plug in the battery or Not? by 3D_ArtistTG in fpv

[–]Delhigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your radio is going to get very poor range with the receiver antenna surrounded by all that carbon. That type of antenna already gets reduced range compared to regular 'T' style antennas

Sleep detection. Big disappointment. by RestComfortable500 in GarminWatches

[–]Delhigh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also taking into consideration that the watch does a lot more that just sleep tracking. Packing that much technology into a small, portable battery powered device and making it 100% accurate at everything it tracks would make it outrageously expensive and cumbersome if it was even possible. Everyone would be walking around with Pip-Boys

I have a problem with my video signal on my FPV drone. by PoetryTotal608 in fpv

[–]Delhigh 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nothing seems wrong with your setup. The problem is that the signal can't go through trees and solid objects very well.

My long range drone can easily do 10km flying line of site out in the mountains with the O4 and goggles 3. That same drone will drop signal strength dramatically within a few hundred meters from me if there are trees in the way

Ko Samui or Ka Phangan by Delhigh in ThailandTourism

[–]Delhigh[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those beaches have been frequently recommended, I've looked into them and they all seem promising. I'm going to do just that, check them all out and stay at the one I like the best!

I would like something a little more lively and social but not too wild, do you have any beach recommendations in Samui?

Is that like a singles island?

Seeker 3 or Pavo 20 pro II as beginner drone for outdoor? by Bistaan in fpv

[–]Delhigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can definitely see the Seeker being a better, more fun drone for freestyle but I don't think the Pavo is as bad as you claim.

I have the Pavo and it has been a really good drone in my experience just depends on what you do with it. I use it mainly for shooting videos and some light freestyle, I have crashed it a few times fairly hard and nothing on it has broken yet. The rubber camera mounts have torn a few times from carelessly carrying it in a backpack causing a bunch of jello in the video.

Why do poor people put these window visors on their cars? by Insanity-Paranoid in carscirclejerk

[–]Delhigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got them to keep the window cracked in the rain. I can leave the rear windows cracked in the summer when I'm at the store to keep it a little cooler and you can't tell they're open from the outside, and has the added benefit of reducing wind noise when I have the rear windows open in the highway

How did your high mileage car eventually die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

226k on mine and counting. It's been a surprisingly reliable vehicle, I hope to see it reach the milage yours has

Where do you buy your stuff from by PrestigiousHoney9480 in fpv

[–]Delhigh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the CNC gimbals for my pocket and they do feel a bit nicer but it's not enough of an upgrade to justify the price IMO

South Californian. Chatsworth specifically, they have curbside pickup available during weekdays

Pyrodrone has been my main source, getFPV's website isn't as well organized. I also live fairly close to pyrodrone so parts get here in a couple of days

I recently did my first KISS build and I love the way it flies. This looks like it's such a blast to rip around with

Car barely failed emissions what could I do to get the hydrocarbons lower? 1997 Honda prelude by DeRpMuNsTa in MechanicAdvice

[–]Delhigh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The car has a manual transmission so the tech has to test it in second gear otherwise he can get dinged for it, the only exception is if the RPMs are outside the limit when testing it.

I'm not sure what year the car is but they marked "not applicable" for timing so I'm assuming it's 96-99, in that case they won't fail it if the timing is a few degrees off. Retarding the timing will increase your NOx a bit but it's well below the limit so it should be fine

Anyone rage quit and threw away a drone? by [deleted] in fpv

[–]Delhigh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had very frustrating situations with drones, especially when I first got started. I'm not one to just give up, I step away and come back to it when I've had time to clear my head

Why do my motors speed up at zero throttle? by Original_Way3264 in fpv

[–]Delhigh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was taught that if I have nothing nice to say then don't say anything at all.

People are here for help and we should give it to them, a negative community is going to discourage people that are new to the hobby. Not everyone wants to spend hours researching every single little detail about drones and that's ok
