LIRC in TIE fighter
The LIRC receiver itself is build to the
5x6 hole test board (13mm x 18mm). It's then placed to the cockpit of the
TIE fighter. For TIE fighter model I used AMT/ERTL Imperial TIE fighters
model kit #8438. Kit contains a stand and two fighters which other one is
used for this receiver. Stand for the model is self made from a piece of
wood and aluminum tube. It has 12m (about 40 feet) cable to connect to the
computer sitting at the another side of the room.Similar project inspired by this.
