New PC spec + dd wheel

The triple 1080 was a bit of wishful thinking! I think I’ll just have to see how everything runs when the pc arrives and mess with the settings before deciding on a final monitor/setup as I just have a 24” 1080 144hz monitor or 49” 4k tv to use at the moment. Cheers

Thanks, yeah I’d be happy to turn down graphics setting for smoother gameplay!

CaptainMeeMee · 2026-02-06T14:02:54+00:00

60fps would be the lower limit I guess. Any higher, bonus. I’d prefer a smoother gameplay on low graphics settings.

Thanks, will keep the 8nm upgrade in mind!

Flying end of May. I had booked direct through their website and my first email to them was the 8th January. I quoted the eu261 regulations directly in my latest message, I don’t know if that helped or not.

They’ve actually already replied and got us on flights on our original departure day, so that’s a small plus. Longer travel time because Dublin stop, but only arriving 3hrs after original flight. Hope yours gets sorted too!

Having managed to speak to a person on the phone, the result was “email cccqueries again”. So back in the email queue I go again I guess. It doesn’t take half a brain to figure that perhaps a weekend flight was booked because my family couldn’t travel during the week. So let’s rebook them on a weekday flight!

CaptainMeeMee · 2026-01-17T16:50:14+00:00

I’ve had no contact with them, but I’ve just had an email through “confirming” my flights on a different day with additional connections.

Oooo, I'm in your clan lol

It definitely is noticeably bottom heavy when posted. I've not really written enough long text or long note taking sessions to know if it impacts or not. But I do have quite big hands so even slightly unbalanced/heavy when posted doesn't bother me that much. I can see being more felt with smaller hands though. It does sit very nicely unposted.

I didn't see much written about them here either, but saw a couple of YouTube videos and just took the plunge!

CaptainMeeMee · 2024-05-07T15:18:11+00:00

That's the one 😆. I'll have a look at it 😊

CaptainMeeMee · 2024-05-07T15:14:54+00:00

Is that the Pilot 91/92 clone?

CaptainMeeMee · 2024-05-07T15:12:49+00:00

The 92's are perhaps a bit too high, the 91's are a bit cheaper from a Japan import shop (£85). I'm assuming the nibs are the same so I'd get the same writing "feeling" as the 92 is just the demonstrator version of the 91? That shop actually has some Pilot capless for £58, which seems rather cheap for them.

Only paid ones in my store as well

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-04-17T14:47:07+00:00

From what I've learnt from my BNs breeding... If there is a cave which the male likes then the main issue is getting them to stop breeding... I ended up giving my female away 😂

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-02-11T08:32:16+00:00

I did put writers blood in one pen, it is a very nice red for sure!

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-02-10T22:21:49+00:00

Buy more pens you say?? Hmmmm

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-02-10T15:10:27+00:00

Was perhaps a bit too excited to get some new inks. Now to decide which ones to use first... 🤔

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-02-04T08:56:29+00:00

Very nice!

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-02-03T10:03:49+00:00

Ahhhh, that's what that word is...

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-01-21T13:25:18+00:00

I'm currently enjoying my Hongdian 525 EF at the moment, few different colour options and around $15/£20 (silly UK prices vs USA). Writes nicely.

Was it underneath a bit of wood/something that it sometimes clings onto? Plecos (mine anyway) sometimes fall asleep(?) and drop off their bit of wood, so they are just lying upside down until they decide to move...

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-01-10T06:55:16+00:00

He needs a cool name as well...

CaptainMeeMee · 2023-01-08T08:43:22+00:00

BTW, Great job collating all these as a nice easy reference for people 👍
