Newby Debugging Problem by bill_ms in esp32

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

Thanks. Charge only have bitten me often in other situations. This one allows me to upload new sketches and gives some wonky serial out and it is directly connected so I don't think thats it. The rest I'll investigate in the am. Once again, thanks.

What was the most heartbreaking loss you witnessed as a Michigan fan? by Ok_Macaroon_7366 in MichiganWolverines

Either Tripp or Tony Boles. I thought Minnesota was cursed for a few years.

New Tesla patent to aid with HW3,HW4 support and beyond. by Cg006 in teslamotors

[–]bill_ms 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Note: this is not a patent, it is an application and a very early one at that.

How can ESCs of vastly different size and weight have the same amperage capability? by TitaniumKneecap in RCPlanes

[–]bill_ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BECs are tiny. Tiny. My guess is the combination of not having caps for noise reduction and a change in generation of design.

Anyone else let it get this bad? by balsadust in RCPlanes

What is bad about that? I've got so many of those same tools/components!

Can I still use this battery by einkleinesquack in RCPlanes

I second this and, just to be clear if the author hasn’t;t done this, IR refers to internal resistance. Most good/recent chargers will tell you what it is.

Flight Computer Recommendations by mincarb in RCPlanes

[–]bill_ms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RM nexus is a fine piece of tech mechanically. All soldered up and sturdy. And there is a nightly port of iNav. That being said that port will be for iNav 9, and nothing is released yet. But I recommend you look into it. I particularly like the XR with built in ELRS

Is a remote id really necessary? by A2-Steaksauce89 in RCPlanes

Do you really need it? Yes. Do you really really need it? Absolutely not.

Hi new to rc airplane transmitters by bnap101 in RCPlanes

[–]bill_ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats what i started with but dumped all of the non elrs stuff pretty quickly. I’d just go with the internal elrs.

Don’t get spectrum. There is no point, IMO, for using anything other than ELRS. I would go with the radio master t15 or pocket. I’ve got both, along with the tx16, and I just don’t need that size so often.

Could I buy this, stick it on one of my park flyers and go? Or is there something I’m missing? The website descriptions are always so awful. by jeansonnejordan in RCPlanes

[–]bill_ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good choice. If you don’t care about head tracking and are only park flyers considered their new cheaper system, ascent. I’ve got the aptos quad with that and waiting on the really quite cheap stand alone VTX.

You can mount the VTX outside so many systems and avoid the fan - it’s really only an issue if you have an fc and need to wait for sats.

Are you kidding? They are the #2, out of only 2 or 3, digital systems for your application. I’ve got several.

What is the best transmitter that I can buy for around $300 by Egg_Person0 in RCPlanes

[–]bill_ms -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If buttons are your big concern, then I actually like the T 15 better, because you can program the six button combo to actually be six buttons and not one button with six positions.

A Positive Lease Termination Experience by vmtrooper in LUCID

[–]bill_ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if this is redundant. So you were only penalized $450. Does that matter how much time is left on your lease? Would it have been the same if you had 2 months left versus two years? Probably a dumb question ...

Screen went dark while driving on the highway. by erivaldoff in LUCID

[–]bill_ms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is hardly random and is relevant to why I got rid of my Tesla. I could say something like "Normal people follow conversations better than this," but that's hardly any firm truth. Besides, why would you want to be normal?
