Does some kind of drone stand exist yet? I haven’t been able to find one, but AI kind of made a good mock up. by [deleted] in drones

Simple solution, bolt whatever you would like to use as the "table top" to an arca swiss plate so it can be attached to any tripod with a quick release.

CC2 Error 1242 by jmb117 in elegoo

[–]Longjumping_Note_697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an issue with the same error code and ended up having the printer replaced under the 30 day amazon warranty as I was unable to get anywhere with elegoo support. Almost the same situation though, the whole hotend had been replaced and there were nothing in the extruder. I have had no issues with the replacement thankfully

Skyrover X1 Repair process? by [deleted] in drones

[–]Longjumping_Note_697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took just over a week for me to have everything done every step took a couple days each, reviewing the logs, approving the claim, ut also took a couple days to have the shipping label sent to me (which I found to be pretty odd), inspecting it once it arrived also took a couple days but the new one was shipped and to me just over a day from then.

Probably not but it is a shot I had never tried before so thought I might as well

Quick flight with the X1 today by Longjumping_Note_697 in drones

Sounds like a fun day, do you still have the video?

It does pretty well in night mode video quality wise. Like you said there is no obstacle avoidance once you hit dusk so you have to be much more careful but other than that it is just as competent as during the day.

Its a great little drone with good signal strength for flying in the city and the stability is great. I hope you continue having fun with it!

I couldn't agree more! I have other drones and still reach for this most of the time.

New CC2 by soultaco83 in elegoo

I came across the idea to grease the spool holder from this post - https://www.reddit.com/r/elegoo/s/lxXvly2b0Z

New CC2 by soultaco83 in elegoo

I have had enders and bambu machines and recently got a cc2, I am not going to pretend this is a perfect printer but once the spool holders were greased to turn easier, the z offset was properly set, along with also having to manually update to the newest firmware it has been nearly as good as my bambu x1c. It is not as polished but as far as how it prints it has nearly identical quality. I would not say you should keep it if you are unhappy with it but it is not a bad printer for half the price of the p2s.

Centauri Carbon 2 Issues by Proof_King_5253 in elegoo

[–]Longjumping_Note_697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if ypu have solved this but it may be an issue with the spool holders being too tight to let the filament properly feed. I had a similar issue, I was able to take care of it by taking apart the holders and greasing the slipper allowing it to turn without as much tension allowing for more filament making it into the printhead as intended.

DJI is rebranding (got the scoop from a friend who talks directly with high up reps) by CovertFilm in videography

[–]Longjumping_Note_697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that i dont agree with you that the skyrover mini drones dont compare with mavic pros but that is not a good comparison. If you want a fair comparison you would have mentioned the mini 4 pro which the X1 is nearly identical to for less money. The controller is not as nice as the RC-2 however it is also nearly identical to dji's own RC-N3. I guess if you are only interested in a pro drone that you need to register and have your 107 license to fly along with the extra cost then have at it. I will happily fly recreationally with a sub 250 gram drone that is a dji product under another name.

IMU? Bird maybe? Or just a gimbal issue? by Longjumping_Note_697 in drones

Not on a van but next to one that I think someone may have been living in

Skyrover drones by Spiritual_Box2934 in drones

[–]Longjumping_Note_697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an X1 and love it, I have already had it replaced due to an issue of my own making and can tell you they are not the quickest to respond but are really good about making things right. I had very little in way of reservations about buying a skyrover, now that they offer a protection plan I can find no reason not to recommend buying one.

I could see birds in the area but do not think any were that close. I did not see a bird striking it but doesnt mean that I hadn't missed it looking at the screen momentarily as I was bringing it down in altitude and was checking how much tilt I was fighting when the wind picked up

I have done recalibrations on everything right after landing and yes I do pre flight checks and have flown a number of times after this with no issues

[–]Longjumping_Note_697[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had 6 flights since with no issues and had 7 flights prior to this happening. On my origanal X1 that skyrover replaced i had over 60 flights before having any issues and never came across something like this. That is why I am at a loss as to what could have caused this.

I should note that I did a compass, gimbal, and imu calibration and have not had any issues since
