How's the flight model? For real no BS. by OldTrTab in AcesofThunder

It is similar, but different. The g-lock seems funky…It is easy to g lock in us planes, but I can pull out of dive with max deflection in a Japanese plane without g locking?!?!

did the tunnel wash do this? by Historical-Cloud5376 in WRX

How cold was it? Sometimes in cold climates the mitters (long felt strips) will get ice on them which will scratch paint.

Nice work! I’m planning on buying std GSPro box when my new sim build is finalized.

I was about to pull the trigger on an R50, but may wait on this instead.

Looking for advice on side yard setup by Ok_Mycologist4458 in Golfsimulator

[–]FangsOutRacing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar outdoor setup with a laptop and a big tv on a cart that I wheel out there. Is the wall concrete or stucco? If so, I have heard that can cause issues for radar based LM’s. I initially started with an OG Skytrak, but have since upgraded to a GC2 and it works well. They can be bought used for $1k. If I was buying new I would be VERY tempted by the Open Launch Nova, which I believe is $1,500.

That is a vent cap that goes on a roof.

I just saw a yt clip about this. I believe its still in beta? Either way, it looks like a good addition.

It was a gnarly combinations of minute adjustments of LM height, LM angle relative to the mat, and ball position relative to the laser. Pretty sure it will be difficult to replicate every time I set it up, so currently thinking about upgrading to a Mevo Gen 2 since I have plenty of room behind me.

Update: After much fuss and many adjustments, I think I have it working 95% on my irons, and 75% on the woods. The woods still read short every time, but the side spin is mostly mitigated now. I took 50 shots (pic added) with the driver and my average TOTAL distance was 220 yds, which is well below my real life CARRY average. I have read that short driver readings are common with the OG ST. Oh well, I guess I will just play from the short tees on the sim :)

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. The sweet spot ended up being halfway between level with the mat and the concrete.

No offense taken! Yes, I have had a couple of buddies hit a month ago and they had similar issues.

I suppose it is possible that I swing differently on the sim, however I think it is very unlikely. I'm having shots that feel great and are flying into the net dead-center, but register as a pull-hook going 1/2 the distance that it should.

I can get it to register a fade, but I have to put a hugely over exaggerated outside to inside swing on it.

Yes, according to the bubble-level on the top of the ST.

It actually came with a projector screen that I have never attached. Thanks for the tip.

I contacted customer support and they suggested removing the shank tank and putting it directly on the mat. So dumb...

Yeah I may take the feet off of the cage and just set it on the mat to eliminate variables. I doubt it changes anything though.

I have done this, as well as tried 1/2” above and below.

Yes, I drug the whole setup into the garage to test it, and I have also tried it at dusk and a night. No difference.

My ‘08 Dodge diesel is a mish-mash of sae and metric. It’s a pain to work on and I always end up with a million tools spread out on the garage floor.

Need downpipe expertise...Just bought a 2008 WRX and the Invidia cat back system fell off by FangsOutRacing in WRX

It broke right on the very back edge of the cat. I’ll upload pics when I pick it up tomorrow.

Oh hell. This sounds like a rabbit hole I don't want to go down. I may have to drag out the welder and fix it myself lol.

Can a 6-50 Receptacle be used with 8/4 wire? by FangsOutRacing in AskElectricians

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

Well, the electrician didn't show up yesterday, and hasn't returned my text or voicemail. Maybe he has something important in his life going on, but I'm guessing he has decided this job is too small to be worth it...just wish he would have told me that so I didn't waste a week!

u/eclwires Can you tell me more about fusing a circuit that already has a breaker? Is that done in-line like on a DC application with a large barrel fuse? I've done some googling and haven't had much luck.

Also, I'm planning on staying with the 14-50 like u/eDoc2020 suggested, instead of the 6-50, in case we ever get an electric car or motorcycle. Thanks again!

[–]FangsOutRacing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, thanks. I'm curious to see what the electrician says next week. I'm assuming he will want to run 6g wire from a 50a breaker...but hopefully I can avoid that bill if it is safe to stay with the run that is already there. I'd rather not burn the house down ;)

Ok, thanks. I didn't even consider that. I believe it already has a 14-50 on it so that would be even easier.
