Hello everyone!!! IT IS DONE!!! After what was the most extreme, brutal design phase I have ever had! THE PULSE RIFLE IS COMPLETE!!!!! :D WOOOHOOOO!!!!
First off, the design phase! So what took so long on the model was trying to fit everything I wanted into the model, while getting it all to work. The biggest time sink was making the moving slider. I wanted it to have a larger amount of movement than the ones I had before, but to make that work, I had to come up with a different system, as the space in this model is shockingly small! In some places, even a textra millimetre needed internally would be too much! But after weeks of fighting with the model, for weeks I finally got it all to fit in the model! wooohooo!!! Got to the final test to run the model under load! JUST TOO REALISE! THE POWER SUPPLY FOR THIS MODEL WAS NOT POWERFUL ENOUGH!!! The motor was drawing so much from the batteries that it was dropping the voltage too low. This reset the pico. not good XD good news though! I got it to work by using a better battery! Bad news! That space issue! There was just no way I could fit the battery into the model, so after weeks of work. I had to drop the recoiling slider.
on the good side! All the other features ARE AMAZING!!! The model has!
7 Segment display ammo counter!!
Ejecting grenade shell!!
Granade Trigger!
Trigger!!
and the slider! still moves back and forth manually! :D
and the big one for this model!!! sound!!!!! OH YES!! THIS MODEL HAS SOUND!! When you pull the trigger, you will hear the model fire, as well as the Granade trigger giving a nice thump! And don’t forget the click when reloading the mag! It's so cool!!! :D
The only downside to the sounds is that the code base has had to be rebuilt from the ground up! using a new code language! Called Rust! on the upside! RUST IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE, small low-power boards! It's soooo good!!! :D
Im really sorry for how long this model has taken. This is the first time I have sunk this much time into a feature for it not to work :( But on the upside! I have developed a bunch of new stuff that is gonna be really helpful in future models :D
I just wanted to say thank you! It’s your without you guys, there is no way I could build this insanity!!! THANK YOU! YOU ARE AWESOME!! :D
You can find the model here! happy printing :D
