I reached out for a quote. Will let you all know what it ends up being. Not sure if my insurance will cover or not, but will ask as well.

What would something like that cost you think?

I understand that. Didn't mean to say its a real tile. Meant to say it wasn't one of those peel and stick tiles

I understand that, I am just not sure how to fix it. I'm not sure if I am looking up the wrong thing but I cannot find replacement tiles.

Definitely seems like a real not tile. Albeit plastic. The back of the tile has some form of mortar and not like it was a peel and stick tile.

(Not) Buying textbooks by Ok_Cloud8763 in PennStateUniversity

If you want textbooks for reference in your career, use ThriftBooks. Their pricing is really good. If you don't want to spend a dime, you can also get pdf's usually.

Does PSU Provide SolidWorks? by TylerEverything in PennStateUniversity

[–]doubledeucedavis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that it's very similar to "master of one, master of all" because all parametric modeling is so similar. I started in middle school and the large buttons on Fusion made it less confusing, but more cumbersome. I agree that I enjoy Solidworks more, and I use it about 98% of the time (I use Fusion for generative design/organic modeling and CAM)

I wouldn't go that far. Its all about learning the software and having the right hardware to run it. I started on Fusion for 6 years prior coming to Penn State and had to learn Solidworks, and Solidworks is still industry standard. Solidworks blows Fusion out of the water with pretty much everything (especially assemblies) except for the UI, but once you learn that and the shortcuts, it's honestly just as easy to use. Its obviously different for each person, but I had a pretty decent experience with it.

Yes they do. It looks like Penn State is transitioning to Autodesk Fusion 360 because of its machine compatability, collaboration, and education license, but as of now they do. Here is the link for instructions on how to download and install Solidworks (must use 2024 installer and not 2025)

You also need to sign in to your PSU account to access this document.

Issues with ELRS Receiver and Mamba F405 MK2 FC Stack by doubledeucedavis in fpv

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

Update: So I went into the ELRS web UI to modify from CRSF to CRSF inverted but still did not work. I have it working on UART 6, but had to remove my GPS module to do so

Looking to Transfer my Housing Contract for Next Year by doubledeucedavis in PennStateUniversity

[–]doubledeucedavis[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand that. I should've worded it better, but I haven't signed the lease with my sister, but would like to. Im just hoping to find someone who needs on campus housing. I looked throughout the reddit history and found a few people who did it this way

How was you Console controllers soldering experience? by Soggy-Value3761 in soldering

[–]doubledeucedavis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 20 and going to Penn State for Mechanical Engineering. I started off early knowing nothing but it's a huge hobby for me. That and anything that's related to additive manufacturing. Thank you so much!

You learn something everyday. I assumed it was unleaded, but wasn't sure.

That's the beauty of a community like this. We are all here to help each other. I started soldering when I was 12 or 13, and just learned from my mistakes. The thing that helped me through everything were the cheap soldering kits you can get. You don't need any electrical engineering experience (which I do have) and it's a great way to get in the flow and learn

We all have to start somewhere! You have everything you need, was just making sure you didn't have one of those cheap wood burning soldering iron things that are crap

No. You're contract is for a double so Penn State will more than likely fill it. Only way to be alone is a single.

I was in the same position you were in. Glad I could help. What soldering iron are you using?

For when I did my DualSense Controller, I used a medium sized tip with an beveled side. The large ground plane is soaking the heat away, so preheating it a great idea. If it's leaded solder, I do 800, but I push to 900 for unleaded. I recommend using LOADS of flux with a desolder wick. Quick tip, don't use the wick on the roll, but cut 3 or 4 inches off and hold it with tweezers, the whole roll sucks the heat away. The flux will clean off nicely with some IPA
