    Help Please- Drone Shopping

    If you find an older Mavic Pro used you can easily "modify" it with some software and go in and edit all you parameters. You can snip the cord to DJI and remove restrictions but still fly safe. Modified Sport mode can hit 42 mph, braking can be faster and climb and decent speeds...

    Inflatable Surfboard

    I just ordered one to try, looks like with the flotation it might be good for kids. If anything the grandkids will like playing on it.

    JetBoatPilot's New Surf Tech, Thrust Vector Wake

    Not if it spans across both nozzles, any straight edge will do.

    Bilge and Pisser fittings

    Hillman is usually carried in large hardware/builders stores, I got mine at the local Ace Hardware and they are in the nut/bolt section. It was in a tray with assoreted oil drain plug gaskets.

    2018 242x overheat alarm

    Mine was cause by an actual overheat alarm as the flush hose was pinched by a bulkhead enough to cut the flow down. The overheat alarm cleared itself but the check engine/see dealer would not clear but getting the boat in the water cured it.

    2018 242x overheat alarm

    Well after setting all winter with the batteries disconnected, turned the battery switches on, turn the key on and the check engine alarm went off. I muted it and test fired the engines before heading to the lake. Once launched, turned the key on and the alarm went off again so I left it going...

    New RV but have engine choices. Opinions?

    You don mention budget but there are some good deals out there on used Senecas, even back to the Topkick chassis Senecas which people love. The only othe style of class c with a diesel is the ones that use a Ford Truck chassis, there are several companies making them now.

    New RV but have engine choices. Opinions?

    One big complaint that I see on the RV forums on the Mecedes based Motorhome is the extremely low Occupant and cargo carrying capacity (OCCC), some models are as low as 1000lbs and this includes people, food, cloths and stuff. The Class A will be better for OCCC but I have driven the Ford F-53...

    oil change every season or when its needed?????

    I change the oil at the end of each season/year on every toy or low use vehicle I own, it’s cheap insurance. The oil from simply sitting in the engine will deplete its additives and eventually turn acidic (not good) Because of the potential for condensation and acid buildup especially in a boat...

    JetBoatPilot's New Surf Tech, Thrust Vector Wake

    Just want to make sure, these will work with my current lateral thrusters on my 2018 242x? So far the tubing video looks good, our first few trips were pretty brutal on the grandkids tubing. With the current sale, money back guarantee and buy back for the thrust vectors I just put on I’m ready...

    This looks pretty effective and it won't rip your pump off

    There are plenty of other threads already on the Wakebooster.....this is not one.
