SWTOR Astromech Droid 1:1 (Motorized, Arduino Ready)

A life-size astromech droid inspired by the designs from Star Wars: The Old Republic.

This model was created as a combination of hand-designed parts and AI-assisted modeling. It is optimized for 3D printing and designed to be accessible to makers who want to build a large display piece or a functional robotic project.

Features

• Full-scale (1:1) astromech droid

• Supports motorized drive systems

• Arduino compatible

• Tested with HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor

• Compatible with 1.3" OLED displays

• Modular design for easy customization

• Electronics can be adapted to your own hardware

Assembly

The model was assembled using a combination of:

• M3 screws

• M6 screws and nuts

• M10 screws and nuts

Larger printed parts were bonded using Loctite Super Bond cyanoacrylate adhesive.

Depending on your printer's tolerances, some holes may require minor cleanup, scale up or reaming before assembly.

Electronics

The prototype uses:

• Arduino controller

• HC-SR04 ultrasonic distance sensor

• 1.3" OLED display

• DC geared motors

Motor used in the prototype:

Can be adapted to different controllers, sensors, displays, motor drivers, or drive systems.

Notes

This is a fan-made project inspired by SWTOR and intended for personal, non-commercial use. Some parts of the design were created manually while others were developed with the assistance of AI tools.

If you build one, I would love to see your make and any modifications you add to the design. May the Dark side be with you!
