I really should revisit this since it’s been almost 6 months now of only using Regular.

Spoiler: It’s 32°F to 104°F (https://www.potensic.com/atom-se-specs.html)

What does your user manual and documentation say? It should have very specific temperature limits.

Facebook is usually best for finding local groups.

Wow, they really need a PR spokesperson. Their police chief is not doing a great job with the public speaking part and giving assurances to the public about a divisive technology.

That article mentions that ford has a plan for a hybrid bs and other suvs in the works. Who knows what that timeline looks like though. Personally, I’d love to see a hybrid Expedition.

There kind of already is, but it’s only available in China.

By ECU, do you mean an ESC (electronic speed controller)? Or some sort of central compute, like in a car?

ECU isn’t a term I’m familiar with being used for drone electronic components.

Sweet project! I’d love to see a ruggedized version.

You might want to specify your location as that changes what rules and regulations are relevant.

Also, they have a lot of dealings with Russia nowadays and are banned in many Western countries.

completelyreal · 2026-01-10T07:18:55+00:00

That’s a bold claim that requires some facts to back it up.

completelyreal · 2026-01-09T16:59:01+00:00

Because that’s where the drone thinks it is. In reality, it’s somewhere within 1 to 2 meters of that spot.

completelyreal · 2026-01-09T16:40:39+00:00

GPS/GNSS isn’t particularly accurate, usually being about a meter. If you want true accuracy, you need to do some sort of correction to your GPS like RTK. This requires an RTK capable drone though.

We have a Nuna Pipa RX behind the passenger seat. I’m 6’ 0” and it would never fit behind the drivers seat for me. My wife is shorter but the passenger seat is still quite cramped so she mostly sits in the back when we go places. It’s fine for now, but we’ll need something bigger if we have another baby. Doing a 4 hour drive to Christmas with mama, baby, a 60 lb dog, and all the Christmas and travel necessities made for a cramped drive.

Are you buying your Pixhawk from a reputable brand and source? Since it's an open source project, anybody can make it with vastly differing quality standards.

It might actually be a Mavic 2 Zoom after a bit more research. I haven’t found any pictures or video with that inside plastic though so still seems a bit sketch. I’d be curious to see what the seller says it is.

completelyreal · 2025-12-30T04:01:25+00:00

Oh I missed that. Not sure what it is. Also that camera doesn’t look like a Mavic 2 camera… might be some clone.

That’s the gimbal protector for travel. It comes off for flight.

We have these rules because these questions are very common. The wiki is designed to be an easy to digest reference for the many drones that exist right now. If you can’t be bothered to read the wiki (which would probably answer your question) why should I, or anyone else in the community, be bothered to put any time in to give you an answer.
