Looks like it should be possible to fit a Raspberry Pi and/or an Arduino in to R2D2. Now as to how to program them, I am not sure as this stage. I am hoping they can be interfaced to the logic board that comes with r2d2. Started building R2D2 with the right leg. Some parts are only pushed together for now.

Added some more parts to the back of the right leg. Getting to have a fairly decent weight in it.

Finally added the last metal frame to the dome, along with all the bolts for holding it on, (all 14 of them). Also added the bottom footplate to the right leg. Latest issue is all done.

Added a bit more to the frame for the body. Looked at the official build to see how the two sections joined up. Using the spare countersunk screw to hold the parts together.

Body panels have been joined together and next week the rest of the frame will come. It will be a long time before the body panels and frames are connected.

Coming on very nicely, still got the fun part to do with the wiring yet. Mark
