Making the shell template for the rocket launcher
04/14/2017 at 16:52 • 0 commentsA quick video I put on. More detailed video of what I've done coming soon. Will show the rocket launcher inside.
Will showcase rocket launcher inside in a while.

Forearm Launcher Part 3
03/30/2017 at 21:09 • 2 commentsAfter much time, sanding, cutting and gluing, I finally got a Rocket down. It is with a triple fin design and explosive when launched. Here is a picture:
I am getting some stainless steel cut for the forearm launcher cut (by me) tomorrow or on Wednesday. I am trying to use as little coding as possible for this part. I also am deciding what color it should be (black? red and yellow?).
As for the rocket, I am trying to take the hot glue out from the bottom. The hot glue gives the rocket a bad look. I have some schematics (not to be shown yet) for the launcher, and I will be integrating it soon. For now, I will be making the flight stabilizers and the exo suit. Things are gonna get real fun now.

Quick Update (Missiles, rockets, and burners
03/27/2017 at 19:18 • 0 commentsI just started on making the Rocket. It will be short and may have gunpowder in it. I might use solid rocket fuel or Co2 canisters. I am 1/4 finished, and will be starting on the wings of the rocket now. I am trying to make an RFID tag and I am trying to get a burn system. I am thinking of adding a fan under, but there may be unknown cooling ways, so I have to research that. I am using a 12v for now, but I will try to use an arc reactor, altough it is dangerous since it gives off gamma.

Forearm Launcher Part 2
03/24/2017 at 17:12 • 0 commentsIn part 2, I will be explaining how I plan to get an exosuit up. This will help for Rocket compression and flight stabilization. It will also (obviously) help the suit become stronger.
I first started out with what I would use for strength. I realized that pneumatic cylinders were the best way to go because of their works and that they won't leak liquid. I then went onto 3d modeling. I started out by using On-shape to make some CAD files. After some time, I came out with the realization to have it press down on the forearm.
I kept in mind I still wanted the iconic look of the stabilizers inside. I will probably have the stabilizers made by 3d modeling it then putting it into pepakura, then cutting it from a steel sheet have it made. I can also just 3d print it, bit it will not be very strong. I am going into cutting the forearm rocket launcher which will look like this:
**Schematics shown**The rockets will be from solid rocket engines and will need to have the flaps pop out. The kydex will stop me from getting extreme burns and the Exhaust repellent will be used to get the exhaust from shooting at me. The servo (there will be 2) will put the mechanism up and down from a servo tester.
Lucky for me I had 2 pneumatic cylinders lying around, so right now, I am in the process of cutting everything.

Making the forearm launcher Part 1
03/23/2017 at 21:51 • 0 commentsSo I found these files online and decided to print them out. I am currently having them be printed out by a friend. To scale, I first needed to find the scale, then had to add space for electronics, padding, kydex, and other things. I am about to start cutting some steel sheets for a forearm launcher. I am also programming the motherboard for RFID tags to control everything, and trying to Bluetooth sensors to Jarvis. I continue to ask myself how to get the gauntlet to have bio-metric sensors and open/close.
Here are some pictures of the 3d models wanted.

After this, I will start on developing the rocket systems and putting the 3d files together. I will start to also work on laser weaponry (forearm sentry, repulsor, and rocket guidance).
