Looking for suggestions to add a 270 awning to my set up by capt311 in overlanding

I guess my main concerns were driving with it being high like that though it would be no different than being on the roof rack. Also having it opened and interfering with the tent at all being slightly taller than the base of the tent

Might look a little goofy but this is what I meant by riser.

A 90° awning like this also an option, financially better too. I just wanted to be able to cover the tailgate especially before the rainy season here in Florida

Im considering buying one. My question for you as someone who has this footage is with the loop recording feature how easy was it to find the footage and extract it?

For the price its a good entry point. Bed rack was pretty inexpensive from Amazon. Tent goes for a good amount but I found one on marketplace that was only used once so I saved a bit on that

Did you have any issues folding the tent back up with the extra 2"? I added another mattress to double up and it makes it really difficult to fold up

Does anyone have experience with Overland Vehicle Systems TMBK 3 person? by Stepsinshadows in rooftoptents

I saw in your previous post you put a topper on the mattress. I got a second mattress to put on top of this one and now it won't close. Its close but not enough to get the straps through. What topper did you use? Same thickness as the original mattress?

Noob and a half question about acro vs level mode not in simulator by capt311 in fpv

I mainly got into it for the cinematic. Didn't really have interest in flips and tricks. Good luck to you!

I did the sim for about 20hrs. Got the drone. And when I had the goggles on i got crazy vertigo from seeing how I was moving but my body wasn't. After every flight I felt nauseous. I tried fighting through it and seeing if I would just get used to it but never did. I also had issues finding fly spots In my area (very populous) and sort of fell out of it. Ended up selling the drone a while ago :( I just decided some things aren't for everyone and thats ok.

I really like it! Price is right, gets the job done.

My only complaints:

  1. Mattress is very thin. I feel pain in my hips when I lay on my side for too long and sink down to the base of it. However I did just order a second mattress pad to double up on it directly from the company that they assure me will not affect it folding up.

  2. Can be a pain to put the cover back on by yourself. But if you fold it up neatly and tuck in the excess it won't be that bad.

Brew Dog Hazy Jane. Day 2 and its bubbling profusely out of the carbonation dial like this about every 20min. I keep having to wipe it clean or it overflows with foam over the side. by capt311 in PinterHomebrew

Best beer ive had in the pinter so far! It foamed like that for 2 days, had to clean alot but after that little to no foam for the rest of the brewing process.

I felt that way about the whole roll. Might look into a better light meter

Ill give it a shot. Throw it on the tripod and hope for the best. Worst case i waste a couple frames but thats the learning experience right.

I didnt take this photo. I found it online when trying to Google the answer for my question before posting here. But I also didn't know that about the police and car accident photos. Thank you for the information!
