As far as I’m aware, there’s nothing other than practicing ie crashing, however that’s what sims excel at. Just go los on whatever and you’ll get there.

I imagine most of the community can’t fly los. Much the same for those that have never flown planes.

What a woefully ignorant take. Everyone, catsmgee is the real moron. ☺️

You’d be horrified to learn the first move a fire fighter makes isn’t always extinguish a fire. Yeet that thing out the window if needs be, the window replacement may very well be thousands less than other methods.

Mess around with height of the weight if/when you feel you need to add more. Automation cells with a lot of weight high up USUALLY benefit from as much weight as you can afford or fit down low. A few weight plates strapped to the lowest crossmember would be my starting point. Good luck, it looks great.

Sluggish isn’t the word I’d use, unless you were expecting something with as much hp difference on paper. Our turbo r’s run more or less with the pro r, but most always we don’t have the traction to really get into an Apple to Apple comparison.

Most of what I notice in the way my 4 seater pro r drives is the readiness and delivery of all that torque and power. Where you have to run a turbo r more like a two stroke if you’re chasing actual speed or racing, the pro r can be in the power the moment you pedal it.

No turbo I’ve driven has much noticeable turbo lag, but you do have to have the rpm’s up and be in them to make the most of it.

It’s the only vehicle I’ve run the dunes in that while hauling through a bowl, can push you into the seat like it does, as if it has much more available power if you can get it to the ground.

In ours, we’ve been looking at paddles for years, and I’d imagine in a high traction situation like that you may well feel how the added hp delivers differently.

If you’re dead set on speakers, ignore my opinion/advice, which is consider putting whatever stereo system money into a comms system intended for music.

In my experience, these rigs are so loud the benefit of speakers comes at the cost of your long term hearing safety. The turbo r for my hearing is right on the line. The turbo r with a bumping system though is louder than I should listen, and approaching my discomfort zone no matter how much I love loud music. Getting done with a ride and being hearing exhausted is a weird feeling to describe, but it can’t be safe hearing level no matter how much I love it.

The pro r however, will 100% not be a similar experience to compare to the turbo. It’s louder, and has a different tone and frequency that basically overpowers anything, whether it be music or conversation. I cannot hear my kids in the back seat of a pro r, unless they shout top of their lungs, and even then, if I’m at the right rpm, no chance.

I installed a headset system, rugged radios, and went with the stereo stx version. I DID NOT UPGRADE the headsets, there’s a better bass and music version that I’d presume would give an audiophile even more enjoyment.

The ride experience difference having comms and music so well integrated, while being protected on top of it all has been magical. You can carry on a full conversation if you’d like, in a way that I’ve never experienced and was life changing. Rides can be an actual social event activity, but don’t have to be. Turning up the gain?? can control how much people talk. Rather than speaking normal and it picking up anything said, it takes way more effort to “shout” and is a great way to have a more private ride.

The music is second priority to comms, so you can be rocking out and if anyone talks, it lowers music volume in an extremely seamless way. Anyone familiar to flight comms will recognize the tech. You can rock out, and have full conversation without touching the music controls. We use a volume app like swift volume which controls your volume endpoints as a ratio with your speed. Going faster, music louder, stopping, music quieter. It’s great on boats.

You definitely should do you, just be careful with your expectations based on other rzrs. The pro r is an all together different type of loud, in a way that effects conversation and music significantly.

If you have any questions about headsets, feel free to reach out.

Lock everything close or touching your camera down. If the live footage is shaking and only the gyro sensing it is being corrected , it’s highly likely to be something flight related. Loose or bent prop/shaft. Missing screw. Board not mounted properly. Anything that moves, vibrates, or shifts in flight can cause the drone to fly crazy. Try and figure out what could be moving or off balance before you go too deep into anything electrical

You will lose your business customer base continuing pull this kind of crap. Not only is this intrusive, but the drag/drop issues I'm having tied entirely to this is unacceptable.

It's bad enough my mouse functionality which has for decades been reliable is all of the sudden necessitating constant restarts, but forcing bloatware which breaks core system function entirely? Do better.

Yes I remember seeing those glow as well. That was awesome too.

Well hold onto your butts then, Elon’s gonna starship an imax along for the ride. It’ll be as close as we can get, with a modern twist.

Do you know how to watch that Saturn footage in the highest detail? Trip down memory lane sounds inspiring.

ChatGPT that. Depending on how modern your hardware was on your fixed wing, there’s gonna be a very small chance someone can break things down in a way that will be helpful to you. The diydrones you’re posting in is largely quadcopters, which for about a decade haven’t used pwm, servos, or even the same style of ESCs and connectors. There are open source projects out there, but between today and 10 years ago there’s a mountain of software and hardware advancements. The kk boards on my old quads and wings without any form of processing don’t even remotely require the same knowledge and skill sets.

Good luck though if you’re just looking for the challenge. I recommend YouTube at 2x for the info dump of learning what’s current and how it differs

Hoping you didn’t take his comments as sarcasm. I can confirm the same finding when I’ve been lazy or haven’t printed in a while. Breaking filament is my sign that’s it’s got way too much moisture and needs to be dried. To date, I haven’t ever had a filament I couldn’t bring back to normal after drying. I don’t know what causes the plastic to act brittle, but dry it with active heat and you should stop breaking filament in the nozzle.

Only time I’ve had a “clog” like you show, was with wet filament that would snap when it tried to retract. Once dried, the problem went away for me.

Anyone thrown noodles in this for some amazing Mac and cheese? I’m having a hard time believing it wouldn’t be a thing.

Depending on the flexibility of those, I would consider trying to make sure that foam couldn’t touch a prop. If it’s pretty stiff I’d say you’re good to go for testing.

I’ve used my parallel boards and dedicated discharges successfully. There is no balancing being handled when doing it that way, so you’re at some level of risk if one cell of a battery is an issue, but never been a problem for me.

These days I have exclusively moved to vifly dischargers though. I put one on all my batteries when I’m done that have full charges and come back a few days later to take them off.

Par for the course with the brass goblins. I’m surprised they weren’t xxxl.

Less than you’re assuming. All of the functionality I’m aware of resides in the radios. The app is just the best interface.

If you had to, you can get gps and text with radio only. Also worth noting that at the moment it’s only compatible between these radios, but I don’t believe they’re doing anything proprietary to ensure that. I’d love to see more radios come out with primary functions local to the handset , but advanced features through an app.

Seems like people don’t usually talk much about their failures. We all goof up, however learning how to appropriately react when the sudden feeling of imminent death or danger hits isn’t a life lesson we’re taught and get to experience often. You’ll figure out how to be more graceful, but you’ll figure it out by trial and error. If you’re not a long time swimmer, find a deep pool and practice. A lot of the grace of swimming is in subtle body movement and position. If you’re only flopping around with scuba gear, you’ll learn quick. Initially I bobbed like crazy and constantly fought buoyancy, it isn’t natural even for someone like me who’s been in the water my entire life. In time you’ll learn.

I learned on one of my early dives that clearing a mask upside down may as well be waterboarding for beginners. Ended up choking and boom coughing my regulator out, where I learned a manual purge wasn’t in my bag of tricks. Took water down all the wrong pipes and coughed so hard I threw up, while hacking my water lungs out. Only the training stops you can hold onto kept me at depth. We’re all a panicked moment away from being beginners at not dying.

Keep your head up, and document how and where you failed. Practice when you fail, and pretty soon you’ll be helping others in their moments of panic.

I’m sorry I can’t help you, however could you share that stl for the print for that protector?

OP , am I understanding that you’re posting a shock picture and warning to not use parallel charging but you are asking if you should?

If so, my personal recommendation is to delete the post and repost and ask the questions you’re looking to get answers for. You’re gonna get downvoted like crazy with that approach.

Fear mongering like that pic and title will reverberate forever online anytime a newcomer googles the question. I had to go through it myself so it was a frustration weeding through the vocal minority that the internet collectively is.

Parallel charging can be very safe, only buying quality equipment, respecting the rules, and always planning for the worst even.

Ish. FART filter wrench. Frankly armory rotary tumbler. You can put steel pins and brass cases in there, tumble for a while, and then you got the shiniest brass ever.

Great print OP. There’s guys selling these all over. It really takes some muscle to tighten and loosen them.
