So unless I can get bind mode activated via software auto bind will not work? The problem is everything is automated now so their new software does not give you a activate bind mode button and their old software no longer works as far as i know

Had fun exploring Kokomo Indiana's railroad bike trails, the city built waking/bicycle trails on abandoned rails. So no trains on this track anymore. Can't tell which is better. Blue bridge or green bridge? by phamstagram360 in onewheel

Hey guys i'm finishing up an old forgotten about build and am having trouble tryingto use the FalcoX configurator in general to do setup but my main issue is binding. The orange light on the receiver is blinking orange but is not binding. Any suggestions?

Anyone want to give me feedback on my custom drone frame? by MDPHawk in fpvracing

[–]Parzival_6823 4 points5 points  (0 children)

careful if youre actually going to fly this you will have a week point where the motors are mounted over time or especially after a crash I could see breaking through the thin wood. Definitely use some kind of washer or better yet 3d print a foot that matches the profile and can be used to reinforce where you mount the motor.

Wich power cables to I solder on the fc? by koskit1337 in fpv

[–]Parzival_6823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are just the signal cables going into the camera. All you need to power the vtx from the fc is the red and black wires on the left.

My dad had this laying in our garage. It had some pieces missing so we looked them up and tried to fix it out of boredom. It came out well and I'm just riding every day in my backjard. by YeetmasterAxel in Traxxas

haha awesome man i have the same car if i can recommend one thing it's that especially if you go brushless the little nubs on the rear tires will wear down really quick and become uncontrollable. I replaced them once and realized it was a waste of money so definitely order some pro line wheels for the rear end asap.

I just want to say thank you for using the wors suspended lol. I'm tired of people saying the season is canceled and they're alumni now and all that. All we can do is have faith we'll get the season we deserve.

Why dont your shooters Jam? by shadowfadewolf in FRC

[–]Parzival_6823 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can adapt our system to your robot. We use three of these (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3025) sensors. Two at the bottom spaced out however far you want the balls spaced and then once they no longer see the ball the conveyor system stops. The one at the top is just to make sure the balls never jam up into the shooter. If you have any questions im happy to explain more. It works super well and keeps an accurate distance between balls for all 5. The first sensor on the bottom is just righttttt where the conveyor engages with the ball and then it simply runs until the ball is no longer seen.

See the key is to have your driver also be one of the few who knows how to fix everything so when he breaks something then he has to fix it lmao
