@mayintoronto@beige.party @sundogplanets@mastodon.social @brunogirin@mastodon.me.uk I asked something similar a while back. As a tenured professor she's already paid, but I'm not sure that precludes palm-greasage for interviews!

@Extelec@mstdn.social @dtl@8bitorbust.info @a2es@mstdn.social I'm not sure it would need much in the way of setup either. Just cut the mounting bracket so it's not at 90°, put the VRX roughly where the current head is (horizontally) and have the whole thing set up at about 1° above horizontal on some sort of lazy Susan setup that could be clamped to stop it moving in the wind.

@davidnjoku@mastodon.world I was a few months old for the World Cup win. Still hoping to celebrate one before I'm back wearing a nappy 😁

But that's a kind of nostalgia now, I live in France and have a different, less parochial, perspective. So I guess I don't celebrate the good things really*

  • Supporting Tranmere Rovers may also have something to do with this.

@davidnjoku@mastodon.world Slight tangent, but I'm native British and don't feel the need to apologise for Amritsar. We're still ruled by an aristocracy going back to the Norman conquest. These people own 3-4 times more land than the rest of us combined and treated the poor as a template for how they would treat empire (IMO). I have absolutely nothing in common with these people.

Replying to @VickForcella@mastodon.derg.nz
@VickForcella@mastodon.derg.nz Normally you'd either have a TT setup with a local earth or TN where the grounding is done by the grid. We have TT and connect the neutral directly to earth, and it's fine for the Zoë. Normally, at least for older models, the main issue for single phase charging is Zoës insist on at least 10A. But apparently all electric cars get the hump if they don't detect a proper earth. It seems weird that you don't have one.

THAT’S WHY THEY ARE DESTROYING THE BOOKS. but let me go one step further… 🧵

@dtl@8bitorbust.info @Extelec@mstdn.social @a2es@mstdn.social But, given these receivers have a gain that's more in the horizontal than vertical plane, if I'm using one of those oblong dishes with a longer vertical diameter, would i be better off putting my dual receivers at 90° to take better advantage of that? Of would I get more benefit from the wider beam availability in flight? #sorryForVagueOffTheCuffQuestions

@dtl@8bitorbust.info @Extelec@mstdn.social @a2es@mstdn.social Cool, that means I can use the stuff I've already got as I'd have a ~6.2cm spread. Perfect.

@Extelec@mstdn.social @dtl@8bitorbust.info @a2es@mstdn.social If I'm using the two piece video receiver horizontally, do I really want the focal point to be lazer focused bang in the middle of them? I guess given the beam width id apparently about 4° this would mean it's less of an issue or does it just mean smaller dishes have less gain (so larger beam width) but a given source could still be between my two receivers? Would I be better off getting a single receiver with somewhat lower gain at the focal point (to scoop up everything from the dish)?

@Extelec@mstdn.social @dtl@8bitorbust.info @a2es@mstdn.social the VRX uses an omnidirectional 3dBi "donut" antenna. It's far easier moving the dish to pick up the signal on a waypoint planned flight than something high gain on the wing (if I understood you correctly).

@dtl@8bitorbust.info @Extelec@mstdn.social @a2es@mstdn.social I'm thinking of trying a 0.8m dish for my 5.8GHz long range drone VRX connected to a 2.5W VTX... The 15dBi specialist stuff is crazy expensive and this expedient solution appears to be far better.
