John Daniels Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 I would like to Introduce the FC-742, a planetary defense turret. Featuring dual fusion cannons and a sleek futuristic look, the FC-742 is certain to deter any alien invasion. The turret has two functioning features; turret rotation and gun elevation, both controlled by the knobs on the back leg. The turret rotation is achieved with a basic 90 degree gearbox and a 12z double bevel gear connected to the turntable. Gun elevation is achieved with a 90 degree, offset gearbox and a worm to 24z gear reduction, the cannons mount directly to the 24z gear's axle. This creation was born out of the depths of boredom and quickly turned into an experiment in, "in system" angles and creating a sleek futuristic look using small panels. I hope that you have enjoyed my dabble into sci-fi Technic building. If you see any room for improvement or have need for another view than those shown here, drop a comment and I will see what I can do. Have a wonderful day, John Quote
