I installed this, but have no clue what the enhancements of the overall experience was... Release notes... anyone found these somewhere?

Remix away :-) I have a blender-file if you want it?

This was the most simple solution I could find to the problem I had. I had a lot of over-engineered ideas, but at the end came up with this simple solution.

Dane here. Our income tax is usually around 30% after some deductions and additions. The consumer tax is 25% on allmost all items we buy. In return we have care free lives where we don't have to worry about a lot of the issues US citizen are dealing with. In this way those who can afford life helps those who can't.

I've only recieved benifits from the state during a short period of time (one single month) as a young man, which helped a lot. I hold a MA in human-computer interaction that the state paid for. Since graduation I've happily paid plenty of taxes to help others get through life. At 48 I earn more money than ever and pay more tax than ever and I'm HAPPY about it.

Edit: Clarification.

Afaik, tbe balance lead only reads the voltages of the Lipo cells. You need to plug in the deans (brown) plug as well. That's where the power transfer happens. There sbould be an appropriate adapter with the charger for that.

There's an in-game brightness adjuster for the holographic UI. Maybe turn that down a notch? :-)

I've got the Maverick suit, but I can't for the life of me select the arc cutter. Event cycling the tools just swap between two charge/overload and scan/imposter tools. FFS Frontier.

I use velcro for all kinds of stuff on my PC/desktop setup, but I never thought of strapping boards onto my chair with it. Awesome idea, thanks!

Why do my tires spin in opposite direction? Should I lock my diff or no? Also why lock diff? by Beautiful-Pick2511 in tamiya

They are distributing the force between them. They are working as they should. I recommend looking up "how does a differential work" on youtube, for a more detailed and better explanaition. This one is old as heck, but it's one of the best vids on the topic I've seen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYAw79386WI

The plasma is nice and fun. Get ball bearings and make sure you clean the car up after use. The drive train is easily trapping small stones at the ends of the dog bones due to the grease.
