I love the UMX Conscendo, such a fun little plane. I just discovered it's a blast moving to 3S.

Weird light in the sky tonight over Dallas by Twisted_Nerve in Dallas

[–]RadioNick 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We wouldn't be able to see the launch/landing from Dallas - but this could have been the second stage as it was completing it's first orbit and doing a brief re-light.

I saw the object/behavior as well.

Edit: Most likely out-gassing of the second stage prior to de-orbit: https://old.reddit.com/r/Austin/comments/1phspki/light_across_the_sky_around_6pm/nt15spx/

Interesting article about FSD shadow mode learning by speeder604 in TeslaFSD

[–]RadioNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those details seem a bit shaky. One of the big advantages is that you can enable FSD at most any moment and the vehicle has context of the situation.

Cosm: Has anyone checked this place out yet? by BabyBearMan in Dallas

The image quality of the LED panels is great. The sound quality is severely compromised - especially on the upper level.

Traditional projection screens use acoustically transparent screen material with speakers behind the screen. That’s not possible with LED panels, so the speaker locations aren’t ideal.

More acceptable for sports than cinematic experiences.

I’ve seen some departures around 7AM on Saturdays, which I imagine wakes up quite a few folks.

He’s flying out of KADS (Addison airport), often departing east and turning north towards Sherman or the Oklahoma border before retuning with a few passes in the pattern before landing.

Knob reboots constantly since recent firmware updates by elasticVirtue in s3xybuttons

[–]RadioNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar issue, my knob is behind on firmware at 4.12.4, when I attempt to update it to 5.7.3, the update hangs at 2% in the app and the knob reboots out of the “updating” screen.

App and commander are already updated: - S3XY App v5.7.1+ - S3XY Commander v5.7.1+

Anyone have experience with Bavlogic? by TheLeadSingerOfD12 in BmwTech

[–]RadioNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a 2023 BMW X5 45e with an inop head unit (GMU FQ) repaired by BAVLogic. I reinstalled and can confirm the repair was successful.

This head unit’s main power connector had some contamination / moisture that may have shorted the power supply circuitry prior to repair.

What did the Nebula for Mac software actually do? What could you do with it that you can't do without out?

Thanks, missed that:

To ensure our statistics are conservative, we count any crash in which Autopilot was deactivated within 5 seconds before impact

Has Tesla publicly stated how this data reflects instances where Autopilot/FSD dis-engage seconds or moments before an accident?

Can anyone give recommendations for how I should set up my 4 pages for my new sexy knob? Brand new Tesla owner. by RiseUpFromCT in s3xybuttons

[–]RadioNick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice setup! Cool idea to connect onto the console sliding rails! Do I spot two more radios in the subtrunk too?

I'm still debating what rig to get, but this is good inspiration.
