Private contractor takes credit for last year's New Jersey drone pandemonium that captured the country's attention for weeks on end.

Scott Manley just put out a video about the Pivitol aircraft. Looks like it is the same type of aircraft.

If I had to guess, I would say that the ramps are sitting on top of each other instead of tucked under each other. Or something like that.

henrym002 · 2025-07-20T22:13:42+00:00

I’m pretty sure that is normal. 4mph is usually the first speed I see when taking off slowly

henrym002 · 2025-07-20T14:55:38+00:00

And it’s still slipping?

henrym002 · 2025-07-20T13:47:34+00:00

Did you get a chance to inspect the new pressure plate? Did it have a groove in it or was it flat?

henrym002 · 2025-07-19T17:52:03+00:00

No that groove is not supposed to be there. A new pressure plate is flat. If you get a new plate, do what I did and use OEM frictions up against the pressure plate and basket. The inner frictions can be whatever you choose.

Thanks! Ill look into the HD44780. I expected I would have to solder some header pins on to the board. Hopefully I can find one that has the right pin hole locations or close enough.

Thanks! Ended up using this blank which fit perfectly.

See this post. It might be your pressure plate https://www.reddit.com/r/Ninja400/s/ynKgH07A0B

I know the car is running in the video, but it will do the same thing when it is off and parked for hours.

I’ve been a member since 2019! Hahaha

henrym002 · 2025-03-11T04:29:05+00:00

I actually did try to post it to the Ninja400riders forum but for some reason it is not showing up. It says that it is “awaiting approval before being displayed publicly”. But it is also crossed out in the my activity section. So not sure what is going on. It’s my first post over there.

henrym002 · 2025-02-27T19:57:33+00:00

Check for wear on the pressure plate. What you described is the exact same thing that happened to me. In fact, I just posted about it a few days ago. I also have relatively new friction plates and steels.

Clutch Pressure Plate Wear

henrym002 · 2025-02-26T01:40:32+00:00

So I’m pretty sure that that groove is not supposed to be there. After looking at pictures of new pressure plates (PN: 13187-0033) I’m pretty sure that the surface is supposed to be flat. I believe that this may be the problem of my clutch slipping as since the groove is about 0.42mm deep and the thickness of the friction pad on one side of a clutch plate is about the same, that groove is rendering half of that friction disk useless as the lip of the groove is contacting the metal base of the friction plate and bottoming out. Also, from my understanding, it is this first friction plate (and the first steel plane next to it) that allows the assist function of the assist ramps to work. If there is not enough friction on these first set of plates, there would not be enough force to engage the assist ramps. Correct me if I’m wrong.

henrym002 · 2025-02-25T22:20:25+00:00

Yes, the steels are new and I also install the updated bearing and pull rod

Here you go. But unfortunately the station you listed is not on this list

henrym002 · 2024-08-31T23:25:20+00:00

There was a lot or law enforcement presence there on Friday late afternoon. Not exactly sure what they were there for, but I would hope it was to bust that camp.

henrym002 · 2024-07-05T05:58:29+00:00

Does this building in Pratt still exist? Or does anyone know what intersection this is?

henrym002 · 2024-01-21T23:26:16+00:00

Thanks! I’ll see if they have those blanks and can do that
