1:13 "If you can't open it, you don't own it." My new favorite catchphrase!

your workshop is cool dude

That's freaking badass. I'll probably never make it, but it looks cool.

all of makemagazine and maker shed videos are great

Very good project i loved it!

You can also turn any screw into a standard slotted or philips head screw with a dremel, That's what I usually do. :)

Did you know that you can make your own triwing screwdriver by heating a ballpoint pen and pushing it in the screw. Wait for it to cool off and their you have it. It might take a few tries but it works, I used that trick to unscrew my gamecube open a couple of years ago.

good luck getting that on a coaster,or even in the park.

the airport securyty will never let this on the plane it looks like explosive

That is awesome

yes,because the interface,pins and everything is diferent on the duemilanove.

So the script on makers magazine will only work for the duemilanove? (Can't get this one in my country)

Glue, unidirectional screws, or voiding the manufacturer's warranty never stopped me from opening anything. :-)

I get the following error when trying to upload the program. Any suggestions? "OUTPUT" was not declared in this scope. With 15 lines of text. There appears to be an issue with the program.

does anyone know where i can get a wii chuck adapter? if so please tell me

why did you open the nunchuk if you close it right after?

Do you think an Ardunio Uno Rev3 would work?

Where did you get the LCD screen from

How did they video tape him he was in the front car?

i like this guy

instead of using plexiglass to seal it, u can get the clear version of this case and cut the lcd slot into the rubber insert and attach it to that. also why not take apart the nunchuck and mount the guts of it inside the case?

What kind of box did you use?

awsome, how much does a wiichuck cost?

can l use the lcd from the telephone

That was cool, but could you tell us how to store the data to upload on the computer?

cooool i wanna make one but i don't have any idea from where i can buy these stuff in Manhattan

you can buy a tri axis accelerometer from parallax. I they might have it in makershed as well. so you can lose the wii remote.

What code of honor? I didn't sigh up for this Steve!

that is so cool, i love this, it is i am sad to say it, better that bre pettis's weekend projects

I dont see the meaning of having a small display on it on a rollercoaster, it's not like you're gonna sit and look at it all the time. I'd personally go with a memory of some kind, so I can look at it later. Also, if I'd used a nunchuck, I would've taken the casing of it, and then I'd mount it inside the yellow case.

Great build, really intresting and I'll have to try to make one of these. But I gotta say, wtf? The Orange Streak? Rock Bottom Plunge at the MOA would of been a much better roller coaster to use to test high-g's.

Anyone who can tell me which arduino he's using?

yes it will

isnt it illegal to take a camera on a rollercoaster?

just ordered the parts for this project, came to about $90 :( but it will be worth it!

2:05 cross promo!

whats the name of the adapter we ....

Wii chuck adapter. After 5 years

Any one else realize he is trying to pitch the ball when he should have been trying to swing?

Interesting.

it's an Arduino duemilanove!

it looks like a bomb

Instead of a wii-chuck, why not use an accelerometer and some buttons from your friendly neiborhood Radio Shack?

If you can't open it, you don't own it. I can open anything.

even carying the thing how he did would make it dangerous and security should have kicked him out also unless the camera was areo dynamic it could stall the wind resistance on the front good device i just wana know how he filmed that bit

when he is filmed up close hes not in the front wagon :P

I never got the "bill of rights"

OH SHIT ITS A BOMB!

LOL He's really up at bat in baseball, not the pitcher lol. Hence why he's swinging too early, oh well lol

2009 WOW

You don't have to use a WiiChuk, you can just order a 3-axis accelerometer module designed for arduino from eBay, then you can get the whole device inside the box. I ordered one a few days ago from China for 1.00 USD. Also, if you're just going to cut the box open, skip the expensive Pelican case and get something off brand. Same plastic, just as waterproof, and half the price.

That's right. A triaxial accelerometer like ADXL could replace the wiichuk and the whole thing could be much smaller like pocket sized.

2019 anyone?

pretty cool but, I bet ya if someone saw you on a rollercoaster with that box youd be tazered faster then you could say guantanamo lol. looks awfully much like a bomb dude. anyway cool video.

haha he was playing the wii baseball wrong

Dremel is just a brand of rotary cutting tools, not all the tools are called dremel,duhh..

i am literally sitting next to an arduino

Seriously!

WHAT!!

Hm... Well i flew in a Plane and we pulled nearly 5g and i was able to breath... no problem... and at 8g you arent dead, you only get a "blackout" because your blood sinks down into your feet. Negative Gs are more "painful" i think :-D Blood pressure in your head going up xD -> redout(not dead!)

any Arduino will work, but if you use a duemilanove you already have everything scripted and you dont need to write your own script for another arduino.

@nokia789456123 wow i was thinking the same lmao!

Funding for Make from Geek squad?? I'm pretty sure anyone subscribed to make magazine would NEVER call geek squad.

alota people including me think it looks alot like a bomb

Ladies and Gents, at 4:40, why not to cut plastic with a dremel on HIGH speed it melts the plastic and u get molten plastic whipped into your face... fun? no

Yeah, totally not a bomb. No way anyone like the TSA or park security would mistake it for that. /s

LOL

like 20 bucks

first

false. pilots in f-16 and other planes like that gets 9 g when they are ejected only for a couple of seconds tho

if you cant open it you cant own it, try to open a useless machine
