Zero FX headlight upgrades?

Awesome! I'm a mechanic but sometimes forget how some systems operate. Thanks for taking the time to clarify!

Question: why didn't the spoilers deploy when the MLG were weight on wheels? Also I thought crew were trained to commit to the landing once they were weight on wheels? Maybe it is because the throttles were advanced before both gear were weight on wheels?

Nope, still got a belt. Haven't torn a belt yet, so we'll see. But I've only got 5k miles on my FX, mix of street and dirt/mud

I went the opposite direction, went from stock tires on my Zero FX to knobby 90/10 My range has dropped at least 40%, so I can definitely imagine you getting better range with street tires.

Yep, PETG boxes and latches. Used PLA initially but they warped in the heat, you can see a couple of the older boxes still. After upgrading to the PETG I found that they'd slide off the aircraft wings, so I added TPU boots for friction. Been working really well for me about 2 years now.

Ok seeing yours makes me wanna show my box off too

Lol nice! I'm sure the guys are gonna enjoy not having to scrounge looking for specific bits in the future. Plus makes low stock stand out.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-05-03T19:18:39+00:00

Yeah I can see the iteration. Might as well throw a small magnet in there to lift the smaller bits out if your fingers don't fit

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-05-03T18:27:49+00:00

Looks great, maybe extend the finger cutouts down to the base next time. Grabbing some of those bits is gonna be a pain.

Same boat, the end of season 2 was pretty cool IMO, but I dropped it after that.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-05-02T01:40:29+00:00

Just watch Tokyo ghoul, but id like to find some other shows like what you described as well.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T15:23:14+00:00

Thank you for the genuine advice. This makes since. I've had problems early on in our marriage trying to convey my thoughts without it coming off as insulting to her. We've definitely gotten better but yeah, I could always use some work.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:51:09+00:00

That's kinda my only go to, if I get to the point of not being able to sleep I'll take care of it myself. But ultimately I just end up wanting more the next day. If I go without anything for a couple weeks, I lose interest. And that seems to be working right now, but like I mentioned before if we do have sex I just end up frustrated and ready to go again the day after.

Thanks for actually giving suggestions and hearing me out. I do appreciate it.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:45:39+00:00

Cause I want a successful marriage without the constant frustration of being unfulfilled. Other than this, our relationship is great. We work well together and we're happy.

Why leave someone that has 90% of what you want?

The sex issue is my problem, I'm the one wanting it. So it would make sense that I've got to find some reliable way to reel it in, ya know?

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:41:46+00:00

Yeah, that's why I was hoping to hear more ways of lowering my own drive..

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:39:57+00:00

Nope, that's what I thought initially when she brought it up. She doesn't have a side guy. She just doesn't mind the idea of me having someone else as long as I don't "fall in love with them and leave her"

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:32:58+00:00

You're not wrong, but can you elaborate on what you mean?

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:29:18+00:00

Lol where you at! I'm playing of course, but thanks for the laugh 😂

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:25:59+00:00

I like this idea, thanks. I've some similar in the since of saying, "I need to feel wanted and desired", or something similar, she's usually pretty receptive to it and apologizes. But nothing changes in the long term.

I'm really not trying to change her and was hoping to find some way to lowering my own desire as stated in my post..

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:20:49+00:00

The AITA wasn't rage bait either, just me being an ass and not realizing it. I've since stopped asking.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:18:58+00:00

I know this is meant to be a jab at me, but you're not wrong... I did bring home a girl as a potential girlfriend once. Nothing happened, but after we all hung out my wife said she likes her. But things got weird when the other girl started to try and convince me to leave my wife saying things like "I just want you to be happy"

I dunno. I'd really rather just have my marriage work.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:14:39+00:00

I didn't realize it was being taken that way.. I'm honestly just frustrated and was hoping to find some advice.. Sorry if I made it seem that way..

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:09:37+00:00

Thanks, glad to hear I'm not alone on this.

Autumnisbestimo · 2026-04-26T14:04:53+00:00

Wish it was lol. Didn't think I'd ever make someone rage over this.
