    I built two of these now and today i started to build a helmet using "samurais motorization Kit" it bassicly uses elastic band instead of those helper arms so its much easier to install. Just as a tip. (I haven't finished building mind Yet)

    Nice job. Not sure if people know this, but if you read the instructions for the board, the power isn't supposed to be connected via usb to the board. The power bank USB is supposed to be rewired for a just connector that fits into the power in port so the board doesn't fry out. Usually the usb is meant to upload the sketch from arduino only. You can also double with crashworks too

    • @Darkwingdad
      @Darkwingdad  2 роки тому

      They recommend hardwiring which is mentioned in the video, not sure if using the usb would have altered effects. On the old boards I had it run through the usb & never had any problems but I supplied the hardwiring part in the video so it’s done to manufacturer standards.

    So does the board have a specific amount of travel it lets the servos go, or do the servos just stop at a certain point or when it feels resistence?

      They have a start and end pin & rotate 180* you just have to set the guide at the right point

    The Battery you listed Miady 2-Pack 5000mAh Mini Portable Charger, Power Pack with 5V 2.4A USB Output, Power Bank. Does it stay on all the time with the mask or will it randomly shut off? Why i ask is because crashworks3D Now sells the boards with a Penelope board for the power banks not to shut off but i didn't buy it :( so i need a battery pack with Always On function and these are on sale :).
