Morning all

I have been looking through this thread for a while, but there is a lot to read through, and I was wondering what sofware you have been using?

I've been using Pepakura Viewer from tamasoft.co.jp. but i can't find anywhere to resize them.

I am 6'2 so I will definitely need to resize them if they are in scale 23 haha

Most of us use Pepakura Designer from tamasoft. That's not a big investment for the advantages it gives. You can't scale the models with Pep Viewer but you can install Pep Designer without paying it. You won't be able to save the changes you do, but you can scale and print.

ah good, I'm getting on the right lines at least.

Any idea what scale I will need to put it in before printing?

I know Darkside501 said it was in scale 23 and I will need to upscale it before printing but i have no idea where or how to do this easily :facepalm

I can cange the hight and width so I suppose its just the matter of measuring my own body and a bit of trial and error

Indeed.

I'm 5'10'' and I use the scale 24.5. Depends on the proportions but for my height, it's between 24 and 24.5.

For 6'2'', you can try a scale between 25 and 25.5. And the measurement tool is really powerfull for scaling (2D menu -> edit mode -> measure distance between two points).

Should the handplate be at a lower scale then your chosen armor scale? cause it seems a bit big?

I use fiberglass.
I'm creating Joint rotation.
I do anywhere between 1 or 2 ?

Point 2 would be The ONLY Option. If ya did point one It would be less stable.

I made mine at point 2 and it worked perfectly

Yes, it should probably be scaled down a bit.

I don't think it would be less stable at point 1 but I think this may work out differently for different people so you may have to experiment with it and see what works best.

I'd like to use only one battery in my suit (sound system, lights, servos) This one is my favorite: ZIPPY Flightmax 5000mAh 4S1P 30C (DE Warehouse)

what do you think of it? Is there enough room for the battery in the back?

Hey darkside. I have a question. I tried downloading the helmet files for your latest update and when I try to open it on pepakura, it tweeks out. Any suggestions on what's causing that??

Great suit man! I love all the animatronics and it is so funny that you did the sound system cause I have been thinking about that since I saw Iron Man override the PA system in his first seen with Loki in The Avengers. It is awesome!

I'd like to use only one battery in my suit (sound system, lights, servos) This one is my favorite: ZIPPY Flightmax 5000mAh 4S1P 30C (DE Warehouse)

I would go with a different unit. Look for a Li-ion battery for a CCTV unit.
