Hello Friends,

We are getting so close to completing the animated TC project. The mechanics are the hardest part. While we continue I wanted to tell you about the ability to have your figure move and talk.

If you saw my post on the "talking tiger" you noted I used a cheap sound module from radio shack

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... Id=2102855

If we take this and use the rotation of the worm gear as a means of pushing the play back button we will enable the figure to talk as he moves.

I am telling you this early just in case you are planning on the moving tank commander foryour model. Space is limited inside, this is an early warning.

More to come!! :/

Okay my Brothers,

Here is the last part. Please use this technique and perfect it. 90% of you are 100% smarter than me and the other 10% are 50% smarter.

Enjoy it and I am looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Best


Don
