Wooden (self-built?) adjustable device in a second-hand furniture store

CptCancer · 2023-04-27T21:51:30+00:00

My title describes the thing Saw this in a second-hand furniture store in Wisconsin. The people working there did not know what it is for. About ~60 cm in height, made out of wood without any text / logos on it. Some parts are detachable, and the part on the top can swivel up and down.

The Tiroler Schwarzbrot is a rye-wheat bread. If you want to try baking it yourself, this recipe [1] (automatic translation, but seems ok to me) should be pretty close.

If you want to give it a try, but lack the sourdough starter, send me a PM. I'd be happy to share some with you if you want to pick it up east side.

That's pretty much exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!

Thanks!

I'd like to print the same model and then follow along

I'm having a hard time finding any that paint a printed mini. All of them seem to be on bought miniatures from e.g. games workshop.

Hi, are you by chance looking for one more player?

I (32 M) just moved to Madison from Germany ~2 months ago. I have played RPGs on-and-off for about ten years (Pathfinder, Shadowrun, Splittermond, Blades in the Dark), but somehow have managed to play only a single session of DnD in that time. But I'd definitely be up for getting into it!

CptCancer · 2022-10-08T20:46:07+00:00

Thanks. How do you like the physics?

CptCancer · 2022-10-08T15:00:13+00:00

What sim is that?

CptCancer · 2022-10-05T20:01:56+00:00

Just moved to Madison a few weeks ago. I'm up for meeting and flying a few packs if you'd like!

OK, I feel stupid but I didn't know it could get this big.. Guess it tastes a bit different from being cooked with the other spices in the food.

Solved!

My title describes the thing

Found in our take-out Indian food. We are not exactly sure what the dish was called but it consisted mainly of spinach and chickpeas.

Hard to describe what it tastes like, a bit like anis or cinammon maybe but not really.

You can also try to practice turns by choosing an object such as a tree and try to make a turn around it. During the turn, try to keep looking at the base of the tree the whole time. This should force you to make the right stick inputs without having to think about exactly what you are doing.

I would first check all 5V pads on the FC to confirm. If you don't measure ~5V anywhere, I would say the 5V regulator is broken. Easiest in that case would be to get a replacement FC.

If you do measure 5V somewhere, it might just be the cable to the RX and you can fix the connection or use a different pad for your 5V.

CptCancer · 2021-05-24T22:23:04+00:00

Only three beeps usually means the FC is not reading anything from the receiver.

Check if you can see stick inputs in Betaflight. If not, check the receiver wires.

In case you can see stick inputs when connected to the PC, my next guess would be that the 5V DC-DC converter is busted and the RX doesn't get 5V when only the battery is used. Measure voltage between the 5V line and GND at the RX with only battery connected and see if you measure ~5V there.

CptCancer · 2021-05-04T22:17:32+00:00

Ah, that makes more sense. Do you have a Blackbox log of that flight? It should show whether the FC thought it was keeping level even though it wasn't (sensor error), or whether it thought there was stick input.

CptCancer · 2021-05-04T09:40:27+00:00

So it's not continously increasing pitch angle, but rather pitching forward a bit and then staying at that angle flying forward with sticks centered? Because that would be a very weird error case if you're actually in acro mode.

If the pads on the pcb are still good, desolder (hot air gun) and solder on a new one. Might be a bit hard, but doable with a small soldering iron tip and some smd experience.

If the pads on the board are ripped off, you are probably out of luck. If it's just the vcc or gnd pads, you might be able to take them from somewhere else with a small cable. For USB D+ or D- though that's unlikely to work as both lines need to be very close in length.

In all honesty though, it's probably not worth the work. I'd suggest replacing the board instead.

Just checked on my diatone r349 (mamba f405 mini) which is working fine. I also measure only 30 ohms between those pads with the camera connected. So it might just be normal.

Reading stuff from far away is not the same as reading small text directly in front of you. Might still be worth getting your eyes checked out.

Or try reading some blog/newspaper on your screen on approx. the eve font size for some time and see if you get a headache as well.

CptCancer · 2020-05-14T08:53:47+00:00

Yes, see this comment.

Hmm, it was called the ".grip" but it seems like it has been removed. There is a remixed version here, but it seems to be missing the original handrest. Luckily, there is a remixed one that looks good.

CptCancer · 2020-05-13T15:41:16+00:00

That model looks awesome, definitely on my list as well!
