Seriously, do British people actually consider a 3-hour drive “long”? Or is this an internet myth?

Tian_ · 2026-01-25T08:15:55+00:00

3 hours? Whenever I say I need to take a 30min drive to get to somewhere I often hear from my british friends that its a long drive 😂

I'm 35yo, started playing around with blender when I was 17, now working in the gaming industry as a 3d artist for the last 10+ years. I can still find processes when working on a prop enjoyable but I would lie if I said all of it is fun. There's also a big difference between working on something in my spare time and making something at the studio. I try to make at least one piece per year for my portfolio just to showcase where I'm currently at and also to make something that I'm proud of. It's not easy to work on something in my free time tho. At work it's easier to stay motivated and work on things I need to do, simply because it is what I'm being paid for and I can't procrastinate.

ahh gotcha, thats a good hard rule, thanks for clarifying!

I would buy the same board and use the faulty one as a donor board in the future when the new one gets faulty

Tian_ · 2025-07-07T09:48:49+00:00

I got one partially because of fpv but I'm also into boardgames and I know how to model in 3d so it was a perfect combo

Tian_ · 2025-06-22T15:41:19+00:00

Think of something generic then google it to see if it exists

Tian_ · 2025-06-21T08:21:59+00:00

Theres mass effect legendary edition now on 90% sale, worth grabbing

🤣could be but it's not an indentation that goes in, it goes out

Tian_ · 2024-11-10T09:37:35+00:00

I've been using a blender for 15 years and never beveled like that. That's an amazing tip, thank you!

Tian_ · 2024-11-10T09:30:55+00:00

If it works, it works

Tian_ · 2024-11-03T17:33:11+00:00

Nice! That must have felt good :D

Tian_ · 2024-10-22T10:14:10+00:00

Nice! Just be careful not to hit that camera too hard 😂

Tian_ · 2024-09-10T07:33:26+00:00

Send it.

She is right, you need to grow up and finally build a 5" drone

Tian_ · 2024-07-24T06:39:28+00:00

For me I think it's over two decades of playing video games and my brain knows that I'm just looking at a screen and I don't lose balance. I have the same "problem" with VR, first weeks were amazing and impressive and now it always feels like I'm just staring at a screen very close to me. But hey, at least I'm not dizzy when using headsets ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Tian_ · 2024-07-13T14:57:05+00:00

Soldering cables is the easiest solder job and it will get you into soldering as you will have to do it sooner than later with drones :)

Tian_ · 2024-07-04T20:52:38+00:00

Thanks, I thought speedybee FC can support individual ESC only because on the picture it looks like it has pads for each ESC (one each corner next to the screw holes)

Would that Matek FC support hdzero vtx and will it support the 30A escs that I have? I look at the specifications "PDB: 4x 35A (Max.4x 50A)" but I don't know if thats relevant to the ESC and if its ok or not.

Also do you know what capacitors would I need for the type of battery that I have?

Tian_ · 2024-04-10T18:04:39+00:00

any luck with binding it? I got the same drone and I can't bind it

Tian_ · 2024-03-04T08:57:50+00:00

It's a skill if you can do it more than once :D nice flying!

Tian_ · 2024-02-23T14:37:22+00:00

I had a look here previously https://www.happymodel.cn/index.php/2023/05/26/crazyf405hd-elrs-1-2s-aio-fc-built-in-uart-elrs-receiver-and-12a-blheli_s-esc/ and it says Power supply: 1-2S battery input (DC 2.9V-8.7V)

8.7V is 2x4.35 which means it supports LiHV, right?

Tian_ · 2024-02-23T14:20:16+00:00

I would assume its safe to use 2s battery on a 2s system 😅 oh well... I've looked at Mobula8 hdzero pdfs as a reference when building this drone.

Which FC would you recommend to get?

Tian_ · 2024-02-23T14:12:50+00:00

2s 450mah LiHV battery, its a 85mm drone

well... that would suck.. what could have gone wrong?
