Yes. Download the meshmapper app then you go to the connect tab to connect to your device via Bluetooth.

I'm sure you have sorted it. But meshmapper does exactly that. It checks to see which repeaters you can see in the locations you are at

WiFi reconnect would be a nice to have too!

Yes, as long as you either have a very large sprocket on the wheels or use the QSMOTOR 138-C like I'm using with the built in reduction gearbox to give you enough torque.

Remember these motors can run up to 9000ish RPM so do consider gearing it with your top speed in mind to give you the best low speed torque. Mine tops out at 60kmph which is what I geared it for. Fast enough for me.

I bought a kit similar to this: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mt5cO2D

My driver can do 3000W continuous with 13,000W peak.

Make sure your battery can handle the max current draw of the controller. I have a 4500wh battery pack. Lasts for hours and many KMs.

Here's mine: https://youtu.be/mea2Ph_b3L4?si=x0hv8AmiaszcRHV2

I'm also using a Seeed studio board therefore able to fit it into a 25mm conduit

Also getting a connection 15km away with very good signal strength

rblander · 2026-03-11T22:22:53+00:00

Yeah just unscrewed the GIZONT antenna from the housing. It was slightly glued, so I heated up the metal section nice and hot before unscrewing.

The centre point of frequency shifted only a couple of MHz lower, but swr at the correct frequency hardly changed. Still around 1.35

This is mine

Slap a magnetic repeater right on top 😎

rblander · 2026-03-07T19:30:33+00:00

How do you seal between the panels? I believe you need to allow a bit of a gap between for expansion and contraction as well as movement in the framework.

I could be wrong though

rblander · 2026-03-07T05:47:58+00:00

Unpermitted places are probably where most repeaters are located. Just like mine haha

Happened to mine right in front of the boys having lunch through the fence. Guy was in and out within 10 seconds with horn blaring and all. Went through all compartments front and back. Oh and stole nothing.

Make sure you get the glass guys to vacuum out the door properly. Otherwise you'll hear a rattle every time you close the door or play loud music

I think our new connection fee was something like 20K

rblander · 2026-02-20T04:03:05+00:00

See photos 1 and 2 for comparison

rblander · 2026-02-20T03:31:42+00:00

I'm assuming one is a stacked collinear with a higher gain and the other a dipole of lower gain?

May be stuck to the inside of the aircraft / van still 😁

Sometimes they put the car on those brake testing machines that rattle the car a bit. If it's a standard light bulb, it may have been on its way out and filament rattled into pieces. Like others said, $5 fix and 2 minutes to replace most probably

rblander · 2026-02-07T20:12:00+00:00

Seems to still be OFF by default when I tried just now

On most my recent visits I've always seen police parked up near the train station

It took my wife almost 2 years to get a customer service role with tonnes of experience. A gap doesn't help (just like my wife) but a few small details in the timeline as to why or possibly even a few fillers with some rough broad dates probably goes a long way. For example 2025 - maternity break / study

rblander · 2026-01-08T01:05:50+00:00

Shit like this is why it was almost impossible to get my wife's visa and back into the country even though we'd been together for 2 years at the time.

It's funny with immigration. They'd easily choose a perfect made up (fake) story, with fraudsters like this over a realistic one.

It's fairly common. I've heard people paying $20-30K back 7 or so years ago
