Panel Overview

A practical R2-D2 Builders panel about reducing the cost of an astromech build. The session likely covered choosing materials, prioritizing features, using simpler drive systems, finding affordable parts, avoiding expensive mistakes and deciding which details can be upgraded later. It was aimed at fans who wanted to build a droid but were intimidated by the price of highly accurate aluminum, resin or electronic components.
