    DJI Neo Drone

    Here in the USA, the regulations are different by state and local municipality, but as long as you aren't bothering people, you can fly them almost anywhere, almost. In the area I live, you can't fly them within 5 miles of an an air port(even rinky dink tiny ones) or within 150 ft of historic...

    The Scoville Scale - Hot, Spicy Sauces!

    Have a younger brother who worked at a certain sandwich chain. As a prank his coworkers loaded up a sub with jalapenos. Now at this point in my life I knew, just drink milk, but he didn't. He went straight for the tap and started guzzling before I could figure out what happened. As soon as he...

    The Scoville Scale - Hot, Spicy Sauces!

    That looks so good. I'd rather have what you are having. What my breakfast resembled: Mmmmmmm tofu, he said as sarcastically as possible.

    My life was threatened....

    I have to agree with everyone who said get law enforcement involved. Michigan is also an open carry state and a "shall issue" concealed state. I'm hard boiled, martially trained and despite my disabilities, god help the tough guy or hooligan who lays hands on me, cause I'll make sure those hands...

    The Scoville Scale - Hot, Spicy Sauces!

    History of stomach ulcers here and was raised on non spicy diet. I'm the only one in my family who can handle medium salsa. Here is good light weight story for you. There is a great Detroit style pizza shop in East Town, GR called Quarantinos. I'm a medical vegan and their vegan pizza is the...

    please help remove speed limit on 500 watt vivi bike

    Glad you recovered. I appreciate your feedback. I think it will be more helpful for others, because you and I are already on the same page. Maybe I'm just getting old, but 18 to 20 mph is fast enough for me. I've done gas powered builds in the past and I've rode mopeds and motorcycles since I...

    Putting her to the test

    Well it's tomorrow and despite soreness and stiffness, I'm having one of those 2 or 3 day delays on the pain. No riding today. My quads have put me on notice the pain is in the mail. I forgot to mention what I think is important for anyone looking at this model to know. I live in a very hilly...

    DJI Neo Drone

    Anti drone guy here putting in my two cents. I don't like them because they are dangerous. Even the one you have becomes a projectile, if something goes wrong and it falls from say 50 ft. Youtube has a large supply of videos of people getting hurt, birds of prey being endangered and way bigger...

    Putting her to the test

    Unsalted and shark free. Same place this video was filmed: Not trying to be an ableist, just trying to be able. Nice to see others having fun despite disability.

    Putting her to the test

    Tomorrow I will hurt, but it was worth it. I live 5 miles from the western shore of Michigan /eastern side of Lake Michigan, but it's a 30 mile/48 kilometers round trip from my house. Made it to Silver Lake State Park and Little Sable point and back home again. Another 35 miles on the Vivi c26...

    please help remove speed limit on 500 watt vivi bike

    If there is a way to do it, I'll figure it out just to get rid of the annoying fight in cruise. It's jarring and doesn't feel good at all. Similar to bad abs or traction control on a car when you don't want it. Having said that, I'm so far away from having the technical knowledge to hack the...

    Cursed by the E-bike gods

    To be honest, I bought this ebike simply to get exercise. So, I'm happy with it and probably won't get too crazy with modding. An extra battery to carry along is definitely in my future.

    please help remove speed limit on 500 watt vivi bike

    Ok, got the bike, got her running and you better believe I'm going to figure out how to disable the limiter. It's not a matter of speed. Don't get it twisted, I'm over the moon happy with the bike and going only 22 miles per hour, but in cruise, you can feel the limiter fighting the hub motor at...

    Cursed by the E-bike gods

    Thanks to all who tried to help with the QR, but they did not give me the proper nuts to put it on. Went to bike shop and they fixed me right up. I didn't even want a qr. I am much happier with just a solid axle. Took her out for her maiden voyage. You get what you pay for... The brakes are...

    Oh I was just bemoaning my current situation because I'm rural and broke at the moment. Tis better to have an ebike than not!

    Cursed by the E-bike gods

    Ok guys I'm exhausted. I really appreciate everyone trying to help, but all of those photos were taken with the axle as close to alignment as possible. The forks aren't going to budge and there is no way to make the parts I have work. I did not move it at all when I took these photos. It doesn't...

    Heading off to local bike shop in the morning. Talked to the owner earlier today, he thinks he has the right part.
