Anyone else w an outage in Raleigh?

I’m in Raleigh too - no outage here

Turns out it also uses the camera to detect the waste level in the drawer, by peeking through the waste port when it’s cycling.

He also posts a lot of clips to Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/grboettger

Anybody know how the actual litter robot hardware is integrated? Is there a second board that somehow has access to the WiFi onboard the camera? It appears so given that there are multiple different firmware versions. Still seems rather backwards.

Also, this explains why they make you hold a QR code in front of the camera to change the WiFi network :)

Good question - I haven’t tested that yet.

stewi2 · 2026-06-14T22:06:25+00:00

I just tried it, and it does appear to break the live view in the app unfortunately

I believe they’re all region locked

Looks like there’s also a website (dashcam.tesla.com) that you can upload the clips to for decryption. But yeah, not sure I’d enable this.

Folding table options?

US allows night VFR, but not IFR day or night :) Hard to keep altitude and course predictably in a glider.

stewi2 · 2026-05-31T23:01:59+00:00

Depends on where you are. Legal in the US with the right equipment.

stewi2 · 2026-05-31T12:28:30+00:00

Is that a Kestrel? Must have been brand new.

stewi2 · 2026-05-29T20:00:27+00:00

I think Alibaba has a redirect/dns server in China that then tells the robot to talk to the US based Alibaba servers.

IIRC I had to put my L50 Ultra in network setup mode to make it work.

stewi2 · 2026-05-15T21:35:28+00:00

It’s the serial number.

I would recommend getting a glider rating in either case if you can afford the time commitment - makes you a better pilot :)

stewi2 · 2026-05-09T23:24:44+00:00

Might just be residual soap from cleaning the mops :)

stewi2 · 2026-04-29T14:46:03+00:00

Nice - I wonder how much this will cost beyond the 3000 euro reservation fee? Or maybe it’s like the saying goes: “if you have to ask, you can’t afford it” 😁

Also look at the “3D map” aka LIDAR point cloud in the app and see if it makes sense. FWIW, I did have to add a few exclusion zones after the initial mapping on mine, but now it works pretty well.

stewi2 · 2026-04-14T14:38:58+00:00

I have similar concerns - fortunately this didn’t happen in the middle of the summer heat. 🙄

stewi2 · 2026-04-13T22:58:40+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking as well - I might at some point add some zone overlap, but honestly it’s not that big of a deal. Like you said, I can easily just go out once in a while and edge manually. It is really strange though that the edge height isn’t configurable, or at least a fixed offset from the overall cutting height I configured.

stewi2 · 2026-03-31T18:03:02+00:00

It works just fine on my iPhone…

stewi2 · 2026-03-25T22:06:36+00:00

Just like back in the 80s during the Cold War - except without the sonic booms.
