  1. HiFi gurus - can you get a lead to connect an iphone to some older style HiFi Mini System speakers?  The ones that have two leads each (red/black) that then insert into the back of the mini system via those little spring loaded clamp thingies?  So four cables from speakers not the more modern type of one per speaker - RCA?

      So the speakers are fine, but the reciever/amp is playing up?

       

      In which case, you can replace the reciever with something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=bluetooth+amp&ref=nb_sb_noss_1

       

      Then it's just bluetooth into the new device, and that will power the speakers.

      I've started desiging a pivoting body post system so that you can just lift the shell up to swap batteries etc, I'll have to let you know how that goes 👍

      Do you think I could make a power wagon enduro with a trailing arm and IFS?

       

      It's already pretty wide so it would either look epic... or completely ridiculous.

       

      I can find the IFS kit, but I'm a bit unsure on the trailing arm bits. Looks like a 3rd party kit, then you use Yeti arms?

      @Bert_w164I think it's safe to say that Tekno is not copying WLToys.

      Well not right now, but this + the EB chassis will eventually form the MT410 2.0 I would guess.... and I'll bet you follow it if I do a build 😉

      I  love building Tekno kits, so I was in before they even opened it for pre-release... who knows, maybe I will take it to some tracks.

      @Alex97 - Everything underneath it is going to be superb, but yteah... goddamn that thing is ugly. I really don't know why they have the wonky loking front windows and square cab. All they needed to do was add a bit of slope.

  13. Had the AZ jab yesterday. Feel a bit rubbish this morning but very happy to have had it. Actually think the government has done a great job this time.

      Yeah they did bring the military in also... funny how different things are when competence is introduced.

      It's just a shame they had to get this as right as they did due to getting everything else up until the roll out completely and utterly wrong.

  15. anyone know anything about overclocking pcs?

    1. Paul Busby

      Paul Busby

      Yeah if you don't have an Intel K series, you are very limited as to what you can do.

       

      The XMP profiles are there just to make your life easy when getting a stable memory timing configuration, something which traditionally intel have managed well.

       

      The profile with the lower clocks probably has tighter timings, which is why it performs better.

      I'm very rusty on that topic as I got to point in my life when I could just afford the top end stuff anyway, and I needed the stability that comes with not overclocking 😄

       

      Happy to help in anyway I can through my probably hugely outdated brain library.

      You could get an arse load of 3S or 4S batteries with a higher capcity, and it would still be the cheap charge, but as soon as a single one hits that limit you get charged 😞

      Its about the total Wh (Watt Hours). If a SINGLE BATTERY is over 100Wh, then you get stung with special postage costs.

       

      6s = ~22v x 5A = 110WA

       

      If you buy a 4500mAh @ 6s, then I think that works out as 99.9... so you just get away with it.

      Just checked your thread... yeah you're right, this is a replacement for the stock plastic part so that wouldnt work. I can certainly make some nylon inserts for the stock part that will stop it being quite so bouncy.
