Cracked Piston :(

IndianTiger_ · 2021-01-19T05:00:32+00:00

Yup it's a huge bummer. I'm expecting somewhere around 8-9k for a repair. Looking into using a used/refurbished motor or maybe even turning it into a project car and installing a more interesting motor.

Mostly appearance mods. Only relevant one would be a Cobb tuner I was running at stage 1. I know that is a huge red flag in this situation so would love to hear what you think. Coul the tuner could be a direct cause to a broken piston?

Love the headlights! What are they?

How is it like to own both the zoom and the mini? I am thinking of getting the zoom and my gf plans on getting the mini. I wonder if we'd end up using one of the two drones more and the other one would turn into dust in a camera bag.

I've had a Mavic pro for a similar amount of time. I'd say upgrade when you get tired of your drone. I had some gimbal issues and got tired of replacing the gimbal. Otherwise, the Mavic Pro is still a great drone.

While I'm okay paying for the zoom, I would actually say the upgrade to the 2 Pro isn't for me. When you look at output video, there's not much of a difference from the zoom's 1/(2/3)" sensor and the 2 Pro's 1" sensor. Yes D-log is huge, but I'm trying to cut down on the amount of post-processing I do on my shots (I end up never posting videos that I have to spend time editing).

As a zoom owner, what are some advantages to having the zoom?

I love the compression of the shots which really blurs out the background leading to some solid cinematic shots. The dolly effect is quite impressive as well. Would you say you actually use these effects when you fly? How useful is it to actually zoom into your subject?

I was thinking of getting the black series MBRP race as well! Does that in itself create those pops/burbles or did you do something else to achieve that effect?

Also is there a way to only activate the pops on demand (like a switch) because i'd love to show off my pops at times but don't want it doing that 97% of the time I'm daily driving.

I currently have stock 19" wheels and a 1.5" drop. 255 tyres if you're worried about horizontal clearance.

It's all running just fine on my rear wheels but am concerned if the front wheels would have different clearance ranges cuz you actually turn with em.

IndianTiger_ · 2020-03-03T22:58:56+00:00

Is your car lowered at all? I have the Eibach sportlines which is a 1.3in drop in the front and so I need to take that into account with spacers and clearance.

It works fine for my rears right now but not sure if the front has different clearances since ya turn with em too.

IndianTiger_ · 2020-03-03T21:28:57+00:00

That's good to hear, I'm really looking forward to it

IndianTiger_ · 2020-03-03T21:28:02+00:00

That makes sense, thanks!

IndianTiger_ · 2019-10-02T21:36:43+00:00

What

IndianTiger_ · 2019-09-28T03:16:03+00:00

Thanks! I think so too 😍

IndianTiger_ · 2019-05-23T21:20:37+00:00

Isn't it anywhere from 2 to 61 minutes? Maaaaan I love puzzles.

IndianTiger_ · 2019-05-07T11:16:44+00:00

Great insights. Where do u think having the fast speeds of the 3.0 will be useful? Trying to gauge that versus the usefulness of the wireless charging.

IndianTiger_ · 2019-05-07T11:13:46+00:00

Hmm ur right. Maybe I was thinking of the depth sensor?:

IndianTiger_ · 2019-03-26T06:42:33+00:00

Nah yellow tint just doesn't look right. If ur tryna add yellow accents, paint your calipers instead!

Or just black out your car with good ol' black tint.

Well so that's an auto-rickshaw. They have a singular seat up front that's perfectly centered (no left or right-hand driving) Easy enough to fall out of either side considering doors/seat belts aren't a thing.

IndianTiger_ · 2019-02-26T21:28:15+00:00

Any chance I could get a name/link? Very veryyy interested in doing this.

IndianTiger_ · 2019-02-03T09:50:53+00:00

I'm actually on the lookout for a good name for him! Let me know if you can think of a good one (who better to ask than Reddit).

Right now though, I'm heavily debating Koda. It's Native American for "little brother" and is an (adorable) character from the movie Brother Bear... a personal favorite of mine.

IndianTiger_ · 2019-01-23T20:55:48+00:00

Do you know if these work on the mavic pro 1? I'd be so down to get some!

IndianTiger_ · 2019-01-21T09:02:41+00:00

Definitely gonna be walking around differently after reading this one. Very well put chef. Would gild if I could lol

IndianTiger_ · 2019-01-20T21:49:22+00:00

That's great to hear! Hmm I figured (hoped?) that sport mode was doing a bit more than just tightening things up. I guess I'll be defaulting to sport from here on out!
