  • A sequence of clips of take off sequences using my Scratchbuilt 1 foot Jupiter 2 and Fuel Barge as well as Moebius models Jupiter 2 and Space Pod.
    I built home made sets in my garage and backdrops. I added mechanically operated landing legs to Jupiter 2.
    All fusion core lighting is custom made by me.
    I used my iphone to capture these shots.

    This video is superb. The models are incredible. What a great hobby! When I was in grade school I used to doodle the Jupiter 2 all the time. I could never understand how they fit that giant engine room in there lol. I still get a thrill looking at the J2 and this video is very satisfying lol. I got to see the real models at the L.A. Museum of TV and Radio exhibition on October 16, 1997, the day of takeoff. Mark Goddard was there still looking very fine. They had the full sized Robot, and models of Jupiter 2 and the Chariot. It was fantastic. Great video. Thanks.

    Great model work and great video production! As a kid, I missed the original run of "The Derelict", the only 1st season episode in which the landing legs were seen. For a whole year, I didn't know the J2 had them. When the 2nd season started in Sept. 1966, the 3rd episode "The Ghost Planet" had a soft landing sequence... I remember just being blown away by the landing leg extension and retraction. Then not seen again until numerous 3rd season episodes. I never understood why all three legs needed steps, though.

    The original Space Pod filming miniature was quite an interesting little model. It had several animated parts. In addition to the large rotating antenna on top, the small periscope twisted back and forth and the right hand scanner on the from rocked up and down. They were all controlled by linkages to a single servo motor that operated all the animated features of the model simultaneously.
    Excellent job on your models, BTW.

    Then the Larger w/ Single Main Deck that's about 2 feet in diameter and finally both the Pod and Chariot witch needs a Lot of masking .
    And last but not least I've finished the Classic L O S Diorama of the giant alien cyclops and the J - 2 from the reimagine movie .

    Everyone seems to have forgotten that in the pilot, the landing gear would been rendered inoperable since it was buried under several hundred tons of Jupiter 2. Only when the Dr Smith character was added did it make an appearance. Also, the drive dome would have been sheered away or irreparably damaged during the crash landing.

    Incredible work!! Just as I recall the original shots of takeoffs and flying also from my childhood in the 60's. I would LOVE to see how you did the electronics for the fusion core and especially the overhead bubble. I don't like the few kits out there have a couple LEDs chasing on a board for the bubble. The real one looked like yours. Something like a then current day police bubble light. And then the landing Legs!! Works of art! C'mon man, don't be stingy show us how you did it. Share your knowledge with mankind. I built the first replica Knight Rider KITT 2000 back in 1988 from scratch and all my stuff worked. Dash, scan light EVERYTHING. Now there are KITS (no pun intended) out there you can buy or about 3 diff companies will turnkey them for you. Anyway If I just had some tips I think I'd know which direction to go in. Thanks!!!

    Great work. The only thing that doesn't quite measure up to the original FX shots are your smoke effects, only because, I suspect, your models aren't as big as the ones used by Lydecker. Other than that, not only do you faithfully recreate the original shots, but, improve on them, particularly in the case of the fuel barge. I particularly liked the next to last sequence of the J2 taking off from the night planet; not a shot we ever saw on the show. You could have made it even better by recreating the interior of the J2, but, I understand that you reproduced the model as it is seen in the series.

    Awesome job man. I love these LIS ships. I was pissed at the recent remake movie when they had what was a reasonable facsimile of the OG ship break apart to reveal the odd shaped splotch that was the new ship, awful. Not a great movie but could have at least left the ship intact, certainly would have increased my enjoyment (or tolerance) of it.

    Just found this. You have created a really faithful version of the fusion core. Kudos for that. I have not seen any others that I like enough to want to put into my J2 when I build it. They are often WAY too bright and regular. I love the landing gear retractions. Do they reverse as well- deploying rather than folding up?

      I have two mini motors which spin the top scanner and fusion core lights. The rotation is speed adjustable. The fusion core light pattern can be changed easily by switches and multiple wires that run through a slip ring. Everything including batteries are housed within a cylinder which screws up into the hull. The lights are squared shaped white LED type.

    That saucer could never have contained the pod, the chariot, the jet pack,the hydroponic growing system etc,etc. it was hardly large enough for the people. And they were sent into the unknown with no armament for the ship just evasive action. Irwin Allan did voyage to the bottom of the sea. The Seaview at least looked large enough for the flying sub.
