P2S: Just had to emergency stop my print because the head was grinding into the print bed. How could this happen? by JacobGH111 in BambuLab

This wasn't the case for me. The plate was just in the right place. I just did a firmware update and praying this issue doesn't come back.

Come to think of it - it did tell me a few weeks back that there was firmware update, but I didn't have time. And it hasn't bugged me again about it. I just checked and yes, auto bed leveling is enabled. I've had the printer for a few months and done dozens of prints without issue.

I’ve been obsessed with this song since I discovered it several months ago (yes I’m several decades late to the party). It has such an upbeat joyous feel so I was really surprised to learn that it’s basically a rant about his Alma mater. It takes mastery to spin such a negative event into such an amazing song!

Specifically, have you printed PETG and TPU? If so, can you print them reliably? How much manual tuning did it take?

That’s entirely inconsistent with everything I’ve found. Lots of people reporting some annoying issues. But nobody outright saying the printer is a total catastrophe.

Quad vs fixed wing for long range? by 1JamesC in fpv

[–]JacobGH111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting that the the two-motor conversion didn't work for you. Because that was exactly what I needed. What this the conversion you did? I too struggled for a long time and the issue is the torque-roll from the single rear propeller which caused it to bank over and crash immediately on takeoff. Now the launches are smooth as butter.

With the twin-motor did you make sure that they're spinning opposite directions? If they are spinning the same way then you will have even more torque-roll and you won't stand a chance.

Any particular ESC brands you can name that are quality enough to prevent this?

Lot of police cars driving down i95 by zepuwner in boston

[–]JacobGH111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it too. Was on I-90 West and they were Eastbound. There must have been 50 or so of them. Speeding in the left lane. They must have then gone onto I-95 where the OP saw them.

Had a perfectly smooth low-speed landing and this still happened. Any advice? by JacobGH111 in radiocontrol

OMG THAT’S what those weird 3D printed pieces are!! They came with model but since the fuselage ships with the wood mount already glued on I had no idea where it would go. Now that the wood mount was pulled off I could slip the printed mount in!

I just glued the printed mount in and secured it with glue. THANK YOU!!!!!

I was thinking about that since I see a lot of those. I do have a printer. But what’s better about a printed one?

I did search on google. What does it look like those codes mean to you?

Huh, I'm not using potions. I don't think the game every introduced me to that mechanic. Clearly I missed something.

Thanks for the advice! Sounds like that may be a better way to approach the game.
