<p>If you like the Rick and Morty flying car with lights you may want to check out my Death Stranding Bike with Sam and LED lights! <a href="https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/death-stranding-sam-on-his-bike-with-led-lights">https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/death-stranding-sam-on-his-bike-with-led-lights</a></p> <p>Or my Ecto-1 with Lights!!! <a href="https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/ecto-1-with-lights-and-sound-with-detailed-instruction">https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/ecto-1-with-lights-and-sound-with-detailed-instruction</a></p> <hr/> <p>Check out the pictures for the tutorial. If you can't find the dome i used you can use another half sphere. Just test your dome first with dome_test.stl! You can scale the model if necessary then.</p> <p>The finished car is about 9cm in height and the diameter is about 17cm.</p> <p>Enjoy! :)</p> <hr/> <p>Edit 21.08.2019</p> <p>Upgraded the Lights with an arduino and WS2812 LEDs.</p> <p> <figure class="media"> <oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1mGygE5pgc&amp;feature=youtu.be"></oembed> </figure> </p> <h3>Post-Printing</h3> <p><strong>Arduino Code</strong></p> <div><p><code><br/> include <fastled.h> =================== <p>#define LED_PIN 8</p> <p>#define NUM_LEDS 5</p> <p>#define BRIGHTNESS 100</p> <p>#define SATURATION 255</p> <p>#define COLOR 25</p> <p>#define DELAYTIME 10</p> <p>#define FADESTEPS 30</p> <p>CRGB leds[NUM_LEDS];</p> <p>void setup() {</p> <p>delay( 3000 ); // power-up safety delay</p> <p>FastLED.addLeds<ws2811, grb="" led_pin,="">(leds, NUM_LEDS).setCorrection( TypicalLEDStrip );</ws2811,></p> <p>FastLED.setBrightness( BRIGHTNESS );</p> <p>}</p> <p>void loop()</p> <p>{</p> <p>for(int i= 0; i &lt; NUM_LEDS; i++){</p> <p>for(int j = 0; j &lt; FADESTEPS; j++){</p> <p>leds[i].fadeLightBy( j* (255 / FADESTEPS ));</p> <p>if(j &gt; FADESTEPS/2){ leds[(i+2)%NUM_LEDS] = CHSV( COLOR, SATURATION, 254); }</p> <p>FastLED.show(); delay(DELAYTIME); } }</p> <p>}</p> </fastled.h></code></p></div> Category: Props
