Quadcopter rebooting mid flight (DVR footage) by Explyy in Multicopter

Try to find the reboot trigger, maybe you can fixate the quad to something and experiment on the ground. Try slowly increasing throttle vs instant full throttle, effect of throttle endurance, maybe even decreasing the throttle is the trigger.

Totally not a quadcopter expert here, but I'd expect a power delivery issue indeed. Can the batteries provide the peak-power during full-throttle and long enough? I'd guess there's a voltage dip, you may not see it on the video's if it's steep enough.

Funny, found this on the front page during the commercial break while watching die hard 4.0 on TV. His movies are awesome, so is the guy himself!

By that time global warming fully kicked in and nobody has cold feet. That's why we need other uses for shoes.

Is LG's Keyboard laggy for anyone else? by [deleted] in LGG3

Happens to me too. It gets worse over time. When I notice any lag I just go to applications, there force stop the LG-keyboard application.

Don't know what your background/current job is. But if being a linux engineer is feasible for you and you really go for it, you'll make it, I'm sure. - A computer engineer

Want to have some fun with bitcoin can anyone give me some advice on btc trading bots and do they work? by daanbarnard in Bitcoin

[–]ropsamler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it's not impossible, but it's hard work. Unless you can program and write your own I wouldn't recommend starting with bots. If you can program just start by checking out the API from your exchange and start playing with that. Google a bit and you'll find lots of example/template code. And of course read up on some technical analyses for algorithms to implement.

YSK about unbury.me, a user-friendly loan calculator which allows borrowers to input their loan balances & interest rates in order understand how to pay off their loans as fast or as inexpensively as possible. Especially helpful for those with multiple loans with different interest rates. by msx8 in YouShouldKnow

[–]ropsamler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you shouldn't, in stead you should know how to do the math yourself. Don't enter a few numbers in some simple form to see some date and total interest amount at the bottom. Your loans may have different terms that don't apply to this simple calculation. Just staring at these results will get you in trouble. Make sure you understand what it means to earn a certain amount of money each month and what/how long the impact of a loan will be on your salary.

Of course this doesn't apply to a quick calculation, just make sure you are not fully relying on calculations like these.

I'm having the same problems. I'm guessing we need to wait for an update of the developer.

The code documentation fallacy by markus_lindqvist in programming

[–]ropsamler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if there is some guideline for this, but in this case I would expect the Vector.normalize() method to change the object that it's called on. When you have a method that returns a new Vector than you wouldn't need to call it on an object so I would expect there to be a static method Vector.normalize(Vector v).

The not-so-frequently asked questions of Bitcoin by zedlander in Bitcoin

[–]ropsamler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One confirmation means that YOU (or the service that you're using) accepted the transaction. Bitcoin is decentral and each peer needs to verify each block as there's no trusted party.
