3D model description

This is a cup that I created for Matilda the musical. There Cup is meant to give the illusion that it can be moved with her mind. On the bottom of the Cup is a custom hole that a small RC tank can fit in.

Update: I added a leveling block for the RC, and I add the ability to zip tie the Rc instead of the using hot Glue.

There is a hole in the bottom of the cup so that the RC antenna can pass through. So please NO WATER!!!

Info about the Tank
There is a small LED on the front of the tank that needs to be covered with gaff tape. The turret of the tank needs to be removed, something a small oscillator tool can take care of easily.

I was able to get the RC Tank from a Local Hobby Lobby. But here is a link to the type that was used

I did some experiments with the amount of infill on the cup. To keep the weight down and allow the effect to work don't go above 20%

I attached a small Neo magnet in the bottom of the cup. Then I attached another magnet to the newt. This way the newt does not go flying out.

Thank you and let the stench of rebellion fill your theater.
