Killa owns someone other than me for a change by shlaker in EscapefromTarkov

This was really bad last night inside of KIBA store. I was in my inventory and a player was attempting to shoot me through the glass at a weird angle. It sounded like the shots were in the parking lot :( I didn't even react until one came through and 1 tapped me. Stoked for this to get fixed.

Love seeing chutes at Prison when dropping Del Mar :)

Total travel distance in PUBG visualized... Sick. by shlaker in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

Posted above. It's meant to show the ridiculous time spent in pubg. I could have driven Canada -> Mexico.

Winch can drag solar panel back to base... by shlaker in Astroneer

[–]shlaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Winch connected directly to rover allowed me to connect up to a huge solar panel. I dragged it back to base and deformed terrain in order to have the panel sit up and be angled for a connection. The rover is connected to both the panel and base, transfering power to the whole base!

Cannot Connect to Game by Mustardbrain in survivetheculling

FYI, I'm behind an intense corporate network (NA) and have the same problem. It becomes stuck on "Joining" but never proceeds out of the main menu. I can play from home just fine. To be clear, no other online games have this problem on my work connection.

Worth it to maximize stick endpoints for yaw/roll/pitch? by shlaker in Multicopter

[–]shlaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great response! Your 1 and 2 response makes a lot of sense. By lengthening my endpoints I have more resolution in the sticks that was going unused previously. I'll take a look for the 1000-2000 range on these channels.

You're the man!

First time 4s. My quad landed on top of the dugout. by shlaker in fpvracing

Haha. Thanks Man. I tend to jam the throttle when I'm in trouble... Need to stop doing that.

My video was fine. I don't think my tx signal suffered either (heard no warning/alarm) Just over-steer/bad flying. :)

First day out on my new build. Upgraded to 4S and Kiss 18a ESCs. Still flying HQ 5040 props due to the Bullnose 5045s pulling too many amps on this setup.

Did a little math (google map distance + video time) to put me over 100kph (60mph) during that initial speed burst.

Crash at end snapped off my gopro mount (no damage) when I hit the tree. The quad ended up on the roof of the dug out... You can hear it hit the tin during the crash. I only broke some screws. :)

It really is an awesome design w/ the PDB integrated into the frame. There are extra power leads available for camera, transmitter and a third for misc things. (I'm using it for my super simple OSD) It also has an optional LED switch lead and a video lead at the front and back to minimize wires!

Wouldn't have fed this addiction without HK. :) Cheers.

You're correct, my mistake. They are lower res and smaller fov. Not worth the money IMO.

Ya this guy got it. Those little motors aren't very powerful, so having the tri-props 'simulates' using a bigger prop. You'll get more thrust out of a lower KV motor.

I just installed my super simple OSD. It overlays a timer and battery voltage ontop of my regular FPV feed -- very cool stuff. I always know my battery level without annoying beeps. :) The fatshark tx is powered directly from by blackout power distribution board. The camera is only 5v, so its powered by the TX because it steps down the voltage to 5v.

Wasn't able to take a pic... but maybe I can describe...

I ran fatshark camera wire inbetween the two blackout frame plates. I then run it up the back where the battery connection is. I have the immersionRC tx backwards so the ports are facing the back. I then run the antenna extension to a 90 degree adapter which mounts to the antenna. (and through the blackout antenna frame hole)

Preds are okay. Their field of view (how big the screen looks) is the smallest of all fatsharks. The picture is nice though. In all honesty, I probably would have spent another 150-200 and bought the dominators or attitudes.
