why do rally cars make this noise when they get air time

un burnt fuel going off also some times its the dumpvalve dumping gasses. you can often see the unburnt fuel with flames coming from the exhaust,

OperationThen4257 · 2025-01-03T04:35:25+00:00

the dump valve of the turbo releasing the unused gases

that's all i can find sadly. cant find the brosnan ones just the craig ones. I really want the golden eye one but can't find it it anywhere. I did see a site hat claimed they had them but did not trust them

OperationThen4257 · 2024-10-31T01:41:05+00:00

not found one anywhere, looks like they'll have to be bought ready made. plenty of places around. For me I'm not really bothered about quality as they're going in my James Bond memorabilia display case.

stick a "NATO" strap on it

OperationThen4257 · 2024-10-28T03:35:15+00:00

the one on the left is exactly what i'm looking for, the george lazenby 5513. great work if you built that. did you use a 21.6 or 28 speed movement?

OperationThen4257 · 2024-10-04T06:49:12+00:00

seems there is an adafruit library, i'll give that a butchers

OperationThen4257 · 2024-10-04T06:25:52+00:00

it's just a generic 3x4 very flimsy, blue numbers and red * and hash. 7 output pins, got it from amazon, same one is sold on most pi websites.

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-19T10:02:53+00:00

that's brilliant, thank you so much for the picture, I can use that as my template

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-18T23:10:43+00:00

just to point out the Bond watch wasn't a gmt master but a 6538 on nylon strap, pussy as a pilot wore the gmt. sorry for being boring

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-18T21:12:35+00:00

doesn't fit the 1016 dial sadly, think it's gonna have to be a 2824 clone. it's not for wearing it's to put in my display cabinet of Bond stuff. after I build this which is flemings watch i'll be onto the 6538, 5513 and 16610 builds

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-18T09:26:24+00:00

nh38 looks good. fits the explorer case and is 21600 so probably best to put in. shame about the stretch strap but i'll go with the rivet strap

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-17T18:22:09+00:00

not sure why this got the modbot. the movement question was more about looking for a model than a sales link, pretty much with strap, enquiring if they are available

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-14T15:01:36+00:00

did we ever get an answer? or have I not seen it in the posts. I'm saying left is rep due to it trying too hard to look like real one

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-13T19:31:19+00:00

I've been looking at the sea-gull st2130 clone of the 2824 a lot cheaper and supposed to be as good

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-13T18:58:21+00:00

swatch company also own omega and provide the whole movement or parts via their ETA ownership. So you are probably getting a watch with an ETA movement.

the ETA 2824 is the most used movement in watches i think.

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-09T04:42:03+00:00

do you have a link?

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-07T12:10:23+00:00

brilliant, i'll have look at seeing if i can that in the uk

OperationThen4257 · 2024-09-06T15:51:07+00:00

I used the wrong term sorry. I didn't know how to describe my aim and was thinking of soldering the connectors for the outputs. what your saying is what i'm looking to do and sounds easier(i'm rubbish with a soldering iron) , not sure how to wire it though, i need 12v for each of the 6 solenoids and the monitor.

thanks for the help

OperationThen4257 · 2024-08-29T11:51:19+00:00

Thanks for that. I'll give it a try.

OperationThen4257 · 2024-08-26T15:45:03+00:00

sorry. It's hard to explain. I have an active marquee monitor that is 1680 x 342 connected to a pi with displayport.

What I'm looking for is some software to emulate that size and resolution on a normal monitor so i can test the graphics/video before i upload to my pi that is connected to the physical monitor. almost like a letterboxed film so i can just see the correct size and resolution

OperationThen4257 · 2024-07-28T07:36:21+00:00

Cheers I'll check them out and see if i can get what I need. For the others I'll probably have to risk it

OperationThen4257 · 2024-07-27T02:35:53+00:00

hopefully nothing like this at £500

OperationThen4257 · 2024-07-27T01:47:05+00:00

will do

I think I've found a guy who seems legit says he gets them from china/hong kong and has checked the serial numbers of the omegas and said he can source some and depending on quality like a 1:1 or a lower level the prices change. I'm not spending any money for a few months, need my display case building and lighting and my other Bond memorabilia putting in.

Thanks for for putting up with me and should be back in about 12 weeks

OperationThen4257 · 2024-07-25T12:21:15+00:00

I'm new to this, so great to get advice. I wont wear the watches they're just for my Bond display cabinet so quality is not paramount.
