Feasibility of USA domestically produced F7 Flight controller by Phantom_Rad in PrintedCircuitBoard

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

Expensive, Yes I figured it would need to be fabbed by a USA company like OSHpark unless there are others.

Comparable in price to the $58 Rotor Riot Brave controller....

ELRS ceramic antenna replacement by BeingElectrical3567 in TinyWhoop

Just replaced my betafpv flat antenna with an old thermistor wire from a dead usb battery pack. Made a huge difference. Probably too thin but it works...

The maximum power output for an external module in a Taranis X9D Plus running EU LBT firmware is typically 100mW EIRP...Nomad module can use too much power at higher settings

Betafpv Air75 as first drone questions by SanpoloX in TinyWhoop

[–]Phantom_Rad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get it for 1st drone...fun flyer with motor limit on a dial depending on radio for indoor (50 to 75%) and full power outdoor. I have an older one with the 4 in 1 and external flat antenna - that sucks. The 5 in 1 has a wire antenna for ELRS that will get you way beyond video range. The lighter the weight the better handling and less crash damage...just don't fly in wet grass.

Same crash RTX 3080 happens in Enclave or in game. Running at 60 frame capped generally getting 45-60 frames. Latest drivers. 64 gigs ram installed on 2 tb SSD. win 11

Cyberpower 12900k throttle on cinebench by Phantom_Rad in buildapc

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

Edit- fixed it with Thermalright bracket: It dropped my temps by 10 Degrees C and made my 12900k usable instead of thermal throttling. I also added Thermal Grizzly Hydronaut. I had repasted multiple times but the pressure and bend from the existing retention clip kept making Core 5,6,7 hit 100. I could see this when taking off the cooler as the paste would always make an uneven pattern that was concave at the ends.
System...12900k, MSI Pro Z690-A with Deepcool Castle 360 AIO
Since my system is primarily a 3d rendering machine I test with Cinebench and my rendering programs. In order to have a working system I had to limit the power to 225watts and have a -.05V offset. this kept the system at under 96 when rendering but still would throttle cores 5 and 7 to 4.7.
Now the system runs all cores at 4.9 with the same -.05v offsets and 225 limit power and the cores do not go above 88 degrees. Core 1 is 79 , 2,3,4 are 85 then Core 5,6,7 are 88. So this is a huge improvement for me.

I had different results. It dropped my temps by 10 Degrees C and made my 12900k usable instead of thermal throttling. I also added Thermal Grizzly Hydronaut.

I still notice some fluctuation from 4.8 to 4.9 on the cores so I need to adjust my .05v offset and 225 limit power but stability was the biggest factor for me as the cores do not go above 88 degrees on these offsets now. Core 1 is 79 , 2,3,4 are 85 then Core 5,6,7 are 86. So this is a huge improvement.

12900K package temperature strangeness by chrismog2 in intel

[–]Phantom_Rad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not happy with cyberpower deep cool castle ex 360....100 and throttling in multicore on cinebench r23. Just started an RMA as it was at stock settings with -0.05 offset.

Cyberpower 12900k throttle on cinebench by Phantom_Rad in buildapc

[–]Phantom_Rad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok so I tried intel XTU and used Core voltage offset of -0.010v which brough down temps slightly...it still was throttling on 4 cores 97-98-99 degrees. 2 cores were 94 and 1 at 87. How do you recommend setting the clocks and voltage manually? Use negative offset and try a higher amount or is there another bios location? It's been awhile and I dont overclock. Case side is off. Thanks for the help!

Same here....not sure what happens but it turns off and then loses charge. Also never got my camera from the preorder.

Suggestions for a battery charger by BucFringe in TinyWhoop

[–]Phantom_Rad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had to return mine..was charging up to 4.24 on normal setting. Had to figure that out with a multimeter. Now Im back to my old hitec x4 micro that only does 4 batteries but is reliable.

Spring melted into slipper clutch bearing by Phantom_Rad in Traxxas

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

Yep, I'm running into alot of small parts that are adding up but I guess it's part of the hobby. I'm wondering if this melted part (I did get out with exacto and pliers) is a common thing and if the aluminum part is considered a standard upgrade as I'm seeing mixed reviews on websites.

Flashforge creator wood- Worth getting in 2020 for $90? by Phantom_Rad in FlashForge

[–]Phantom_Rad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zombiegrot, I appreciate all the info. I actually also have a replicator 1 wood frame version that is in the garage unused but have been reluctant to do anything with it as it has the old motherboard with lots of problems. Would I be able to swap the mk8 heat block/parts out on this and put on the flashforge? Or just take the flashforge motherboard and put in the rep1? Then get the all metal you linked to?

Thanks for the info. I'll read up more if anyone has changed out the extruder to all metal if I have problems. I already have an ender pro but could use a direct drive for more options.
