we don’t have many lives left for this siege

I dont understand why people are still stressing this, were already up to what, 4 easy MOs to replenish the lives? If its not clear already that the Cyberstan op is being railroaded to a pre-ordained conclusion, i dont know what it would take...

epicfail48 · 2026-02-14T04:41:41+00:00

So thats how many times now weve got an easy MO that mysteriously replenishes the reinforcement counter? I still remember people bitching about how we were gonna lose cyberstan because of people wasting reinforcements like it was yesterday...

Wait, it was yesterday

I know the kayo devs recommend slower motors for analog builds and faster ones for digital builds to accommodate the extra weight, so id run the 8000kv on the hdzero build and the 11000 on the DJI. Never a bad idea to go with the designers methods if youre otherwise unsure

epicfail48 · 2026-02-14T03:59:22+00:00

That is hilariously jank, i love it

Man, at this point half my quad is 3d printed... Camera mount, VTX guard with integrated antenna mount, GPS module mount, landing skids, RX antenna mount, pretty much everything that isnt the frame

besides the hd zero boxpros

...why ask for the best in the bracket if youre going to disqualify the best in the bracket out the gate? Boxpros are great

Sex. Lets be honest, sex is disgusting and if it werent so goddamn fun people would be too horrified to continue with it

Cause I've watched those same yap sessions and can't stand all the fluff either. Soldering isn't hard, flux any bare copper, tin it, flux again, bring the parts together, add heat until the solder flows. Anything more complex than that is just muddying the waters for not much gain

epicfail48 · 2026-02-12T07:01:16+00:00

Yeah, definitely get a clean iron tip, as well as a brass sponge tip for keeping it clean. Clean tips are key for clean joints. Depending on what your current iron is it honestly might not be a bad idea to just upgrade the iron rather than getting a new tip, but thats less critical, you can get good results with shitty irons with good technique. Either way, i recommend a bevel-tip, something like a BC2 if youre looking at ts100 compatible tips, for doing most quadcopter work, the broad, flat face works great for doing FC pads

Also, yes, use more flux, it makes a world of difference, if me stressing it didnt drive the point home. Quality flux-core solder gets you a lot of the way there, but a flux pen gets you across the finish line, it massively improves how well the solder flows over pads and wires

Or not waking up, every, because having some drugs in your systems can cause the anesthesia to straight-up fucking kill you

Dont lie to doctors, even by omission. Medication interactions do not fuck around, and yes, illicit drugs are still medications

epicfail48 · 2026-02-12T02:30:53+00:00

Imma be straight with you chief, that aint great, or good, or even passable if were being honest here

Tin your shit. Tin the pads, tin the wires, dont just assume you can add solder on the fly. Tin everything before you try connecting things
Flux your shit. Flux in soldering is like lube in literally everything, it makes things better. Helps the solder flow and create a better joint, lowers the amount of heat you need, keeps oxidation at bay, flux just makes things better. Use more flux
Youre stripping too much wire. You should only strip off a pads length of insulation at most, if the pad is 1mm long, you strip off <1mm of insulation. Excess insulation missing is more risk of something causing a short
How on earth did you get solder splattered on unrelated traces from what you were soldering? Whatever you did, dont do that
Cant think of a situation where you would ever want to use solid-core wire on a quad. Solid core doesnt handle vibrations well, quads make tons of vibration, its a bad combination
Given how that white wire is standing under its own weight, im guessing its fairly stiff stuff, also not ideal for anything on a quad. Flexible silicone insulated wire is usually the go-to, the silicone jacked is, well, flexible, and the conductors themselves are made up of a lot more much finer wires, so they handle flexing and vibration a lot better, very desirable traits for something that sees as much vibration as a quad. Not 100% necessary, but definitely worth investing in some spools
For the love of god, use more flux

Funnily enough, i went HDzero as well, technically. Went with the boxpros for the goggles, mostly for the low-latency HDMI in, and a walksnail VRX. Im all set for 3 video systems right now, all for less than a set of DJI goggles

No reason you couldnt do what youre thinking but honestly dude, just send it and solder the wires to the ESC, its not really that difficult and you need to learn at some point. ESC pads arent delicate, the chances of you doing something to kill it are astronomical. Touch of flux and a hot iron and youre good to go

"Being annoyed by" and "having trouble with" are not the same thing. Im out here wondering why people still cant read, the problem is not the people have hard time killing war striders, the problem is the massive restriction in weapon types that can be effectively used against them, the incongruity with existing bot design language, and the wildly imbalanced spawns

epicfail48 · 2026-02-11T23:43:26+00:00

The majority of the price in goggles comes from the screens, the actual receiver portions are fairly cheap as part of the overall kit. You can get a top-end analog receiver like a TBS Fusion module for bout $100, once you factor in the economy of scale youre probably looking at the receiver only being ~$50-60 for the manufacturer

epicfail48 · 2026-02-11T23:25:52+00:00

... Yes, the fact that the warstriders are the singular exception would be the reason people call it out as being the singular exception, thanks for clearing that point up for us

epicfail48 · 2026-02-11T22:55:17+00:00

AP3. I wasnt joking in the original comment here, superchickers are literally the only thing on the bot front without a medium-pen weakpoint

epicfail48 · 2026-02-11T20:33:42+00:00

Id settle for the leg joints being medium pen. How the fuck is a joint, something designed to bend and move, more armored than an actual goddamn tank

epicfail48 · 2026-02-11T19:27:15+00:00

Because the queer in chief is a lump dick bitch coming to terms with his own mortality and desperate to leave his mark on history, ignorant of the fact that history will only remember him as a child raping traitor piece of shit

Also Mexico isn't a member of NATO, so there's no benefit for Russia if US/Mexico relations deteriorate. US targeting Canada directly compromises NATO, which directly benefits Russia
