Introduction: Ghost Sky Lantern

By david
About: As a young kid, my curiosity in electronics was compelling.... why does thunder interrupt the radio reception? ....why does ROBOTs run without any wire?.... and I've been hooked on making thing ever since.

In the halloween ,

i wanna make a ghost lantern

in the night and in the air

as the halloween props !

Step 1: Material

dc-motor * 1

AAA battery * 2 AAA battery holder * 1

3 v Li battery * 2

3 v battery holder * 2

propeller * 1

IR receiver (arduino module) * 1

any IR remoter(arduino module as well)* 1

RY 1 : Solid State Relay * 1

D 1 : IN 60 * 1

C 1 : 100 uF * 1

R 1 : 2.2 M OHM * 1

LED(RED) * 2

flasher IC * 1

PCB * 1

red balloon * 1

breadboard * 1 (for prototype use)

Big white cloth * 1

TOOLS:

cutter * 1

soldering iron * 1

Step 2: Schematic

Schematic 1 : part 3 of running robot .

Schematic 2 : detail of control circuit.

Schematic 3 : detail of mechanical.

RY 1 : Solid State Relay ,

D1 : IN 60 ,

C1 : 100 uF ,

R1 : 2.2 M OHM .

IR receiver

IR remoter

Step 3: Prototype With Breadboard

about the red balloon you can use

H or He

to fill it.

Step 4: Soldering All Together

Step 5: Test Fly

i use a BBQ stick on the top, in order to stop

the balloon escaping out.

I put a red LED flasher circuit in the lantern.

you can change it as you like.
