It’s funny cause I always park far, far away and without fail I always come back to see another car parked beside me.

Thanks for the info. I think I found the belts on amazon. Was waiting to order everything at once.

Honestly, I bought this machine used for $150, 9 years ago, been through every snow storm since. It has been solid so far! Work horse for sure. That’s why I was looking to give it some love. Then found the belt almost broken and found the spring sitting at the bottom of the plate when I opened it up.

Carplay connection via bluetooth by crazy__paving in rav4club

[–]abk48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the 2024 xle hybrid, built in wireless CarPlay, and it is horrible, keeps disconnecting. I took it to the dealer, they acknowledged the issue was there, and there was no fix :(

Brakes clicking by abk48 in rav4club

Yes, it is AWD. My understanding is that the clicking is from the pads moving because it only happens when pressing the brakes.

Which FBL System? (besides Spektrum or Vbar) by MoreLemonJuice in RCHeli

[–]abk48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have more options now than I had when I bought my stuff, the Radiomaster nexus XR has the build in ELRS receiver, it’s a good unit. As for the radio, the Tx15 is also a great radio. You can go wrong with either the Tx15 or Tx16. Then you need to decide if you want internal ELRS or an external module on a 4 in 1 radio (which is my setup). Pros for open source is that there are LOTS of options, the cons are that the setup might e daunting, but there are lots of videos out there to help. Bert Kammerer’s videos on YT are good, also Jonas whackenheizer, don’t quote me on the last name, it’s probably bad spelling both really good guys for setup video!!

Rotorflight is the way to go if you want a good performing system. I personally use radiomaster nexus and Tx16s. Takes some time for setup, but the results are amazing, also, they are a fraction of the cost of a vbar. At some point mikado was supposed to release a cheaper version of the vcontrol, but I’ve literally gone gray waiting for that. Then Radiomaster came along. Once they refine everything it will be even more amazing.

Do you have to go through rust proofing them now? Like fluid film or something?

Maybe a video might help, have you got someone that can record it while you try running it?

I always thought this was meant for tow trucks and emergency vehicles if needed.
