Fully working helmet electronics show off

Got this finished today and had to share it! My dream of a fully working helmet has been realized, I've been working on this alongside the rest of my suit and I'm thrilled with how its turned out! The helmet is a FP budget CC from Asok, beautiful base! I have a paint progress thread up on here as well.
Quick explanation of the electronic components, a self contained voice amp/modulator made from a radio shack amp board, a 1 1/2" speaker attached behind the dental node, a headset mic cut apart and wired into a power box with on/off switch. Working range finder lights, two flashing red and one solid green wired to a mercury tilt switch and button cell battery box. Finally a Hyperdyne servo control board and Hi-Tec 4.8v servo with a power switch and two momentary switch activation system. Enough detail ****, on with the video!

Nice! Love that its all self contained.

Also, i dont know if you can can help, since your not local,but i have the same rangefinder servo kit from hyperdyne, but i cant get it to work. It also has a wireless remote. Im a complete electronics idiot lol..you think theres any way you good help me figure it out?
 
Thanks man! I'm no master at this stuff or anything but I might be able to help :) What servo are you using? Brand name, model number if you have it, voltage etc. You're doing a remote hookup correct? So you got a little button fob with the board right? Have you done any soldering on the 9 pins of the board yet? One big thing is it works a whole lot better if the switches/remote lines don't touch at all. Post here or feel free to shoot me a pm and we'll try to get it goin!
 
Yep got a key fob thingy with the buttons. I got it second hand from someone who said they never got around to hooking it up, but some soldering was done. I'll shoot ya a PM with some pics so we dont clog up your thread here. thanks for any help bud.
 
Okay, sounds good to me, pics will definitely help. Second hand shouldn't be a problem, with some soldering done it could make for possible issues, but they can be fixed usually
