Para's House. (Goodbye)

[soft pecan]

lol

[gaunt creek]

I was about to say your ideas are very ideological. I'm not sure you understand how hard it is to get the government to sustain such a project and how there may be consequences to airdropping hormones over entire forests

[soft pecan]

we can study it, we can look at previous examples and how well it did

do i win

[ruby ice]

fibre and ethernet?

[gaunt creek]

When you fuck around like that you risk serious damage

[soft pecan]

fiber

[ruby ice]

tell me thats not wifi

[soft pecan]

i think i have 4gig symmetrical available if i wanted

[ruby ice]

wait what country are you in again?

[soft pecan]

the netherlands

[shadow bolt]

I know how hard it would be to make a government to anything, especially yours, and I know there could be adverse consequences, but that's not really my point, my point is that it is feasible

[soft pecan]

it wouldn't be fucking around anymore

[ruby ice]

ok yeah dont you guys have like some of the best speeds in the world

[soft pecan]

as it'd be studied, proven, tested in small batches, proven, green lit

[soft pecan]

yes but where I live(d) it was like a decade behind, always

[gaunt creek]

Deer Don't eat meat, and rabies and birthcontrol are not comparable. Also what solution could you airdrop that specificly targets deer?

[ruby ice]

here in aus we're like bottom 50 in the world or something

speed wise

[soft pecan]

if i were to guess i would say switzerland is at the top

[gaunt creek]

My point is that with the current state of our world is that it is not feasible

[shadow bolt]

Given I've started thinking about it roughly 2h ago and it took years for the swiss to figure it out I'm not claiming to have a perfect solution

But the concept has been done

[ruby ice]

i heard something about japan locking in with the internet speed, like blowing countries out of the water with it

prolly some bs like the other stuff google always tries to tell me

[shadow bolt]

And could be done again

[soft pecan]

the way internet in most countries works is a bit silly

here the government or initiatives or whatever else put down the lines and then ISP's rent that out

[shadow bolt]

Yes that was what the last part of my earlier message to Jason was about

[gaunt creek]

I have the solution that also isnt realistic but viable, Wolves.

[ruby ice]

i think its similar here, except its not the government, its a company that has a monopoly on the majority of the internet infrastructure

its also still majority copper

[soft pecan]

well that'd do it fucking up your speeds wouldn't it

in the US it is literally almost entirely a per-ISP thing, even the connection to your home

and they brand the fucking connections inside of your home

like here's a fucking ad sticker in your house, peel it off if you dare

[shadow bolt]

I mean, both are viable, mine would make for less suffering but more involved, but neither would realistically be adopted by governments given that's not what they care about

[unreal cargo]

Should've just used archinstall

[gaunt creek]

I think birth controlling and giving the deer hormones is not a good idea

[hallow oriole]

I have spatzel coming

I think thats how you spell it

[gaunt creek]

Thus regulation of hunting is best bet

[soft pecan]

close enough

it's one of those side dishes that can be either really good or really bad

[hallow oriole]

Quite frankly on the deer topic i am ok with killing a deer to eat it, assuming in not making it an unnecessarily cruel death. If that makes me evil so be it.

[shadow bolt]

I think it could be a good idea if done correctly, but given we don't really have a lab on hand it's hard to give definite answers but I doubt it would be a definite bad idea

[hallow oriole]

This is supposed to be a really good restaurant

And this is a pretty german area

[gaunt creek]

Oh dear

[soft pecan]

do they have kaiserschmarrn? it's not german but like

[shadow bolt]

I'm gonna kill you and eat you

[tropic wyvern]

Ellooo

[shadow bolt]

Hewo

[tropic wyvern]

What going on in here

[shadow bolt]

Me wanting to go sleep

[soft pecan]

thinking about how we can solve the deer problem in the US

[gaunt creek]

Also @soft pecan hdzero never responded to me

[shadow bolt]

And ethics debates about how to make less deers

[gaunt creek]

No

[tropic wyvern]

What is happening to the deers

[soft pecan]

it is weekend but that is really cringe

[unreal cargo]

That's so hot

[shadow bolt]

:(

[soft pecan]

overpopulation, sickness and hunting

[tropic wyvern]

Damm

[tropic wyvern]

Dang

[ruby ice]

had a whole ass debacle the other day. Internet had been out for a while, we called the isp, they said it was an issue with our premises. Got an electrician out, he said it was an issue with the infrastructure. We go back to the isp, they tell us the same shit again, we tell them weve spent money on an electrician for nothing, and apparently thats basis enough for them to escalate to their manager and run another different test. they decide to send out a guy from that monopoly company and he has to spend 2-3 hours fixing infrastructure issues 500m to a kilometre away. we ended up getting out internet bill for the time we had no internet refunded, and the bill for the electrician credited to our internet bill. fucking hate this countries internet setup

[shadow bolt]

Dw I'll also murder and eat you, I should be able to fit two people in the fridge if I squeeze you two well enough

[hallow oriole]

Oh deer

[soft pecan]

this is like protest worthy

[shadow bolt]

But don't worry it will be quick and painless so I'm still ethically a good boy

[hallow oriole]

You can try but i would probably shoot you first

[gaunt creek]

Again I don't like killing and I hate hate hate guns. But I also think realistic solutions are better than saying there is probably a better option and not doing anything

[tropic wyvern]

How interesting

[shadow bolt]

I'm gonna shoot you before you shoot me

[soft pecan]

the average person having guns is so stupid lol

[hallow oriole]

Uhhh my dad said not here

[tropic wyvern]

(rain Season in Surinam atm)

[gaunt creek]

You have a gun?

[hallow oriole]

Its like a pancake?

[soft pecan]

yeah that's how they try to compare it for english people but i wouldn't say it is personally

[shadow bolt]

I'll borrow a gun

[soft pecan]

it's fluffy and textured like a pancake

[hallow oriole]

Good luck 😚

My dad showed me a picture

It looks good

But not here

[soft pecan]

can we swap places

[shadow bolt]

I'll just have to shoot you in the kneecaps while you are doing something else then stab you to death

[ruby ice]

lowkey we got the worst infrastructure here, our interstate trains are still diesel snail pace things

[tropic wyvern]

Uuhh

[shadow bolt]

Quick, painless, ethical

[hallow oriole]

Well i suppose i wouldn't be alive to argue that so i guess you're right

[soft pecan]

look, you get food delivered for a week and i get rain for a week

this is supposed to be a great deal for you

[tropic wyvern]

[hallow oriole]

God i love pretzels

[tropic wyvern]

It is

[shadow bolt]

(A lack of opposition doesn't make a proposition correct)

[tropic wyvern]

The food here is so nice

[soft pecan]

awesome that they have it somewhere though

[hallow oriole]

Lmao that was kind of my point. I dont necessarily disagree with you, i just dont value animals as high as people. Maybe i should, but I don't. Womp womp. Yummy burger.

[hallow oriole]

Well my dad was just saying it's popular in Germany

He was there a few weeks ago

[soft pecan]

it's an austrian dish

[hallow oriole]

But this German restaurant doesn't have it

[shadow bolt]

I think you forgot a "don't" somewhere, but you have yet to give any logical or biological arguments for this belief besides "because"

[tropic wyvern]

Do they Atleast have apfelstrudel

[hallow oriole]

Fixed lol

Eh maybe i dont have a good one for this

Maybe im just evil

[shadow bolt]

It is indeed hard to find something that isn't there given it's middle school biology

[tropic wyvern]

Do they Atleast have apfelstrudel there?

Drenched in vanilla sauce ofc

[hallow oriole]

An apple strudel?

I dunno

[tropic wyvern]

Yes that

[hallow oriole]

I posted the menu if you scroll up lol

[soft pecan]

what did you end up getting lol

[unreal cargo]

I'm such a deer-pilled popolation-controlcel

[hallow oriole]

I got a burger lol it looked really good. But i have potato pancake and spatzel coming too

[tropic wyvern]

Ion see any desserts

[hallow oriole]

Maybe a separate menu ill let you know

[soft pecan]

no potato salad what the hell

[tropic wyvern]

Yey

[hallow oriole]

Potato salad at least in the us i hate

[tropic wyvern]

I had apfelstrudel when i saw on a trip to Austria and it was swimming in vanilla sauce

[unreal cargo]

Hunters pay to do population control. How TF are we gonna fund deer birth control?

[soft pecan]

you are like

an hour late

[hallow oriole]

I mean thats not a terrible point either

[soft pecan]

it was a point already made

like an hour ago

[hallow oriole]

Just fucking raise my taxes to save deer tho right? What do i care

Lol

[soft pecan]

well it's not funding the EPA or NOAA

but triple the ICE budget we shall

[hallow oriole]

How does the epa get funded

[soft pecan]

money

[hallow oriole]

Im sure i pay them somehow

When i was little my grandpa was always ranting about them lmfao

[tropic wyvern]

Fuck no images

[soft pecan]

https://apnews.com/article/epa-zeldin-trump-reorganization-science-research-acf0ad3a649f940e138b2a917169405f

that url looks really gross

[hallow oriole]

The epa is really gross

You know why American trucks got so big?

The epa

[soft pecan]

lobbying

[ruby ice]

"trump reorganization science research"

[hallow oriole]

They fucked up the incentives for manufacturers. They decided that the gas milage requirements were based on a vehicles top down shadow so@soft pecan companies just made them bigger

Weird ass place to put the ping

Not intentional lol

[soft pecan]

just do the thing we did here

step 1. rebuild after the war

step 2. rebuild after we realize american car infrastructure sucks and is killing people

[hallow oriole]

In single vehicle collisions a heavy truck is safer to be in

But uh

Obviously there are other downsides for any other collision

[soft pecan]

if no one got a truck or is in a collision

lol

[gaunt creek]

😔

[hallow oriole]

If two cars of equal weight are in a collision the heavier the better

But

The real problem for pedestrians is the stupid hood height

Im not happy about that

[soft pecan]

the real real problem is the lack of infra

[ruby ice]

i was in a bus one time that got t-boned by an suv doing 50km/h ish. i had my head down, barely noticed it happen. car was a write off, bus needed a slight paint job.

[hallow oriole]

Its even deeper than that because the country is just so spread out, you cant use identical infra to eu because the cities are literally shaped differently i think

[soft pecan]

i mean they were here as well

and there are so many things you can do

but yes it would require a fundamental change in how the US builds and designs roads

[unreal cargo]

Guys, we beat car talk!

[soft pecan]

and it'd need to be approached from a different perspective

[gaunt creek]

This stupid conversation got us ahead of #1020740305697382470

[soft pecan]

while talking about cars

[hallow oriole]

Yep. The heavier the car is the slower it will slow down and the less your body is subjected to acceleration

[gaunt creek]

And now we are car talk

[hallow oriole]

We are car talk

@soft pecan spatzels are yummy

[soft pecan]

silly little egg noodles

[gaunt creek]

@shadow bolt wake up!

[hallow oriole]

And my dad's sauce did have chunks of mushroom

[soft pecan]

noooooo

[hallow oriole]

They have it, im getting it

[hallow oriole]

Yeah lol, do you just not like it or is it like actually considered a worse food

[soft pecan]

I don't like it

for some reason I had never had it with little chunks, drove an hour further and suddenly that was the only option

[hallow oriole]

Interesting

I don't like mushrooms but I also don't really mind them in stuff

Kirby pfp took a break from them too

Its good but my mom got some chocolate cake that was even better

I think we took over #1023969141230665849 too

And we're past 60 pains

Good day today

[tropic wyvern]

Not enough vanilla sauce >:(

[hallow oriole]

lmao

[tropic wyvern]

When i had one in Austria it was like swimming in it lol

[hallow oriole]

thats epic

the chocolate cake had sauce too

i love chocolate

[soft pecan]

i just realized i have only been to two countries in the past few years

that's sad

[tropic wyvern]

Sadge

[soft pecan]

i could literally drive 20 minutes and add one to that list

[tropic wyvern]

Germany? Or what other country

[soft pecan]

germany

[tropic wyvern]

:0

I also live like 30 mins car drive and about 1 hour bike ride and id be in Germany

[soft pecan]

i used to live closer

[tropic wyvern]

Lucky

[soft pecan]

not really

[tropic wyvern]

Oh

Damm

[unreal cargo]

Guess who just bought a new radio!

[soft pecan]

i mean it's 20 minutes to germany...

[tropic wyvern]

Ur Grandma

[soft pecan]

and then 20-30 minutes to a store in germany on top of that

[tropic wyvern]

Oh damm

[unreal cargo]

No, me

[tropic wyvern]

/s.

[unreal cargo]

I bought another DJI FPV Remote Controller 3

[hollow venture]

Y

[unreal cargo]

Because my current one has a broken button

[tropic wyvern]

Im gonna trow rocks at you

[unreal cargo]

Why?

[tropic wyvern]

Dji controllers are sutch a waste of money nlg

[soft pecan]

they're going to buy another one in a few months

[tropic wyvern]

Loo

[unreal cargo]

I use DJI controllers for simulators

[hollow venture]

Why

Don’t you already have an elrs one

[unreal cargo]

Because I want to train in simulators with the same controller I use while flying. My RadioMaster Boxer Crush just collects dust

[hollow venture]

Why don’t you fly with the boxer

[unreal cargo]

Because it doesn't work with the Neo, and it won't work with my 3.5" drone after I take out the ELRS module to get it under 250g

[tropic wyvern]

You can do alot of other thing to it instead of removing elrs....

[unreal cargo]

Yeah, but I don't use it anyway, so why not get rid of it?

[tropic wyvern]

So you prefer an plastic shitbox over a better fpv drone?

[unreal cargo]

Yes

[tropic wyvern]

[hollow venture]

Why don’t you just build a whoop

[unreal cargo]

@tropic wyvern have you ever even used thee DJI radio?

[tropic wyvern]

I refuse to

Also

[hollow venture]

I’m sure they’re very nice but the gimbals are tiny

And they don’t even have a gc

[unreal cargo]

Can't fit an O4 Air Unit Pro on it

[hollow venture]

Tx

[tropic wyvern]

Yeah no shit

[hollow venture]

What do you have against a lite

[tropic wyvern]

The lite is basically a failure kinda

[unreal cargo]

No expandable storage

[hollow venture]

Fair

Checkout flylens 85

Flies better than a Neo

[unreal cargo]

Yeah, but it's also double the price

[hollow venture]

You just spent $150 on a second rc3

[unreal cargo]

This is false. I spent $200

[hollow venture]

And it flies at least 2 times better

WHY??

[unreal cargo]

Because I'm American

[unreal cargo]

Yeah Japan or Korea. I'm American. All DJI stuff gets stuck in customs right now

[hollow venture]

My o4 flew through

Alright

But you get my point

[unreal cargo]

When did you buy it?

[hollow venture]

7/3

[unreal cargo]

Yeah, I see

[hollow venture]

Consider it

[unreal cargo]

I have a friend that I'm trying to get in the hobby and I'm really unsure if he will like drones if the learning curve is too steep. I want a drone that has a horizon mode like the DJI Neo for him to fall back on

[tropic wyvern]

Every quad has horizon mode......

Also it the most useless mode in fpv

[hollow venture]

Get him on the Sim first

Horizon is for passing over when I switch to angle

[tropic wyvern]

Horizon is so useless nlg

[unreal cargo]

I bought him DRL and Uncrashed. I'm just waiting until I get Para's hand me down radio before I give him my old radio to use with the sims

[unreal cargo]

Are you under 18?

[tropic wyvern]

Yes, why

Like no one uses horizon mode lol

[unreal cargo]

Photographers use it all the time, but your such an FPV-pilled dronecel that you can't see why anyone would like it

[hollow venture]

We’re assuming ur talking about fpv

[tropic wyvern]

What do you mean by photographers? And you mean horizon mode as in horizon lock for video with is like not what i want for fpv lol

[unreal cargo]

That's the ultimate goal, but I just want to get him into drones more broadly right now

[gaunt creek]

🫠

What I miss

[unreal cargo]

Welcome home!

[gaunt creek]

Neo is built diff

Not better, just different

I think the best starter drone is this

[soft pecan]

para why is your friend a rage baiter

[split lichen]

I wanna see the description

[split lichen]

Bruh

Woah I’m watching mis information happen

[unreal cargo]

What misinformation?

[unreal cargo]

What rage bait?

[ruby ice]

give me that frame i wanna do a hex build

[tropic wyvern]

Flywoo makes a hexa frame iirc

[ruby ice]

you mean the 4" lr one?

i wouldnt build on that, arms are so thin cause, well, lr

[tropic wyvern]

Dont think so

[ruby ice]

oh yeah they do

[tropic wyvern]

Yes that one

[shadow bolt]

Am awake now

[vague solar]

[gaunt creek]

He genuinely is a rage baiter but also does the things he says

[soft pecan]

yeah it's sad

also isn't it like 5 am

[brave moth]

no its 1234

[gaunt creek]

6 am I got to go to work 😭

[soft pecan]

sobbing

[brave moth]

ha

[gaunt creek]

Feck you bye 😑

Also quick what is the best 75mm hdzero drone

[solemn cairn]

Mobula7 Freestyle HDzero

this one

with the aio 5

not the one with the eco cam and vtx

[soft pecan]

hey look para it's the quad i linked you 3 times

best one is one you build

[shadow bolt]

Best one is fractal75

[soft pecan]

best one is one you build

[solemn cairn]

he even asked me in dms if it was this one

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRJN4BN3?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_mwn_dp_SHT1GTCJ4V4PSPQS67FR&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_mwn_dp_SHT1GTCJ4V4PSPQS67FR&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_mwn_dp_SHT1GTCJ4V4PSPQS67FR&csmig=1

[shadow bolt]

https://store.fractalengineering.net/product/fractal-75-bnf-rle/

Bestest 75mm aio5 quad

[soft pecan]

this is strangely upsetting lol

[gaunt creek]

Maybe I was rage baiting 🥹

[gaunt creek]

Lol I know

[soft pecan]

they better respond today lol

[gaunt creek]

Here's hoping

[unreal cargo]

Just remember, DJI never did this to you

[soft pecan]

i hate you

[gaunt creek]

Lol

[wet fox]

the price on that is criminal

[shadow bolt]

Not really

Iirc it's like parts price + 40€

Which is fair for a one guy shop

[unreal cargo]

Everything is terrible in the USA right now

[shadow bolt]

It's in Taiwan dummy

[unreal cargo]

Yeah, well the price is in U$D

[tropic wyvern]

And does that makes it automatically American?

[unreal cargo]

I'm saying the price for Americans is bad

[wet fox]

it’s $260 for a whoop

the air 75 is like $100

[tropic wyvern]

Its digital

hdzero

[wet fox]

one of the options isn’t

the unify pro

and still 226

[tropic wyvern]

@wet fox

Fractal stuff isn't cheap

[soft pecan]

yes

you're paying US wages

on top of US tariffs

with fancy motors

and US 3d prints

[unreal cargo]

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with Emilia

[soft pecan]

i hate u

[shadow bolt]

They are 10 bucks motors

Not fancy

Well, fancy but not pricy

[shadow bolt]

That one is just silly

Yves is a bit of a goober when it comes to aios

I don't recommend getting his bnf whoops except if they have the aio5 cause otherwise his options are stupid, but the aio5 ones are plenty fair (xbow also is decently priced iirc)

[shadow bolt]

He declares it as 5€ so you won't pay much taxes

[gaunt creek]

Yes but could we use it to airdrop deer hormones?

But like, special hormones that only impact deer and no other mammals, and have no impact on the surrounding flora

[gaunt creek]

I don't condone this fool so whatever punishment he receives don't involve me

[soft pecan]

did u look at the chicken head thing at all

it's actually really cool

[gaunt creek]

It is and I do think it's really cool

I did

[soft pecan]

i love that things like that just work

[gaunt creek]

I aswell love creative solutions such as that one

[shadow bolt]

You could start one or two pills to it yeah

Dropping mechanism might be a tad chonky tho

[gaunt creek]

Perfect

[shadow bolt]

Yeah we'll just need, some 5 millions of them, plenty doable

[gaunt creek]

But what if we just put deer hormones in the water so that we can turn the deer gay? 🦌 🏳️‍🌈

[shadow bolt]

Fuckin beautiful, and we already managed that for the frogs

[gaunt creek]

EXACTLY!

[shadow bolt]

Just make everyone gay and there won't be any problems anymore

Gayness is the solution

[ruby ice]

gonna burn down my house

homemade 4s pack, never build a battery before

[tropic wyvern]

home made bomb

[ruby ice]

~300g of lithium, yummy

[tropic wyvern]

yummers :3

[ruby ice]

plugged it to my charger though and it reads fine, balanced and storage charged it

[tropic wyvern]

why does the xt60 cable look so janky 😭

[ruby ice]

going away for a few days, gonna do some controlled charge cycles using the charger when i get back, make sure it doesnt like go bang when it hits 4 volts

[ruby ice]

uhh electrical tape

[tropic wyvern]

no like only black wire

bardwell~1

[ruby ice]

i just bought the connector at a local place, then did my own wires

[soft pecan]

where get cells

[ruby ice]

2 2s packs from some drones that are somewhere between toy grade and dji grade

[soft pecan]

u worry me sometimes

[ruby ice]

theyre the exact same cells, different sellers but still the same

not gonna be a flight pack, prolly just gonna end up being used for field charging

[soft pecan]

i would try to fly it

that's a horrible idea though

[ruby ice]

i put xt60 on it for a reason, i aint sticking this thing on my 4s 3" lmfao

[soft pecan]

let me try it it'll go greayt

[ruby ice]

i dunno if youd melt the battery, the esc or the lead first honestly

itd probably just end up as an expensive firework

[unreal cargo]

Literally me right now:

[tropic wyvern]

Legal gremlin

really leaning into that children killing aesthetic

lmao and they brought ppl on from L3 Harris (evil defense contractor)

[tropic wyvern]

they making it obviouse now lol

[agile forum]

Oh nice more RR being evil

[unreal cargo]

@agile forum how's your GNU/Linux install going?

[agile forum]

Well
I successfully installed Arch as you know

But I haven't finished the rest bc of a breakdown

[unreal cargo]

I'm sorry to hear that. Good luck with your post install when you get around to it

[unreal cargo]

Making progress

[gaunt creek]

Making regressions...

[wet fox]

just took off on one of my packs and it sagged from 4 to 3.4 on takeoff

rip

Is it a bad idea to kill it by just flying it until my quad falls out of the air?

And after that, maybe just bridging the leads with a 10 mohm resistor overnight

@soft pecan

[soft pecan]

some electronics don't like when you do that

but yes you can

[soft pecan]

this seems dangerous

[wet fox]

what resistance would u use?

like is that not enough??

[soft pecan]

i meant the overnight part

[wet fox]

yea ig

but assuming im monitoring it that should be ok right

[wet fox]

also on my hota t6 for some reason when i press the middle button to bring up the charging menu nothing happens

do u think that's bc the difference between the cells is to big (some are at 3.8 and some are at 4.1)

[wet fox]

u think i should just try to make it 4s or is that a bad idea

[soft pecan]

i mean if you are skilled enough to do so

but remember the hota needs to finish to do accurate readings

[wet fox]

ik it needs to finish but there’s no chance i’m charging this pack

and it literally sagged to 3.8 on takeoff

this seems abt right

[graceful bluff]

I did it. I just ordered my HDZ goggles 2 (!!!!!)

[unreal cargo]

I'm waiting for the HDZERO Goggles V2 to come out so I can start saving for the HDZERO Goggles Integra

From droneshop.nl or somewhere else?

Yep, only retailer in EU

have a horrible gif

[graceful bluff]

You have unlocked a new front digit, now you will have the same front digit until you are an old 29 year old

[solemn cairn]

Ty, i will cherish it

[brave moth]

youre old now start posting facebook minion memes

[hot bear]

With 45 you should be doing this for years already

and the g2 bugs continue

[hot bear]

What the fuck

[solemn cairn]

happens to like 1 in 5 recordings at a random point

other people have this issue too

trying a different sd card to see if it helps

otherwise just wait for a new firmware ig

mob 7 hd is very fun tho

need to swap the frame bc the stock one is super heavy

[gaunt creek]

Tell me what this creature is!

very gay cat

[hot bear]

You've seen it therefore you're gay

Can't undo it now

It's too late, sorry man

[gaunt creek]

Rip

[solemn cairn]

aaaaand the happy model motors slipped a shaft

prolly just goind to try return this and then do a custom build.

that a normal thing for the happymodel rs0802 or am I just super unlucky?

in like 20 batteries with no large crashes

[hallow oriole]

Ive heard it will happen if you twist to remove props

I do it anyway

[solemn cairn]

my air 75 has been through hell and back for 8 months and this thing cant last a day

atleast i have hdzero on my 5" to look forward to

[soft pecan]

i think this is just super unlucky

[solemn cairn]

should i get a replacement or build?

the parts are not in stock rn

so i might have to wait a while

[soft pecan]

i mean other than the motors it's good isn't it

i would ask around a little more

[unreal cargo]

At least there's no hair

[solemn cairn]

@shadow bolt do you know anything about this?

[shadow bolt]

Hewo and you likely just got particularly unlucky, I'm pretty sure the tolerances are similar to the ex0802, and despite over a hundred driveway filled packs they didn't slip on mines, and I very rarely hear people with slipped shafts on those motors either, so most likely you just got very unlucky

[solemn cairn]

ill ask for a replacement then

[unreal cargo]

What are the odds that 2 people I know got extremely unlucky? I'm starting to think HDzero just has garbage quality control

[graceful bluff]

Please dont scare me

[unreal cargo]

**Boo! ** 👻

[graceful bluff]

That hurt

Curious

[soft pecan]

it's bait

[graceful bluff]

Thank you

[soft pecan]

para had probably the first or second manufacturing problem with the new optics they're making that are fully sealed and they're working on giving them a solution

only public case of that

and S is seemingly using that to be a stereotype of "I had an issue and I will never consider touching this brand again"

[graceful bluff]

Hmm ok, I will report back when mine arrive in 4 days

I am calm now

[soft pecan]

there's just a hair in the sealed part of the optics pretty much

they offered para to send replacement optics, just asking on if it can be sent to one of the few repair people hdzero has in the US

which I am sure it can

divimath isn't the massive government backed corporation DJI is

(which they also had trouble with, but apparently that's not as big of a deal which loops back into the "it is bait" thing with how they are talking and have been going about these conversations)

just horrible luck pretty much, now if they don't solve it in a feasible way for para then that is a huge problem

it does really suck to be the one that got stuck with a new problem like this and to have the initial experience ruined, but it isn't backing for any argument right now especially since there really is only one public case that I can find and it is an entire new optics process

[solemn cairn]

its happy model not hdzero

[unreal cargo]

Well that's a horse of a different color

[gaunt creek]

Im not giving up 😎

[soft pecan]

you shall have crisp analog and crisp 720p

as crisp as that gets at least

[gaunt creek]

Experience not ruined delayed

[soft pecan]

that's true

some people reaally value like the unboxing experience and such though

[gaunt creek]

I do but my life has been to stressfull to dwell on that. Can barely exist lately. Always mind on work.

Will be happy when it work

[gaunt creek]

I will admit it was a carrot I was holding out for hard work week but I can always buy more things 🥲

[shadow bolt]

If it can make you feel any better when I got my goggles I managed to be the first to brick them in a way never found before :p

[unreal cargo]

Thanks for the weight loss tips guys. I'm at 248G and I didn't even have to take off the ELRS module

[gaunt creek]

@soft pecan sorry to make you repeat yourself could you walk me through connecting my 3d drone to betaflight wirelessly?

[soft pecan]

through the elrs receiver?

you connect to its wifi, open the betaflight configurator and put tcp://10.0.0.1 or whatever IP it has as port

[agile forum]

Ok hear me out
I am now become arch user
Sound drivers installed

Markiplier my beloved

[gaunt creek]

huh?

[gaunt creek]

connect what to the wifi?

[soft pecan]

if you mean through the elrs receiver

[unreal cargo]

What window manager is that?

[soft pecan]

you connect the computer (a phone is a computer) with betaflight configurator on it to the elrs receivers wifi

[soft pecan]

it says

[agile forum]

Why
Hyprland of course

Fastfetch literally says it

[soft pecan]

i like fish

fish is a nice shell

4.0 is really cool

[agile forum]

I use fish :P

[soft pecan]

i saw!

[agile forum]

With starship

It's really nice

[agile forum]

Oh lol

Arch + Hyprland feels so good compared to windows

[soft pecan]

I'm surprised you went with good old ext4 instead of btrfs

[agile forum]

Ol' reliable

Wasn't going to stray from the docs too much

[agile forum]

It took 17 tries, 25 boots and 48 hours to get arch working

I lost sight of some stuff

BUT I did it

I fulfilled my promise

Successfully install arch

[gaunt creek]

How connect?

[agile forum]

Bluh what

Oh

Configuration

[soft pecan]

i think the password is expresslrs

but make sure that's the receiver you're connecting to

[gaunt creek]

Connected

[soft pecan]

para that's not your receiver

[gaunt creek]

Help me

[soft pecan]

not the boxer, the receiver on the drone

connect to its wifi

[gaunt creek]

How

[soft pecan]

you power it on

and after like 30-60 seconds it makes a wifi network and starts blinking

you can change how long that takes as well

[gaunt creek]

Connects and then instantly disconnect

[soft pecan]

can you show what you're typing in\

[soft pecan]

is it otherwise set up?

[gaunt creek]

i thought so

[hallow oriole]

i also couldnt figure this out when i tried so im interested to see what happens

[soft pecan]

what version of Betaflight is this?

[hallow oriole]

thats the configurator version not the fc firmware version

[soft pecan]

@barren nest Has this been removed/broken/changed in some way? https://github.com/ExpressLRS/ExpressLRS/pull/1274

[gaunt creek]

Idk thanks for trying I'm sorry I'm too tired and give up. Sorry.

[soft pecan]

maybe it needs the newer configurator, i have no idea

[barren nest]

Doesn't work with app.betaflight.com

What Betaflight version are they using? Do they have telemetry enabled in Betaflight?

[soft pecan]

We'll probably find out at a later date™ unless @hallow oriole wants to look on the one that's not working for him

[hallow oriole]

Uhhhh yknow what sure i could go grab a quad

Give me a minute

[hallow oriole]

i just walked 8 flights of stairs because i grabbed my only quad that wont power up off usb

and i have a broken toe

anyways lemme try ths

@barren nest @soft pecan last i tried it with my whoop it didnt work at all. on my 4" just now i got this far but it wouldnt load and then the elrs wifi ap disappeared after a minute or two

elrs 3.5.1

ok then it gave me this when i restarted the quad and got back on the ap

[wet fox]

how do yall like to hold your balance leads while flying

[hot bear]

In reach of the props

[brave moth]

strapped under one of my battery straps

[hallow oriole]

Mine are all super short so no issue but for my friend i had him tuck it under the strap, or even between velcro folds

Some people use a rubber band around the battery

[shadow bolt]

Tucked under the battery strap

Or else I squeeze them in between the battery leads and wrap around one of the wires so it's secured

[hot bear]

I hate it when something is under the straps

If they're too long, I put them between the wires for the xt60, on my speedypizzas they're so short that they don't need that

(I need an extension to charge them tho)

[hallow oriole]

Same, thats why i run two on my 5" when i put the xt60 under one

[hot bear]

I also have 2

I still hate when something is under one

[hallow oriole]

The front one is plenty tight so idrc about the rear

[split lichen]

Hell yeah

[solemn cairn]

make sure to update the firmware as soon as you get them, and dont accidentally flash the g1 firmware lol

[hot bear]

Did the fw fix your dvr problems?

[graceful bluff]

Will do, thanks!

[solemn cairn]

there isnt a fix for that yet

it was some other issues that got fixed

the dvr thing might also be sd card related

i have tried a different one and it hasnt happened yet

it was an inconsistent issue so idk

the red ones look way better than i thought they would irl

still like the white more

i dont think the red true rc stubbies would look good bc the reds wouldn't match

the grey lhcp ones would look good tho

[hot bear]

Damn yeah

Not as bad as they look online

[graceful bluff]

Please tell me its not sparkly like some cars

[soft pecan]

i would love if it was like cars

[hallow oriole]

I cant quite tell tbh. The term is metallic or semi metallic btw iirc

[soft pecan]

america is very weird

how every single car is black or grey or white

it's really strange and sad

[clear jewel]

That’s not true

[graceful bluff]

Yeah, it looks like it, but then I look at the plastic parts and see the same specs

[soft pecan]

you realize that a sentence like that does not LITERALLY mean

every single one

it means the vast majority, and at least in the areas I have been

[hallow oriole]

Im tired of all the near identical white suvs

[soft pecan]

i am tired of suvs

[hallow oriole]

There are suvs like a crv

That is fine

A suburban is different

[soft pecan]

everyone should be driving this instead

[hallow oriole]

If youre not towing or road tripping you dont really need a suburban

[hot bear]

Everyone should own a fiat multipla

[soft pecan]

everyone should own insert practical car that actually fits their use case and doesn't kill toddlers

[hallow oriole]

Im honestly just tired of people thinking size/volume of thing is a status symbol instead of quality. This applies to houses and stuff too.

I dont want an enormous house even if i had the money for it

[soft pecan]

that would suck

[hallow oriole]

But people assume large means nice

Big house = status

Big truck = status

Even tho my Colorado would obliterate it in actually going off road

Towing is the only logical reason for big truck

If you own a boat or rv its fair, otherwise youre stupid

[soft pecan]

even then a lot of people from the US are under the impression that you need massive fucking truck to tow a small boat

[hot bear]

You are a fake American

[soft pecan]

meanwhile a volkswagen golf would do the job

[hot bear]

Every real American knows bigger is better

[hallow oriole]

That is also true. I can tow a small boat no problem

[clear jewel]

I get that you would need a big truck for work if you are towing stuff but most people don’t tow or carry anything

[hallow oriole]

Murica

[hallow oriole]

Exactly

[soft pecan]

this is like the most stereotypical sight on a european highway in the summer

[clear jewel]

The people that have the big truck that don’t use it for work are compensating

[hallow oriole]

My dad said he stuff significantly more aggregious than this in europe tho, stuff thats flat out illegal here because it is dangerous. That car likely does not have a brake controller and is simply unsafe without a really good driver.

[soft pecan]

what

[hallow oriole]

This is likely illegal in the us because it is unsafe

We have gvwr and related laws

[soft pecan]

i don't see why

we have regulations too

[hallow oriole]

These are the legal ratings for my truck

[soft pecan]

i wish i spoke pounds

[hallow oriole]

Going over these puts you at risk of losing traction and just spinning out in the rain, etc

[hot bear]

No u dont

[hallow oriole]

Theres also some complicated physics involved that deal with vehicle dynamics and inherent instability

Maybe Europe has less trailers and better drivers so they have looser standards but the DOT takes this stuff pretty serious here

And American drivers still manage to wreck shit

[soft pecan]

we have SIGNIFICANTLY stricter regulations when it comes to trailers

you need to have a special trailer license and such

like not anyone is just allowed to drive with a trailer

[hallow oriole]

In Germany too? My dad said he saw so many absolutely stupid trailer setups over there when we he went a few weeks ago

Honestly i wish it was like that here with a trailer license

Same for RVs

[soft pecan]

i would assume it is the same in the EU for most places

[hallow oriole]

But yeah gvwrs exist for a reason

I suppose

[soft pecan]

how do i find the gvwr of something

[hallow oriole]

Just google it

[hallow oriole]

Gross vehicle weight ratinf

Hold on cause there's others too

Other rating types

Oh

Gcwr is probably what you want

Thats the whole vehicle and trailer and everything in them

Gross combined weight rating

But

It gets more complicated

[soft pecan]

https://caravantrekker.nl/berekening/berekening?model=9206

this is a very cute site

[hallow oriole]

Your trailer weight limit could be satisfied, but if you have a heavy load in the car you could exceed the gcwr OR gvwr before exceeding the trailer weight limit alone

And ON TOP OF THAT if you load the trailer wrong you can exceed the tounge weight limit on the trailer OR vehicle

AND if you load it EVEN MORE WRONG you can make an unstable trailer that will fishtail on the highway

Which is the reason you should need a license to tow a trailer lol

[soft pecan]

it has a fun calculation tool exactly for what you're describing

[hallow oriole]

I cant read that 😭

Oh thats cool

[soft pecan]

and the takeaway from that is that what is happening in the image is basically entirely fine

[solemn cairn]

hard to tell is if has some metallic flake in it or its just the surface texture

[hallow oriole]

Oh and on top of all of that you can also exceed individual axle ratings if you really load stuff crazy

[hallow oriole]

It is hard to tell. I think its texture.

[hallow oriole]

Does it not violate gcwr?

[soft pecan]

can't load that much into a volkswagen golf

[hallow oriole]

I dunno the weight of the trailer

[hallow oriole]

Yeah that wasn't necessarily for the golf. I kinda figured it might be over gcwr tho

I just know my dad said he saw over gcwr all over the place in Germany but apparently the laws are different so its totally legal there

[soft pecan]

i mean the reality is that if it really was that dangerous or illegal you would figure you'd see them pulled over a lot more and such

[hallow oriole]

Its not illegal cause the laws are different in eu

[soft pecan]

people from germany don't tend to mess around with laws like that in the first place

[hallow oriole]

I suppose the drivers are just better or something so they dont regulate it as much? Im not sure

Oh and apparently in the eu cars dont honk when you lock them

[soft pecan]

yeah no i got a fucking heart attack from my SO's car the first time that happened

[hallow oriole]

Lmfao

[soft pecan]

must be, i feel like casual people towing things is a lot more common here in the first place

[hallow oriole]

I kinda like it but im sure it's because im used to it. Theres really not much reason for it unless i guess you lose your car in a lot

[soft pecan]

never spot a tow hook on a normal car in the US

almost never

[hallow oriole]

Yep

It's awfully rare

[soft pecan]

here it's like the opposite, every other car has a tow hook because why wouldn't it?

[hallow oriole]

I think the only ones i see are aftermarket

Yeah I mean small stuff like dirtbike trailers are east to pull with anything

I guess anyone here with a dirtbike has a truck anyway so they actually take it through mud and rough gravel

[soft pecan]

yeah here dirtbike people it's all vans and trailers

[hallow oriole]

My dad also said pickup trucks were almost non existent there

[soft pecan]

yes it's glorious

[soft pecan]

also handy for bicycles and stuff and moving

[hallow oriole]

Apparently like... Construction contractors and stuff just have their companies drop off their tools and supplies by commercial truck and they dont need personal trucks

[soft pecan]

because yes, people do have to move a fucking washing machine sometimes

[hallow oriole]

Lmao

Do you have uhaul

[soft pecan]

no they do not preemptively need a whole truck for that, they just get a trailer from a friend for a bit

[soft pecan]

no we don't really have one big company doing all of it

just a bunch of smaller companies

[hallow oriole]

Oh well as long as you have something

[soft pecan]

half the construction worker people I've known just have a company van which then has just about all the tools stored in it

[hallow oriole]

Yeah

Damn emilia i just had this toe surgery and i want to work on projects but I'm stuck on the couch

[soft pecan]

you need one of them metal sticks

[hallow oriole]

What

[soft pecan]

i am not englishing

[hallow oriole]

Crutches?

[soft pecan]

yes

[hallow oriole]

I have some lol

But i cant really go upstairs yet

[soft pecan]

stairs must be horrifying

[hallow oriole]

😩

[soft pecan]

bonk your toe into it and you just die

[hallow oriole]

Pretty much

Its like

All wrapped up

But i have projects to do

Wtf

[soft pecan]

your toe is an asshole

so rude

what even happened lol

[hallow oriole]

Thats going in the quotes channel

[soft pecan]

no

[hallow oriole]

I fell off a skateboard

Lol

Then today they put a ligament back and took a piece of bone out

Fuck i shoulda asked for the bone

How cool would that be

[soft pecan]

why don't they offer that kind of thing by default

let people be weird as hell

[hallow oriole]

Idk good question

Lmao

Encase it in resin

Make a paperweight

[soft pecan]

they just steal something you carefully made for like 20 years

while you can't do anything about it

very mean

[hallow oriole]

Exactly

Ive been growing it for 21 years and they stole it

[soft pecan]

and then they spend so much money on it

buy like 4 M1070 instead. be insane.

[gaunt creek]

No your right

[gaunt creek]

I wish we didn't need cars

[soft pecan]

that's another scary thing

seemingly whenever a bicycle plan or pedestrian plan or a public transit plan is introduced

the car is always still the priority, making the other options just shitty no matter what

and then they assume that "just no one wants to use these things ever, waste of muh tax dollar"

they think people want to take away their cars not realizing that if those other options exist the car driving experience also improves

[hallow oriole]

If someone has 90k for a nice truck from the factory eh ok i think its a waste but whatever. Then they spend another 30k to make it look like this

This is so stupid it makes the truck worse at literally everything

AND IM SOMEONE THAT LIKES TRUCKS

[soft pecan]

not like it was ever going to do anything in the first place

[hallow oriole]

At least it could have

Benefit of the doubt goes out the window with a 2ft lift

[soft pecan]

or u buy this for 11.7k

[hallow oriole]

Lmao thats kinda cool

I don't know how I would park that in any parking lot tho

[soft pecan]

that's fine you make the rules

[hallow oriole]

Lmao

Id buy it if i needed to tow something

It looks cooler and is more capable than any of the lifted trucks

I've seen some super cool mobile home type things on slightly smaller versions of those

[wet fox]

i just don’t get why so many people but trucks that don’t need them

[soft pecan]

this

[wet fox]

i mean i don’t really understand that either lol

ig it shows that have a lot of money so they can afford the shit gas mileage lol

[soft pecan]

no it shows they have a truck

that's literally just about as far as that thought process goes

[hallow oriole]

cAuSe iTs cOuNtRy

If you aren't using it for actual truck shit then guess what, its not country and you're not cool

[soft pecan]

side note. don't like being nearly ran over by 3 naked dudes in a clapped out truck going insanely fast on a sand road.

[hallow oriole]

Thats private property activities lol i dont condone that on public roads

[soft pecan]

there's two transmitters in it

and they both can do both 2.4GHz and 915MHz

[gaunt creek]

Yeah just forgot what it was called

One day I'll build a 13" that uses 915MHz

[soft pecan]

it probably looks like a disco ball at night lol

[gaunt creek]

Its so bright lol

[hot bear]

That's the reason for getting that damn radio

(not the only one tho)

[soft pecan]

because you don't want to change the antennas?

you're already ignoring LBT?

[hot bear]

Yeah but why

[delicate wraith]

Maybe he works as a crossing guard in a zoo

[unreal cargo]

I was thinking of joining the Academy of Model Aeronautics. Does anyone know if it is worth it?

[stark flower]

https://tenor.com/view/ah-shit-here-we-go-again-gta-sa-cj-gta-again-gif-20425950

[wet fox]

it’s not

why were you thinking of joining?

[unreal cargo]

They control effectively all the FIRAs in my county and the surrounding ones as well

[unreal cargo]

I just want people to fly with

[soft pecan]

AMA fields in general are not appreciative of quadcopters

you're lucky if there's a field that is okay with expresslrs

so basically... please just check up with where you'd actually fly and how they feel about that

before you do the whole joining thing

[wet fox]

i would just look in local discord servers, drone races, and facebook groups. and ignore all the FRIA stuff, just use common sense and you’ll be fine

[wet fox]

why no elrs? does it not play nice with their ancient control links?

[soft pecan]

superstitions

[wet fox]

https://tenor.com/view/tin-foil-hat-jabrils-foil-hat-put-on-a-hat-wearing-a-hat-gif-18223681

[wet fox]

can i ask where you’re located?

[unreal cargo]

I've been using this website to find AMA sites that are OK with FPV. Sadly I don't see similar ones from other CBOs https://www.modelaircraft.org/club-finder

I would love to fly at an FPV Freedom Coalition FRIA, but the nearest one is over an hour away

I've been thinking about persuading my university to become a FRIA

[wet fox]

do what you want and feel comfortable with but you def will be fine flying outside of FRIAs

as long as you just use common sense and don’t fly in places u shouldn’t

[unreal cargo]

The thing is I live in an urban area, and my municipality and the surrounding ones are not very UAS friendly. I'm looking at FRIAs because drones are banned from all the parks in my area except where otherwise noted, and my yard space is paltry

I don't want to drive 20-30 minutes to the nearest FRIA, but I don't have a lot of options unless I want to drive to a different county

maybe check out schools on weekends that are open to the public

def hard to find places in a very urban area if you don’t have a tinywhoop

[unreal cargo]

I mean I could pull an FPV Vegan and just not give a $#!T about the law, and my life would be so much easier, but I do want to follow all the laws, as BS as they may be

But yeah, I was thinking of going the tinywhoop route

[stark flower]

FpvFC has gotten a few frias thru even on like public business parking lots.
Might sneak one in for you.

LMK how it goes of so and @ me.
I was thinking to apply some as well.

[soft pecan]

so you're also getting a HAM license and always fly with a spotter?

[unreal cargo]

Right now I only fly with Para until I can get the waiver. As for the HAM license I don't know what you are referring to

[soft pecan]

You need a HAM radio license to transmit at the power most people do with your transmitters

and Para (or multiple) always needs line of sight to your drone, otherwise you're breaking the law

[unreal cargo]

We don't do BVLOS

At least not when I'm there

[soft pecan]

wild

[unreal cargo]

I'm boring

I just do my loops, flips, and rolls and that's enough excitement for me

[soft pecan]

so you're not even going to reach for quadmovr or tasmanian devil level

[stark flower]

If @unreal cargo is flying 100% DJI stuff.
Control and FPV link and all.

Then the device itself is FCC approved and there is no HAM need.
But that's only if you are 100% on fcc approved stuff.

[soft pecan]

we know they're not at least when they're with Para

so rip

[unreal cargo]

Para's the lawbreaker. I bet he didn't even report his exploding propellers to the NTSB

[wet fox]

is it for like a moral standpoint or because you're worried about getting in trouble?

[unreal cargo]

Both

[gaunt creek]

Look what I printed

[unreal cargo]

@gaunt creek now print a holder for the Remote ID module for Beedrill so we can be FAA compliant

[gaunt creek]

stl?

[unreal cargo]

Yes

[gaunt creek]

great send it

[soft pecan]

cute

[gaunt creek]

Finally starting to get good enough solder connections

[soft pecan]

those are looking good and strong

[gaunt creek]

Yup yup

[hollow venture]

You could totally fit them in a can

[hollow venture]

Met a mutual mutual today who had the coldest solders ever

Struggled with his spektrum receiver for 10 minutes before the battery lead just fell off the esc

[wet fox]

wait is that top multi material?

and if so, what filament switcher are u using

cool case tho

maybe some foam padding?

[sacred ember]

I typically use my hands for filament switching

works great

[wet fox]

i mean for that sort of design stuff where it's in a single layer

or maybe u can, idk i've never tried doing multiple filament prints lol. my printer struggles enough with single filaments

also unrelated, but i have an RM pocket, do yall think this mod is a bad idea? im really considering it

[hot bear]

Ams

[hot bear]

Yes you can

[hot bear]

I need to become dark green

Can't start threads in diwhy

[hallow oriole]

just ping one of us to add it

[hot bear]

Too much work

I think I should rather become dark green

[wet fox]

thoughts on adding a crash videos channel in this server? Or even just a thread in videos

[hollow venture]

Hello guys

Does anyone know how to work with vtx

[queen monolith]

Yes

I'm sure lots of people do

It'd be odd for people not to, given this is an FPV drone server

[mild delta]
