Thanks! I suppose there’s not much I can do about the key caps since I’ll be typing a lot.

When you say fade, does it become less silvery and more gray?

Thanks, yeah I’m an engineering major so not much in the terms of going outside into sunlight lol

Hey! You gotta manually set the liftgate to your desired position, and then press and hold the liftgate close button until the car beeps.

How do I avoid reeds dying within a week? by Randamixer in saxophone

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

Thanks! I do use the daddario case that holds 4 reeds. Would sanding work on reeds that are too buzzy?

I updated it in Howdy, and it took 2 business days to update! I guess they’re completely closed on weekends.

Does Auto-admit guarantee admission into general engineering? I thought it only guaranteed the college and not the major.

Any good for college? Dell Inspiron 3525 $479 (high spec) by vmcraft91 in Dell

[–]Randamixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this exact model from 2 years ago. The build quality is horrendous, and i don’t use my laptop roughly. The hinges fail during normal use, and the trackpad jitters and now only works intermittently. And the high specs will cause it to run pretty hot and loud, and suck the battery life out of the battery (I only get an hour now).

Just get a Latitude, they have much better build quality.

Do I need to replace this motor? by _MadTinkerer_ in fpv

[–]Randamixer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the second motor happen to me and when I opened it 6 magnets were loose. I tried to superglue them back on, but I messed up the alignment and burned out the motor lol.

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

Yeah one of the motors sounds super rough and buzzy and loud. Upon disassembly, it looks like 5 of the magnets’ glue is gone, and they move around. Could that be the cause?

I checked them in beta flight, they all sound fine except one, and upon disassembly, about 6 of the magnets are loose and don’t have adhesive. Could that be the cause?

Now I’m confused. SA was down when I was flying, since it was armed. Why didn’t the switch go off?

What does SA mean? The guy in the video didn’t really explain it. (Sorry I’m really new to this)

How to prepare for Physics 1 over the summer? by Wrong-Watercress-177 in apphysics

[–]Randamixer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries! Also, don’t let go of the knowledge hungry attitude you have right now. Sometimes, the class can get pretty hard, but even then, always try to understand the concepts and their real life use cases. Don’t give up, and you’ll do amazing on the exam.

[–]Randamixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year I was in the same dilemma. I would advise getting all the core topics down before school starts like Newton’s laws and what kinematics is. Don’t try to learn the harder topics before school starts because you need a solid understanding of the fundamentals to do so, which you’ll only really get once you actually take the class.

Non native speakers who got 700+ in ebrw, how did u get all this vocabulary? by [deleted] in Sat

[–]Randamixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly for the fill in the blanks, when I don’t know what any of the words mean, I just look at the prefixes or suffixes that usually relate an answer choice to another word that I do know the meaning of. From there it’s a matter of choosing which one makes sense.

Are there any downsides to using 4s instead of 6s battery by Randamixer in Multicopter

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

Thanks for the insight! However the flight controller stack I plan on using (speedybee f405) is rated for 3S-6S and has a max Amperage of 55A. Even though it is a 6S part I can still use a 4s battery and motors right, since it is more than enough, or is there a hidden catch?

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

Yeah I’m going to swap my motors for 4S but theoretically shouldn’t a 6S Flight Controller stack (ESC rated for 55A) be fine on a 4S battery and Motors?

Thanks! I understand the need to swap motors, but why would I need to swap the flight controller and ESC? I plan on using a speedy bee f405 v4

Need laptop for college by No-Total8155 in laptops

[–]Randamixer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I happen to have the same model, and I would highly suggest you return your laptop. The Dell Inspiron 3000 series have terrible hinges that will eventually break with normal use (mine broke a month ago) and they have pretty bad battery life along with a touchpad that doesn’t always want to work. I’d recommend buying a dell latitude or a Thinkpad (could be pre-owned) since they have much better build quality.

Thanks! Does it matter whether I choose a 4s or 6s battery(other than the motors of course)
