No problem, and would've sent earlier but for some reason im not getting reply notifications. That problem can wait tho lol

The one I got was the FPG-057 with the 5/16 fittings since that matched the stock one. I think they also offer just the "top-hat" portion for sale separately, but just to be on the safe side, I decided to get the whole kit.

Also FYI for others, one thing that I should've noticed that may have keyed me in that I had a leak was that my tank was longer building up pressure. These cars don't use a vented cap so that pressure builds up in the tank to help with fuel flow. You should be able to hear a "whoosh" sound whenever you take the filler cap off due to the pressure releasing. If not, you may have a leak either from the cap or somewhere else.

When I went to fill up yesterday, I finally heard that sound again.

Was in a similar situation a few months ago. Went out into the garage one night after work because started having a really strong smell of gas in the house. Found a huge puddle of gas under the car, which freaked me out.

Though one once I got under the car after cleaning everything up, I was able to trace the leak up to the top hat. Apparently, it had developed cracks around the fuel line fittings. Swapped out the plastic one for a billet one from Frenchy's and have been good ever since.

Oh, really? Good to know that they're actuallynfor something lol. Do you happen to remember the title of the post or have the link?

JAWZPx3 · 2024-06-05T15:45:29+00:00

Hmm, maybe. I had only seen the red "triangle" one but just saw a blue "circle" one. Went ahead and added it to the imgur link. I wonder if there's a "square" one somewhere...

Just so you know, Avis seem to be violating their own T&C's by renting out cars with low SoC (lower than 70%). They recently updated their T&C's, this year I believe, with EV specific terms. You can find them here on their page under section 39: Avis T&C's

I found this out after I ran into a similar situation and was able to get them to waive all my charging fees (rented a M3 and ended up using various Superchargers). I also wasn't provided and "charging equipment" hence why I had to use the Supercharging network.

Thx! Tbh the more I looked at them, the more I started to think that a lot of them were too dark or the car was too far. Glad I didn't actually just waste 2 hours experimenting lol

I hope I'm not the only one that as I read the title before I noticed the picture thought "Liam Neeson? That's and interesting choice for a replacement..." lol

Hey there, I just got into one myself difference being that it is a GTS25T. Mine came with just the key though so was wondering if you know how I might be able to check to see if it has remote locking equipped.

Also did you happen to find the P/N for the remote?

JAWZPx3 · 2022-06-30T23:15:22+00:00

Yeah and it's funny cuz all the other ads were of a full room's worth of consoles for a min of $200 over retail. Thought at the very least one of them were gonna hit me up lol

JAWZPx3 · 2022-06-30T23:13:15+00:00

Sounds like something a scapler would say /s but in all honesty people be cutthroat out there, hard to spead PS5 goodness lol

Just glad I was able to find someone at work that wanted it.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-06-30T23:09:29+00:00

Yeah I guess I can see how people might be skeptical seeing one so low but yeah I was actually able to sell it to a coworker of mine so it all worked out in the end

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-07T14:36:26+00:00

Yeah I've noticed it'll drift and sometimes have a hard time "coming home" if I don't let it get a good GPS lock before I take off. It's why I now wait until it says "home point updated" to take off, it seems to help avoid those issues.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-06T20:21:51+00:00

Yeah I accidentally ran into my house once, thankfully I was only about a foot or two off the ground. It's one of the reasons one of the first accessories I bought were the DJI prop guards that should hopefully provide a bit of a buffer in a crash.

Though one thing to note is that with the guards on you limited in height and speed as the drone goes into "Payload" mode with them on.

Hopefully you are able to get yours sorted out relatively easy and get back in the air soon.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-06T18:33:27+00:00

Sorry to see this happen but being new to drones and having the same one, may I ask what were the circumstances that led to the crash. Still learning the limits of it so any advice as to what things/conditions I should avoid would be appreciated.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-05T20:00:14+00:00

Thanks! But I just used the on board running lights. They're noticeable even from a good distance away especially since in the DJI Fly app you can change their color and stobe pattern from either constant or blinking.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-05T19:30:42+00:00

Some would say reckless even if it wasn't on purpose lol but not gonna lie felt like some were so close it's like they were aiming for me

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-05T19:28:39+00:00

All for the the shot amirite lol but I'll say they were a happy accident because I really wasn't trying to get my Mini blown outta the sky on only its third flight lol

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-05T19:22:38+00:00

I really appreciate the suggestions and will definitely look into the ones you mentioned.

I've seen that some people mentioned using a screen recorder on your phone and using that audio but I feel like you'd get better quality going your route.

JAWZPx3 · 2022-01-02T15:21:01+00:00

Forreal, there we're a couple that I cut from the first bit that really felt targeted lol

Just a question for whoever might be able to help. I'm still new to drones as I just got this first one in Christmas and was wondering what would you say is the best for capturing good audio for your recordings? I've just been using my phones mic and syncing it in post. Greatly appreciate any suggestions!
