Hello, all!
This is my first build and I really wanted to do a good job, especially since I managed to get a Woodchuck DC-15s Sidearm. I want to add some FX to it besides just painting and I had a few questions.
Here's what I want to add:
2 LEDs
- 1 at the muzzle for "blaster fire" slaved to a board so it flares when I pull the trigger
- 1 at the center section to glow when the system is turned on
1 speaker/sound board to be slaved to a switch already built into the trigger (Thanks again, Woodchuck!) that sounds off when the trigger is pulled
1 extra on/off switch to control the overall power
I looked at Plecter Labs, and even sent him an email, but he says it'll be a while before he does any more Blaster Core boards. DAE know of a good manufacturer for sound/light control boards? I have thought about using an Arduino Micro, but I'm not sure how that's going to work.
