The over head and vertical should be close to the same settings. You may need to make a minor adjustment but it should be really close. As for multiple passes depends on your bead size. If you are welding the whole Bracket I think 3/16 bead should be plenty with a 70s series wire.

 

Don't forget to bevel though for more penetration haha

 

I put 2 quick videos together from last weekend. This is shot with my buddy's racing drone. He's gonna start coming to the events with us and shooting footage.

A good friend is into drone racing big time. As an ex racer (dirt bikes) I was always one of those who felt like throat punching people who showed up to see crashes. Too many good riders/drivers get hurt. Then I watched my first drone race! Just money getting torn up then. And you know what you're getting into when you do that.

 

Looks great Mike, looking forward to the finished product installed.

@Robertocritser im beveling today! thanks

 

cool footage, sound like a bunch of RC cars though hahah

 

For a few minutes yesterday, I got to watch an RC boat club racing on a lake I used to fish regularly. I had to leave before I ended up owning one!

 

Off with the old in the new... Or kinda new......


That bitch is a very tight fit. I put the impact to all the bolts real good, so HOPEFULLY it will stay where it's supposed too...
@Skootter14 I couldn't get even a fingers width between the bumper and the tail light. I'll pray I don't have the flexing issue you had with it!


I didn't waste any time getting it dirty. Took my nephew out on the res to check the game cameras.


The Factory bumper weighted in at 35lbs, so with the 80lb difference it only dropped the back 1/16". I think the Sumo springs are doing their job.

 

Looks good brother, chive on!

 

What reverse light is that under the bumper?

 

They're some inexpensive Kawell floods I got off Amazon. They work pretty good, but if I smash 'em on a trail they're only like $35. I am heavily debating whether to buy another set of the 40W Defused pod off the Iggy light group buy. They'd work better, but cost more. The GB closes tomorrow, so I gotta hurry up and make up my mind!

If it aint broke....

 

But, Moar lights yo!

 

Went went to the overland expo in Asheville and walked around all day. Picked up a frig/freezer with wifi control. Who can say ice cream in the Sumer camping trip!

 

Who's got wifi in the woods???

 

whatever you did to touch it up looks great! If you took the impact to it, I see there being far less of a problem. I didnt do it til the very end and once I did, it didn't move. And AOP will have the final say haha

 

Wish we had a racing drone for the AOP track. SLIDEY MUD DRIFT TRUCKS!!!!!

A pressure washer, a wire brush, some sandpaper, a little elbow grease, and some flat black spray paint will do wonders!

It ain't perfect, but from a distance you can't tell. And yeah I think the AOP will be a good test. It will probably leave some new marks, so I better stock up on the spray paint...

 

Super

Dometic is the same company that makes ARBs fridge right? Better investment than a $300 Yeti.
