not a fair test with uniden being block by dash, try mounting to windshield for test
@robbiestewart198417 сағат бұрын
Proud owner of a ICOM 2730A i have put the main unit under my front seat and remote head affixed into an $9 mobile phone holster using velcro strips and stuck onto dashboard using holster suction cup and the lead between main unit/remote head stuck down using gorilla tape I've got antenna on drivers side of the bonnet even on low power it can hit local repeater clearly, there is a work around in terms of hooking up power leads to battery I rigged up 2 extension power leads and connected them using crimp pieces then fed thinner wires through fire wall using a piece of stainless steel wire before crimping terminal connectors up and connecting it up to the battery

Only issue to address is cover the burner with a ziplock! Water intrusion in the lower tubing can cause particles of food, rust or fat to enter the burner gas ports. Thus causing blockage or corrosion in the gas plentium. AND if water is forced in, and you are in freeze zones and just let it air dry only, water pooled in lower burner head can crack the gas line. Always fire er up!! Great video!!

@michael2one10 күн бұрын
great video. It doesn't make sense that he was targeting you when your detector came on becasue you were already so close and had slowed down. So he must have been aiming at the person behind you and it triggered your detector. I guess there is a small chance that a pure LIDAR detector could give your some headsup if highway patrol targeted a car ahead of you.
@Sky15 күн бұрын
Your right, I think he was targeting the Orange Challenger who was to the left of me. My 3 ALP Front Heads cover a wide area pretty sure it shields the cars next to me as well

@@Sky1 "A burnout (also known as a peel out, power brake, or brakestand) is the practice of keeping a vehicle stationary and spinning its wheels, the resultant friction causing the tires to heat up and smoke." -Wikipedia. I don't care what you call it, but he didn't do a burnout. Just lost traction while accelerating

If you are use more batteries in a device, they will not discharge in the same way, depending on the resistance of the battery, the capacitance, and type of connection (serial or parallel). Then it should be preferable to discharge all the batteries before a new charge, otherwise you will face battery memory effect, that should not permit you to USA all the power of the batteries.
@Sky126 күн бұрын
Each battery has a seperate chamnel, some can be charging while others are discharging. Each runs its own cycle

Nice job! I just picked up a partially built Tribander that came with only a plain aluminum case, so now I am looking for inspiration for the paint scheme. Of course I have the same problem with the decals only being black, so my front panel won’t be able to be too dark; I will probably have to go with white. Is that red glossy?

Actually, it's TopRace not Top Flight. Probably going to use this method next time I have to put an antenna up after spending an afternoon in the hot sun Sunday with a slingshot. I have a similar unit in my cart at Amazon right now. I too chose one with velcro strap to make it more universal than those available for a specific model of drone. Good video and good idea with the reel, I've used that method with slingshot before.
