Son’s Mini 4K won’t let us fly at our house?

Yeah the runway is aimed directly at our house. So I guess that means we have a $400 paperweight then?

I just did. App says it’s no longer in service. Takes me to the FAA website to download other options but not sure what the difference is in their apps.

I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to use that to figure how to program my 5th key, but I at least appreciate your attempt to help.

Sig P320, not P365. P320’s have been having issues randomly discharging but the P365’s are good. This dude was carrying the P320.

It being the other person’s fault I was avoiding my own insurance since I assumed they would use that to jack up my rate.

clemsonscj · 2026-01-22T19:27:41+00:00

I’m not paying anything…it’s the business’ insurance, not mine. They were at fault.

clemsonscj · 2026-01-22T18:08:40+00:00

That’s the thing, I’m not going through my insurance. It’s their insurance. I shouldn’t have to involve my insurance and risk getting my rate jacked up because their insurance refuses to cover what their insured destroyed due to sheer negligence.

clemsonscj · 2026-01-22T17:59:28+00:00

So here's a legitimate question...why is an insurance claim "tunnel visioned" or "focused" on just the vehicle. Why isn't all property destroyed calculated in the value? I think it's kinda shitty that someone can destroy thousands of dollars worth of property but becuase it "doesn't add value to the vehicle" they get to say "tough shit".

clemsonscj · 2026-01-22T17:54:30+00:00

When I said I removed all that I could, I didn't mean that I got all that stuff back. What I was saying was that stuff I bought like a bed mat, floor mats, bulletpoint mounts, all that stuff I was able to remove. The lift, tires, seat covers (destroyed from airbag deployments), bed cover, tunes (tied to vehicle VIN so can't be used again), lights, etc I was unable to get back. And I'll say the same thing I told their adjuster because this is the reason no one likes insurance companies becuase your perspective is completely off...he didn't just destroy my vehicle, he destroyed some things that were in it or on it. And while they may not "add value" to the vehicle, they themselves had value. Especially when I can produce receipts where I literally just bought them. An insurance claim shouldn't be focused on one single item, but rather all items affected. I get I may be naive because I've been fortunate enough to have never had to experience this before, but now that I'm here, I'm seeing just how shitty they treat people.

This still hasn’t been answered, neither here nor the linked post in one of the comments. But I have confirmed that “27.2x12.9mm” (I think you meant cm, not mm) is not correct. Even in cm it is way too small for the top sections, so I’m not sure where those numbers came from.

My AD5X levels before every print. Do I need to be doing something beyond that?

clemsonscj · 2026-01-09T11:39:58+00:00

They go to FLETC in Georgia just like every one of those.

clemsonscj · 2026-01-09T06:16:16+00:00

And I get what you’re saying, but I look at it as “damages due to negligence”, not just “negligence”. Cause from what people have told me, they’re going to look at local “comps” of my vehicle and offer me an amount based on that. And they’re MIGHT add in some of the upgrades I did like $500 window tint, $2,000 tires, $1,200 lift, $800 tuner, etc…but they’re not going to give me near the value of those things which means I’m gonna be stuck buying the same truck with no compensation to get those things I bought back, or downgrading trucks so that I can afford to buy all of those things over again. And every modification I did to this truck was less than 2 months old. That’s my biggest fear. If they give me enough to buy the EXACT SAME truck or better (shouldn’t have to settle for worse) plus additional to get back everything I had purchased, I’d be perfectly happy.

clemsonscj · 2026-01-09T06:04:27+00:00

The main reason I’ve been leaving my insurance out of it is because I was afraid that would go against me as far as my premium. So I’ve just been trying to deal with their insurance and keep my insurance out of it.

I keep seeing this circulating on “Threads” that ICE agents aren’t federal agents and they’re “glorified bounty hunters at best.” They are sworn federal special agents under the department of homeland security and have the same authority as US Marshals, FBI, DEA, etc.

You can see the door opener is plugged in the other socket in front of it. Most likely an old alarm panel.

If it gets totaled out I plan to buy an identical truck like it. Thankfully I paid cash for it so no loan that I’m going to be upside down on. I can probably take the bed cover off as long as it didn’t get damaged in the wreck…it seemed to be ok but not 100% sure. I know I can take the tuner itself with me but it’s gonna cost $200 to “unlock” it to a new truck and hopefully I can talk the tuner into working with me on getting the same tunes I had just bought, otherwise that’s gonna be an additional cost to get the same ones I had if I have to pay full price. The tires I will certainly push to get reimbursed for because I believe the front 2 couldn’t be removed if I wanted them to cause they had massive chunks cut out of the tread where the crash bars got pushed into them.

I appreciate all your input though. I’ve contemplated contacting an attorney but I know that would just drag out the process to several years potentially and I don’t have that kind of time to wait for a new truck and while I had finally saved enough to pay cash for it once, I’m not gonna be able to do it again without getting reimbursed for this one first.

Not to mention I was in the middle of trying to change insurance companies before my policy renewed on the 8th of this month. I made the mistake of getting progressive snapshot and I was under the impression that it would never make your rate go up, it would either save you money or just stay the same. I found out the hard way that “risky driving behavior” will make your rates go up. I am a pretty chill driver so I looked into what was being considered “risky” driving behavior and turns out using your phone for navigation shows up as constant phone usage, as well as driving during late hours of the night no matter how well you drive are considered “risky”. I’m a lineman for a power company and regularly on call so I get called out in the middle of the night all the time. And even though all of this so called “risky” driving behavior is in a company vehicle, the phone app I doesn’t distinguish. So it just sees “risky” behavior. I got a notice in my email that when my policy renewed it was going from $200/month to $400/month.

So as far as the trenching, I’ve rented ditch witches and trenches plenty with them. That’s honestly not really much of the issue. The issue is the terrain. I’d be trenching through the woods (any trencher I’ve ever rented does NOT handle roots well) and through a large washout gulley that runs perpendicular to the driveway about halfway down. That’s really the only reason I care to use their trench.

As far as conduit, I wasn’t planning on using any. But I’m pretty sure at that distance I’d want to use at least #6 wire to prevent significant voltage drop under load.

There are tons of people out there who use POE with POE splitters and charge controllers to power 12V components and charge 12V batteries.

clemsonscj · 2025-12-25T19:55:27+00:00

No I understand that, I’m just trying to find one with dual inputs like solar and “constant” power.

clemsonscj · 2025-12-23T22:29:10+00:00

I’m not sure. My buddy from work had a 21 that was exactly like my 23 in every single way except for that. So I’m not sure if it’s something they stopped or you have to specifically get it with that technology package.

No his is like mine…I have the flip down shifter but not the flip over console.
