Ver 3.2 - Visor Electronics

Well the Futaba linear conversion units were very close, but in the end did not have sufficient travel to fully open and close the visor as I need.

Moving on to an orbital hinge design and Firgelli linear actuators that have a matching stroke and power with enough speed that it won't look stupid :-p

Orbital hinges constructed from a mixture of aircraft grade aluminum and steel.
Will be ordering the Firgelli's in the next month or so.
