The Master List: Xenopixel V3 Blade Effects
Unlike standard LED toys, Master-Grade Neopixel blades allow for individually addressable animations.
Ignition & Retraction Styles
These define how the light "travels" up and down the polycarbonate blade.
-
Standard: A smooth, cinematic scroll from the hilt to the tip.
-
Warp: A high-speed "jump to lightspeed" ignition.
-
Photon: A gradual build-up of intensity that mimics a powering-up reactor.
-
Stack: The blade ignites in "segments" that stack on top of each other.
-
Broken: Mimics a flickering, unstable ignition (perfect for Kylo Ren-style hilts).
Active Blade Animations
Once ignited, the blade can maintain several different visual states.
-
Stable: A solid, consistent beam of light (Classic Trilogy style).
-
Pulse: A slow, rhythmic "breathing" effect where the brightness undulates.
-
Fire Blade: A flickering, orange-to-red animation that travels up the blade.
-
Rainbow: A cycling spectrum of all 12+ primary colours.
-
Ghost Blade: A faded, translucent-looking effect where the light seems to trail.
-
Unstable: Random flickering and erratic light bursts for a "cracked kyber crystal" look.
Reactive Combat Effects
These effects are triggered by the 6-axis motion sensors inside your Replica Sabers hilt.
-
Flash-on-Clash (FoC): The blade flashes bright white at the point of impact.
-
Blaster Deflect: Small "bursts" of light travel down the blade when the hilt button is pressed.
-
Lock-up: A localised shimmering effect at the centre of the blade, mimicking two sabers clashing.
-
Tip Drag: The tip of the blade glows intense orange/white, simulating the saber cutting through a floor or wall.
-
Melt: The blade tip brightens significantly when held against a surface.
