I mean, they're not gonna kill ya' So if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock, They won't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off lightly, 'cause I would've given him a thrashing I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?
Imagine an ACTUAL suit of Power Armor. You know if he created the necessary parts for the T-60 and put them with the frame. Landslide win at any comic-con convention.
All jokes aside. This is beyond impressive. This man has shown that the basic shape and joint functions of Fallout power armor can be created. And this is just a prototype before the real thing is made. Which will be made of solid metal and dens rubber. It will operate on dense liquid hydraulics or magnetic servos to move the the joints as fast as a human can move. Only real challenge is the power source. The most powerful portable batteries created today are used for electric cars. Which are WAY to big and bulky and still don't hold enough juice to make power armor lift weight or run. But hey, Every year professionals robot builders are getting closer to making Fallout tech real. You just wait for it.
They would be designing something much more agile. It wouldn't be fallout style armour. Remember fallout design is 1950s nuclear era and future science fiction. Everything in fallout is big, bulky and awkward for a reason. They're making fun of the 1950s nuke culture in fallout.
US government..... give this man unlimited resources and funding already

NASA exo suits already have him beat. Also the US army have the power frames which makes throwing additional funding doubly redundant and near impossible to pull off in this corona economy.
Steven Self lol I really believed some engineer out west would build one of these for the West Coast cons. I was looking forward to seeing it on RU-vid they never built it so I got bored and figured I’ll give it a shot
If you could upgrade some motors and get some hydraulics in the arms, it could be an incredibly powerful suit! Imagine the possibilities, not just for armed combat, but for firefighters, police officers, and other workers. This is incredible, I love what you’ve done with it, it’s so accurate to the games, and that’s why it’s so damn impressive.
How cool is this? From an engineering perspective, I'm most impressed by the fact it is self supporting and stable enough to stand without falling over whilst getting in an out of it. Brilliantly done.
patriotic halo 13 hi In the game the arms are longer, however since i’m operating them with my real arms they had to be scaled accordingly. I found that many changes had to be made for this to work in the real work. Many of the opening mechanics as shown in the game simply wouldn’t work if they were built to scale. Chek my build pics at ray16120@instagram
patriotic halo 13 hi A couple reasons- In the game the hands on the suit are robot hands not the operator. When i tried templates for that design in the beginning i found the lower half of the arm ended up around 28” long and looked way out of proportion with the upper arm pieces. Also had to trim a considerable amount off of upper arm pieces at joints to get even basic movement. Short version is what you see in the game is a skin- looks great and the opening animations are sweet, but needs alot of modifying to work in the real world.
Anti-Communist Propaganda hi In the game they are hydraulic extensions, on mine they are just hockey gloves. :). I get alot of questions on this i may make a mini- video explaining it better
The power armor has mechanically controlled hands it seems. The power armor’s hands you see in game, in fallout 4 for example, are not gloves, per say. They are mechanical controlled hands, and the power armor’s operator’s actual hands are in the wrists of the power armor.
assuming your still working on this project in 2024, do what you will with it it’s a awesome project but if i were you i would attach some sort of gauntlet design that extends the arms with wires running through each finger leading to a trigger(like one you’d see on a wood stapler that you squeeze). so when you squeeze it, all fingers close like a fist. that way your arm length won’t look not proportionate to the rest of the suit and you’ll still have the ability to hold onto any prop you build too! again tho that’s just my two bits and either way i love what you got
wannabe vids hi Yes- a dozen times over the last year. I don’t get in the thing unless i have a helper with a jumper wire that can open it manually . I have come up with a fix and will be installing it during this nuka cola build.
Imagine the USA asking how u made this and then asking if they can hire u as an engineer to make a real power armor so they can deploy troops using the power armor
Power armor is pretty useless ngl. It is heavy, consumes alot of power and makes you a bigger target. Exoskeletons are what you're looking for. This frame is basically an exoskeleton.
They can already make it. They just can't power it. No power supply is small enough and strong enough. The Talos armor project is the closest thing, and it would be a huge advantage to be bulletproof against small arms fire, but they need a battery that could power it for several hours, at least.
@@sandermesila4904 The ability to be almost fully protected from small arms fire and even rifles would be the most powerful thing in the modern world, it is not useless at all, the fact is that it's also scary as shit, and may even intimidate enemies to the point of surrender. The amount of uses is insane but the main issue is power.
@@threestrikes9059 exactly, try to power a thing like that for a sustained period. Otherwise you might aswell have spent the money on a bunker, cause it would be better. Also, small arms and other rifles play a very small part in the modern battlefield, meaning it would still be virtually useless against foes, who have functional and up to date CAS
We nearly all the technology we need to start building real power armor suits. The only thing holding people back from doing it is the power source. In order to power a suit like that you would need something like a fusion core to power it for any significant length of time. Problem with that is if the fusion core ever gets damaged.... like if it gets shot for example. It might explode, and as we know with any battery the size of it's explosion is directly coupled to how much energy the battery contains. It would probably explode with enough power to vaporize the armor and anyone wearing it.
@@killman369547 fusion is almost impossible to manufacture into a small container like we saw. Scientist still dont know how to control it. If scientists ever find out how to put fusion into small cylinders, the fusion core would be worth millions.
That's so badass! Now THIS, THIS is how you'll convince me to enlist for the army. Just have me pilot one of these bad boys and all my life problems will just sink away into the void
you should make a mechanism in the hands similar to the actual power armor frame so the arm length matches up with the leg length and other than that good job
@@clownworldhereticmyron1018 I know, but in the other games, the power armor doesn't have a frame like that. The power armor in Fallout 3 is something you equip just like any other armor.
Have you though about using arm extensions with finger “tendons” to operate the fingers of the suits hand accordingly that way you have longer useable hands? If not that try to slim the front torso so the arms have a better reach around the body?
I can't believe my eyes, that was amazing. One suggestion, it may not be lore but starcraft marine style hands would make the whole arm look better. Please keep refining it for all of us fallout fans
Absolutely INSANE! wow, dude! That's incredible! That fact that it all works just like the game with the joints and the suit closing up. Impressive stuff! 😲😎🥹👍🏻 also, this sounds like its being filmed on some tesla energy beam camera thing or something! 😅
well ... sometimes i really love to live in this time, just to see what incredible things mankind can build even at home. what a amazing work .... respect.
All that's left is just to perfect the design to make it exactly like the one from Fallout 4 and then it'll be put to real world use. Keep doing the good work on that power armor frame.
Good luck making one out of metal, the power you'd need built into it just for the motors would be insane. Also the weight is gonna be insane so everything will need to be mechanical (and maybe some pneumatic) systems which just adds lot of complexity and weight. The US military has been trying for decades to make "power armor" and still have very little. This is just plastic, screws, and a few motors to give the impression its PA.
Exoskeleton frames like in Fallout that would have been able to carry the armor already exist, but yes, the power source issue still haven't been solved (yet).
@@killertruth186 I wasnt talking about such detail. Of course some type of armor where you don't need synthetic hands is more likely to happen since you don't really need something like that. I think bit smaller and faster Fallout-like armor that would fit a person will happen one day. Maybe sooner than we think.
@@CliffuckingBooth I actually liked the Fallout 4/Fallout 76 power armor better. Since if your hand is shot Irl (by a stray bullet or intentionally shot), you wouldn't be holding the gun anymore. Rifle or even pistol.
Zach Nichols hi My build pics are on my Instagram. (Ray16120) U will need “machine builder” or industrial maintenance skills to make it. But if you like to do that kinda stuff it’s been a great hobby
Get your own personal power armor frame now added alongside a child sized one for your little tike to become even more of a handful than he already is. Now on sale for $999.89 plus shipping and handling.
Navy poster and workshop. You sir must have been an engineer. Not that you ever stop being an engineer, I suppose. Congrats on getting it to work. Nice prototype.
Wow!! How heavy is it..? I notice that you seem to struggle walking in it- is it because of the size that you aren't used to, or just the sheer weight?
Cambrianna Forman hi It’s 70 lbs. mobility is pretty limited due to the size of the armor pieces. Im trying to fix alot of the problems with the next build.
I built something exactly the same but it had a fatal flaw lead to it being scrapped, it was made fully out of steel, the piping was made of aluminium, but the actual flaw was finding heavy duty servos that would not be too big and safe to operate, unfortunately exo technology doesn't exist properly yet and we'll, I just have it in storage for the most of its life, but your project seems more lighter, like 30x lighter than mine, my power armor frame weighs 43.2KG, I don't know pounds side, but challenging to lift, safe to say I need an actual power core to power it.
i like how this demonstrates the mechanism as something which is actually real. it becomes very easy to imagine someone making real, useful power armor this way. very cool!
No this is just demonstrating, plastic, screws and a few basic motors can make the suit open from behind (which we already knew could be done especially with plastic). I'd like to see him try and make any of this out of something heavier. The power consumption will grow drastically and the complexity would definitely need to increase as more motors would be required as you would now need assisted walking. The US gov has been doing this for decades and haven't made much progress.
This cosplays has alot of potential for more than just fallout. I could see something similar to this being made as the frame to a warhammer 40k suit of power armor
The reason the arms look stubby is that the hands of the suit in game are prosthetic, the operator’s hands are actually inside the forearm peice, except for that, it looks great!
