Fair enough ! I thought maybe you found it easier to detect inconsistency in road surface under red light or something... Definitely a different look. I hope people see you at distance out of bedroom windows and assume it's aliens Edited November 20, 2023 by Cerbera 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope people see you at distance out of bedroom windows and assume it's aliens What's funny is that the blackout riding creates pretty much the exact opposite effect (aside from likely appearing to be a streaking but loud shadow even from up-close), and makes it way harder to track road-surface conditions - as one would likely expect! Fyi - riding with the Bridge is just as challenging (and fun!) as one might think: - Almost zero depth perception - Separate image in R and L eyes, with one being a few microseconds delayed from the other (with practice and correct equip. adjustment, the brain will still superimpose/merge the two images with the ability to make either one temporarily dominant, at-will). - One eye isn't seeing anything created by or related to visible wavelengths (true lwir), so certain features are more pronounced, but others are obscured -hence me wiping out in soft mud that, from it's thermal signature and contrast with the surrounding surface, looked more firm than it was... - The other eye still needs "some" ambient light to see - though way less than the naked eye (unfilmed wphos), so how much there is determines how well that eye can see after intensification. (what's the point of passive IR if you have to go shining a big-ass IR spotlight around ) Super fun, though!

(what's the point of passive IR if you have to go shining a big-ass IR spotlight around ) Super fun, though! Good stuff! It is interesting how well one does integrate the visual input from the naked eye w/ that using PVS-14. I have a handheld FLIR that would be interesting to play with EXCEPT I am not about to risk either it or NODs with my beginner's skill on the EUC! I have been somewhat out of that ''arena" for awhile, and thus far have managed to stay FAR AWAY from a certain Night Vision Company & their Black Friday sales for a couple of years! it is fun stuff to play with, and absolutely necessary for ... OTHER uses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Reitz Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Teddy's paw is sore from the 12 miles on paivement yesterday. So poking around in the garage instead. So I added stiffness and lift to the rear mounts and adjusted the front. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Elliott Reitz Posted November 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2023 Well my strap-metal brackets were kinda flimsey and rather than making them better I just cut the OEM brackets in the front and used the ones on the back with longer bolts for the skate-wheels. Loki really begged me to take him for this ride tonight. I really didn't feel like it and kept it short (only 2 miles tonight). Still, glad I did and nice to see my dogs so happy. The 12 mile ride last week that made Teddy's pad raw seems not to bother him already (dogs heal amazingly fast). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elliott Reitz Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Pretty sure I got dumped off by a pedal dip and only then did it dig out the sod. This is a V1 S20 with S22 Pro motor, rollers, controller, plus my mods. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyberwolf Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) Since the last few videos I shared were somewhat dark (lol!), figured I'd share something pretty much the exact opposite! This was a super fun ride, and random comments heard throughout were awesome! Edited November 29, 2023 by Cyberwolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varamontelo Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 (edited) When the wheel is near the trees, the suspensions are in action, and the pressure is important.

varamontelo Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Hi, the tyre pressure on root tree, i think is different in the moment on the stairs. Is it the same day ? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varamontelo Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Nice video EMA, friend group on all roads, city, woods, sun, thanks. A dog looks at the machines (funny), only one wheel and humans with colored helmets, they don't walk on their feet but they can run faster than i,that's the new world. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
