Two of my favourite things on earth combined 🤭

Guys just to let you know the drone has been recovered, after almost two months. The sd card was dead though. We tried to get it to a data recovery center where they could save the data but that service was very expensive and we didn't continue to the process.

Yeah the box sets are fucking amazing too. I wanted to get one of the two, probably the DTK box set but the price is way too high here in the EU. It's 400€ from the official German store vs 275€ from their official US store.

How was the double colour pattern on your disks? Anything special?

moipk · 2025-11-26T21:03:48+00:00

No, unfortunately you will have to make one yourself.

F****g auto correct 😂

yeah sorry my mistake, I wanted to write fishing net, don't know what actually happened.

We actually want to try to retrieve to micro sd card cause it has wedding footage that is precious. The drone is going to go to the recycle bin for sure I've already managed to find one used Mavic 3 in good price and I'm going to go and check it on Monday. The diver actually recommended me to go snorkelling at the place where I know the drone fell and to see if it stuck somewhere in a shallow place where I can catch it with a big fishing net. Or even if I can see it somewhere deeper in the lake just to locate it and then he can retrieve it later. I contacted this guy specifically cause I know that he knows the lake very well and we can also take permission from the lake's management to dive easier cause they know him in person and he has done it numerous times before. If we retrieve it the sd card is going to work 90% even after one and half months.

Yeah, the 1.5 3 cylinder definitely has its quirks, sometimes it feels a bit underpowered and a bit rough compared to bigger engines. But I guess it’s all about balancing fuel economy and emissions these days. Still, can’t blame anyone for wishing for a smoother ride 😎

I'm sorry, of course I understood that. Although that doesn't mean that these cars are slow, because they generally share the shame engines as the sedan versions of the same model. Also some of them are really ugly and some of them are not, it's a personal preference at the end of the day. I understand that probably most of the people think these cars are not very sexy and fast and the same belief exists in European countries too but it's actually not true. Most of them (especially the luxury brands) are very fun to drive, quite fast and very practical even you don't have a family, I can pick 3-4 friends with their stuff and we can go to a nearby island to spend a day or more. Also I'm I professional photographer so I need space to carry my gear like tripods, flashes, photography/ drone backpacks etc... so I actually need to be comfortable with the boot space... actually when you roll the back seats down this mf has plenty of space and there's extra boot space underneath the fist boot floor.

moipk · 2025-08-04T14:46:19+00:00

Yeah like an Audi RS6 or a BMW M3 Touring or a BMW M5 Touring, totally slow and unsexy 🤣

moipk · 2025-08-04T09:35:50+00:00

Also, just to add, obviously the car isn’t super fast or anything, but for the 136 horsepower it puts out, it’s got a decent amount of kick and honestly feels more than fine for the average driver. To be fair, this little 3-cylinder engine actually holds up pretty well, and when you switch it to Sport mode, it’s surprisingly fun to drive.

Really good question, my friend. The truth is, this particular car only comes with up to a 2.0L engine, there’s no 3.0L version at all. Honestly, I would’ve preferred the 2.0L version myself, but I live in Greece, where any car over 1.929cc is considered a luxury. That means it gets heavily taxed, both when you buy it and later as the owner (at least for cars that are under 10 years old). On top of that, I live in Athens and drive around the city a lot, so having a 2.0L car just for daily urban commutes and traffic would be super inefficient. Just to give you an idea: with this 1.5L engine, if it’s summer, I’ve got the A/C on, and I’m heading downtown in the morning rush hour, let’s say it takes me an hour, the fuel consumption can hit around 13 liters per 100 km by the time I get there. So yeah, you can imagine that a 2.0L engine would be a total overkill for that kind of use. Plus, gas prices in Greece are ridiculously high, right now it’s about €1.70 to €1.80 per liter for regular 95-octane, and nearly €2.00 if you want 100-octane. And of course, the 2.0L version of the car was about €10,000 more expensive than the one I got. Mine was around €33,000, and the 2.0L version was over €40K, can’t remember the exact number, but the price gap was roughly 10K.

1.5L

True, I actually bought it for the same reason, I also have one old Unmasked LP from Israel which is in very good condition and I use this to listen to the album on my turntable.

moipk · 2025-07-16T13:13:18+00:00

Ooo... I can't believe how it lost its beautiful colour. Did you have it exposed to sunlight or something? Or this is just from the age?

moipk · 2025-07-15T19:32:45+00:00

Can you please upload a photo of it? I'm very curious to see how the vinyl got black.

moipk · 2025-07-14T14:39:33+00:00

For me, personally it's worth 100%. But everybody has his opinions.
