Re: Whos doing what to what before the next event......
A few minor mods for Weird mAlice, a quad core heatsink and fan onto the wotty box to try to stop the esc overheating and shutting down, and another fan to bolw air across thegas bottle toward the wotty.
And the exhaust valve was broken (literally), I think it was stuck open.

Something I remember my university lecturer saying: Thermo dynamicaly speaking, it's more efficient to exhaust heat from the Heatsink. Just a thought.

Re: Whos doing what to what before the next event......
we were also thinking about blowing the exhaust either across the esc or the fins on the heatsinc

I'm stuck in B&B near Gatwick about to be instructed in the advantages of Ring Circuits and RCBOs
Re: Whos doing what to what before the next event......
craig, electricians earn crap money !
how can you fit in a 3 year course is it 1 day a week ?
Re: Whos doing what to what before the next event......
If the money is so bad why are you driving a better van than me!!!
It is a course to get me the part P and the 17th edition, so I can go on to do the P.V. solar course then I need the MCS certification for the business,
then I have to get used to going on top of the roofs of peoples houses, then I can get some money back.
For what it's worth I don't think I will be an electrician at the end either it is all about bits of paper so you can do these type of jobs.
Today it was testing ring circuits r1, r2, rn.
I hate being away from home for a whole week :uhoh: :uhoh:

Oii Craig, you'd better not be stealing our customers :lol:
(although probably quite difficult considering we're in different countries)
Tiled roofs are a doddle, slate roofs are a bit more tricky but common sense and careful footing help a lot. Just pray you don't have to work with rosemary tiles :uhoh:
