senna Frame (Home made)
Alu Skins
Senna Legs (Home made)
Feet....Maybe Home made
Nothing flashy really, RC feet and dome. Lights and sound. More on that in my next less rushed post.
At present i feel no need for any dome panels needing to open. Again, that may change depending on flexibility of budget which is around $3500-4000.
That's Australian dollars.
That's, what, $12.50 US???
First thing I've been doing is taking advantage of work supplies and printing off full sized blueprints. This will help when dealing with leg templates and the Senna frame design. I'll be learning as i go when it comes to routing etc. Will be spending a butt load on new tools in the next few weeks. Can't wait to get going. In the mean time I'm just writing up some leg plans as per Victor Franco's leg tutorial. His build log has been immensely helpful already.
