Star Wars Prop - Base Hacker System

Electronics Right Wing Control Panel Upgrades

Physical Fixes - Moving in Components in Away from the Edge and Replacing Top Screw in Screws with Side Bolts

There were constantly difficulties in closing the Hacker Prop properly due to components getting in the way and screwing the tip lids down repeatedly damaged the top panel.



Adding internal walls improved the fit and added a quick insertion, removal and enabled use of slip in and out of the box wings.

The right panel was simplified to enable moving the  components into the centre away from the edge.
 

Solution 2 - Place Components on Circuit Boards Not in

Wiring and Connect to Light up Switches with Junction Boxes

These new walls in combination with improving the electronics to all the componets bar the lit up switches is on a circut board including the resisters and a power on switch and LED on indicator.

This time some thick wires were soldered onto the light up switches to fit into cable junction boxes to connect to the power circuit boards which could then be screwed into the  wing base to hold them in place.

A second back up circuit board for the light up switches could be added.

The other battery boxes for the fake screen and electroluminescent light up wire were velcroed into place.
