R4Y0 my first astromech droid

[guabe]

I've been a member of the R2builders club for a little while and I have just completed my build this weekend. Well in reality its complete up to phase 2, phase 3 is adding some cool accesories like the periscope, gripper and cpu arms, but that will come later.

If you want to see how I mader him please check my build log over here > Build Log

His name is R4Y0 or "Rayo", spanish for Bolt.

Ok so here are some final pics of El Rayo

And here is a video showing off a few of his functions.

Incredible job! I love the colors you chose.

 

[doppelganger]

He is gorgeous. I REALLY want to build my own but have to complete first.

Well done indeed.

 

[Sluis Van Shipyards]

I like it and the name is perfect too!

 

[Redwillow]

Wow, just wow!

 

[Halliwax]

he came out great!

 

[guabe]

Thank you guys. Colo scheme was selected with Vader in mind, thats why it has lights on the coin slots.

Might be the coolest one I've seen.
Color scheme and the reasoning are right up my alley.
Thank you for sharing.

 

[Lichtbringer]

I LOVE that color combination, well done. :thumbsup

 

[Andymac84]

Very well done. How many alu parts (in percent) have you used?

 

[prostreetnotch]

The coin slot lights are a good idea!

 

[guabe]

Thanks a lot guys
Andymac84 I only have the dome, logic sorrounds, skins and feet made of alu. The rest is either wood or 3d printed parts.

oh quick upgrade I just did.

just got a few images of a Con that we attended, take a look at the slides here: Jedicon

and a few here:

Note: I had'nt installed the hoses at that time.

I like the title. "My first droid..." Sounds like another is on the way.

Awesome job. Rayo looks fantastic. I really like all the originality and all the thought that went into the name, colours, etc. Brilliant.
