Here is a look at the start of this project. I had thought about building a skydiver years ago and my interest in doing so has been sparked again. Here is what I have come up with so far.



Here is a rough plan. First I will cut plastic and mount the servos and the receiver.


Here you can see I have mounted the receiver and servos to the plastic. In the pages that follow. I will trim the plastic to lighten it as well as make a skydivers suit and add foam body parts to form the skydiver.


Here is a closer look at the radio tray.


Here is a look at the Transmitter. I rotated the stick on the left so it would move right and left. Then I added a small spring to hold the sticks to the inside. More details on this can be found on the pages ahead.


Here are a few thoughts as this project moves on.
