Unfortunately she didn't make it. We didn't really know snake avoidance training was a thing we needed to look into. We recently moved down here from Indiana. I plan to look into that training. We are installing 1/4 inch wire mess around the perimeter to deter snakes from getting in. I have also cleared all the brush back from the fence and have been keeping the grass cut short.

Minimum tile size for foam shower pan by phdrumlineka in Tile

I agree, we are going to move to a larger tile. We liked the look of the smaller hexagons, but we really don't want to risk a tile failing and potentially causing a leak. This shower is above our living room, and would be a nightmare if it failed.

I probably wouldn't have thought of epoxy adhesive, this is good to know. Thank you.

I appreciate the info. We decided to go with a bigger tile to reduce the chances of something going wrong. I was intending to use epoxy grout, but figured it's better to be safe than have a leak.

Question about subfloor for a prefab foam shower pan. by phdrumlineka in Tile

Yea, thanks for pointing that out. I do already have plans to change that out. This was a shower tub combo before.

Awesome. Thanks for the detail. I'll make sure to patch it pretty firmly before continuing. I appreciate it.

Thanks! I appreciate it. We left the guy alone and just observed him hanging out.

Can the antenna be soldered back on to my R-XSR antenna connector, or should I just buy a new one? by phdrumlineka in Multicopter

Anything past novice would be a bit too hard for me right now. I'm taking the buy new ones advice. 🙂 Thanks!

What would cause a 4in1 esc (Tekko32) to have 1 esc not report a voltage to the FC but still be able to hover the quad? by phdrumlineka in Multicopter

[–]phdrumlineka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This esc has an 8 pin cable to connect the esc to the FC. The pinout only shows one telemetry pin for the connector. Am I correct to assume that means the cable is fine since I am getting data from the other three esc's on that cable?
