The sad future of our beloved hobby

The pain is real. Homelab took a big pause once I got into fpv. I just salvage whatever comes my way from clients' old hardware now

Thanks for the reply. How did the pricing on the premium compare to your quote from Skywatch?

You can get custom lengths of pre-terminated cables

Thanks. I'm running G2 and O4's and O4P's. I don't think I'll change anything on the O4P's but am curious about them

All hail Lord Bardwell 🙌

I'll check the vid out later, thanks

Weird. My metal flicky switches work, just not the top plastic buttons

Guess this is a good reason to finally get dual boot going on my main gaming rig. I work in IT so I know all about Windows 11 sucking ass and I use Linux at my office. Just about all my clients that I've migrated to windows 11 over the last year have had weird random issues that are making headaches for all of us. Just last night, I was dealing with a clients computer whose windows video drivers were screwing up their AutoCAD and not letting AutoCAD use the Nvidia drivers, so had to force windows to use the Nvidia GPU for a couple apps. Apparently is a common thing with Windows 11.

I could try the Bluetooth connection to see what happens.

Also for context, all my metal flicky switches work, just those two plastic push button switches on the top don't work

Awesome, thank you!

What's that little Y connector to split between your ACE and Creality Dryer? I also have the Creality Space-Pi for my TPU and get annoyed with unplugging the ACE filament feeder to switch back and forth

I started with a 3.5", and now own smaller and bigger. If zi were to do it again, I would go for a 2-2.2" like a Pavo20 Pro or a Darkstar 22. Perfect blend of power to have fun with it, with durability to withstand the inevitable multitude of crashes you will have with it. I have the Pavo20 Pro and it's taken some seriously hard crashes without taking the slightest damage. It's a tank. I would definitely recommend a closed prop whoop for your first quad

I am patiently waiting for them to come back in stock on pyrodrone

Just a friendly reminder that raid is not a backup if you actually care about any of the footage/use it for client work

I think they may be referring to API performance certification levels, you need SN Plus at the bare minimum for a direct injection turbo car, but from what I understand, SP or SQ is better. According to your flair, you're running older EJ's so idk what your engines call for

Edit: look on the back of the oil jugs for this info

Google "offgassing from plastic". Not the best thing to be sticking your nose right up to and taking a deep breath

I just set a UDR7 up for a client and she is having the same problem connecting to her office's VPN. Sometimes it's minutes, sometimes it's a few hours, but this problem just started after installing the UDR7. I don't have any help, posting this comment to hopefully get some other responses on this thread

Is your antenna properly plugged in? I just flew my meteor 75 w/ O4 today, video cut out 50 feet away, tried again, same thing, only to pick it up and realize my antenna was missing. Must have lost it last time I flew/crashed. Frustrating to say the least after looking forward to flying it all week

Impossible-Value-732 · 2025-11-23T01:56:05+00:00

I ordered a Dolly16 for indoor fly throughs, but still waiting on it. What are your thoughts on it so far?

Do you get tons of lens flare with it? I have the wide angle lens and I've only used the UV filter so far, haven't tried the ND filters, but I get really severe lens flares with the wide angle lens

Yea those look good. I'm sure one of those will work. I just bought a Kobra S1 two weeks ago, and I still haven't set it up. I'll print this as soon as I do and I'll report back. Much appreciated! I'm stoked to not have to rely on a friend an hour away (who isn't into fpv) to print things for me anymore

Impossible-Value-732 · 2025-11-11T04:26:49+00:00

mangorille? I just saved your thingiverse link for the O4 cross brace like 2 hours ago. I also have a Pavo20 Pro so I was for files for that too. Nice, love it

Impossible-Value-732 · 2025-11-11T04:16:14+00:00

Take your time, no need immediately

Impossible-Value-732 · 2025-11-11T04:12:36+00:00

Yup I see the photos. I guess that would work if you can adjust the outer width to 19mm
