If this plane balances with it and no extra weight, as yours did, its a sure thing ill go with it. Ive pretty much settled on that glider drive 960 setup above. Yea, ok, that sounds like a good way to go about it. I'm sure it'll fly just fine with whatever motor you decide to use.ĭoes the glider balance on the spar now? If so, how much weight is in the nose? If not, how much weight do you need to add, and what is the total to make it balance as a pure glider (no motor)? How does that compare to the weight of the motors you are considering? There may already be lead in the nose of that OLY that you aren't aware of. LOL- I think we may all be over-thinking this a bit. It follows, I think, that if that is the case, the only extra weight I added was the lipo under the wing, which isn't much. The fact that my OLY balanced perfectly with the motor I chose serendipitously tells me that it must approximate the weight you would have added to the pure glider. If I recall correctly, the OLY needed quite a bit of weight in the nose to balance it as a pure glider. Bit heavier than i hoped, but its a proven setup (by 2400RDR) at least. The glider drive 960 comes in at 309 W on 3s (see pic below). While that might have been a bit under powered it shouldn't need more than 300W should it? My first thought, before i had bought the plane was that something like a higher kv 480 on 2s would be sufficient. Use the prop turning over very slowly to achieve air brake. My wings were prone to flutter at full power.Įasy conversion and fabulous flyer. The Oly II does not need 500 watts to climb on. Nose mounted motor was brushed with planetary gear box, until I discovered brushless. As you found, then I could run my choice of battery without balance issues. I chopped the nose off, fixed a 1/4 plywood firewall and put the battery under the wing. ![]() It worked, but I was not happy with the changed in handling caused by higher center of gravity. I was un sure of the e power at first, so I added a power pod above the wing. So- you may find the weight of such a setup beneficial. Since the battery sits exactly over the CG in the under wing compartment, the outcome is that I can use any weight battery without affecting CG, and minor adjustments to CG can be made merely by moving the battery fore or aft. The completely accidental beauty of my setup is that the weight of the motor and other stuff in the front compartment made the OLY balance perfectly on the CG with no added weight anywhere, and without a battery. Depending on the conditions, I may do as many as four or five climbs to 500' during a single flight, and after doing that come home with the battery at about storage voltage (~3.8v per cell) ![]() I never weighed it, nor have I worried too much about the motor run time because I don't do competition. That power train is actually far bigger (in terms of weight and power) than i was anticipating. ![]() What was your auw? Also how much motor time do you get with that setup? Great, thanks for the link, its a awesome build that. Just for interest sake, any idea what it is? (there's a pic of it below) Then also, on a side note the plane cam with this circuit board device strapped to the tail, the seller didn't really know what it was but suggested its a component of some kind of old style stabilization system. For a bird this size whats a good auw weight to aim for (including of course a power train)? If it is an Olympic ii the wing area is listed as 59.9 dm sq. I need some idea of how much power to aim for? The weight as is (no electronics and only servos in the spoilers) is1073g (or 2,37lbs), which does seem a bit heavy already, i am maybe wrong. Now, the thing is: I want to mount a motor and folding prop up front. The fuselage has some issues at the tail and needs some recovering. The wing, apart from being 1 piece, doesn't need much work to it. 2.55m wingspan (and as an inconvenient 1 piece). I believe its an Olympic ii (correct me if i'm wrong). I snapped up this old glider for a really good price.

![]() It will be interesting to see in future how these flags evolve further and whether we will get one flag which is acceptable to all the butches out there.Īlso, learn in detail about the Straight Ally Flag which is much debated one within and outside the LGBTQ+ community. However, going by the number of times the page of the Blue-Purple variant of the Butch Flag was viewed on this website, it seems that more users were interested in this variant than the Orange variant.Īs on 17th June, 2023, the Blue-Purple variant had 17.7K views, whereas the Orange variant had 3.5K views. The butch lesbian positivity flag has seven even horizontal stripes composed of the following colors: dark red-orange, mid-red-orange, light red-orange, cream, light yellow-orange, mid-yellow-orange and dark yellow-orange with a hint of brown. Interestingly, the Orange variant of the flag also exists on DeviantArt. The fact that it reappeared on DeviantArt shows that the community was indeed interested in the flag. The deactivation of the user account on Tumblr that created the Blue-Purple flag has made things a little difficult to assess. Therefore, there is no clear indication as to the variant preferred by the butch community. Thirty volunteers hand-dyed and stitched the first two pride flags for the parade. ![]() The members of the community have been using both variants of the Butch Flag and it is difficult to tell which one is more popular.īoth blue-purple and orange variants of the butch flag are available for purchase on some online stores. Which Flag is more representative of the Butch Lesbian community?īoth flags have originated from Tumblr which has a strong butch community presence. ![]() The top of a jar was focused on with the lights source in the background at a good distance away. In the examples below, a heart was used to create beautiful heart shaped bokeh in the background. Find and play with different sources of lighting and have fun with it! You can also create multiple lens covers with different shapes. Once you have your shape cut out and the paper securely attached to the end of your lens, you are ready to start experimenting! You may have to use a higher ISO because you are allowing very little light in your lens. You can trace shapes or draw them free-hand, whichever is easy for you. Try to avoid any raggedy edges because they will show in your bokeh. The more defined the shape is, the better results you will get. You can use scissors or a craft knife to cut out stars, hearts, circles, etc. Cut out a shape about a ½ to ¾ inches in size in the centre of the circle. Just make sure it covers all of the glass part of the lens so that no extra light can get in. ![]() You can either use tape or a large rubber band. Make sure you leave enough to fold over the edges and secure. Cut out a circle big enough to cover the front of the lens entirely. It just requires getting a little creative and crafty! All you have to do is take a blank piece of black paper and create a “lens cover”. But there is a fun and easy way to play with different shapes and effects with your camera. Some give off circular shapes, some give off more of an octagon shape, depending on the shape of the blades in the lens. For these images, the lighting coming through the tree leaves was used as the source of bokeh.Īs I mentioned earlier, different lenses give different bokeh shapes. The goal is to keep the bokeh light source blurred. Get as close to your subject as you can to have them and whatever else you want to be sharp in focus. When going for bokeh, I check out my surroundings and place my subjects a good distance from the light source.Īs you can see in these images, this lens gives a natural circular shaped bokeh effect. When I shoot my own images, I always try to shoot at 2.8 to get my background as blurry as possible. The images below were shot with a 70-200mm 2.8 lens. ![]() Look for things to include in your background such as trees with speckles of light coming through, street lights, car lights, lights from buildings, etc. You want your subject to be sharp and in focus and the background with the lights you are incorporating to be blurry and out of focus. The key is to shoot with a wide aperture. You can really take advantage of getting beautiful natural bokeh when shooting outdoors. ![]() This is the trickiest part of putting it back on. Step 7: Clip the buckles on the back of the frame Start at the top, and then use that leverage to pull it over the frame at the bottom. Go ahead and wash it on the gentle cycle, pretreating if you need to, and then air dry your cover. Sadly, this isn't as instantaneous as my imaginary washing machine in the demonstration video. We still need to wash this cover and put it back on. ![]() Ta-da! You've successfully removed the ingenuity bouncer cover! Step 5: Wash the removed ingenuity bouncer cover Once you've gotten the bottom portion off the frame, you can lift the entire cover off from the top. Plus, I feel like you have more leverage pulling the bottom of the fabric. There's a lot more plastic to overcome at the top portion where the music box rests so starting there would be difficult if not impossible. Step 4: Remove the fabric cover from the frameįor this step I exclusively remove the fabric starting at the bottom. Buckles, clips, whatever you want to call them. There are two prongs shown below, and you need to hold them both open while lifting the music box out of the frame. Step 2: Take the ingenuity bouncer's music box off You'll want to pull it up vertically from the notch. ![]() If yours is a little more challenging, there is a notch on each of the two connections where the toy bar attaches to the frame. I may have instinctively used the toy bar as a handle, and *spoiler alert*, it isn't made for that. And if you're more of a video person, there's even a demonstration video at the bottom, so feel free to scroll right to that.įor me, this is barely even a step, because mine pops off really easily. I'll show you how to remove the cover from your ingenuity bouncer, as well as how to put it back on. I don't want that for you, which is why I wrote this how-to, and even recorded a video because sometimes it's just easier to understand things that way.

I may be an engineer, but in the throws of sleep deprivation with a little one, it took me, well, longer than I care to admit to figure out how to remove the cover from this ingenuity bouncer. When I got mine, I didn't have an instruction manual. Maybe it was in storage between kids and your first baby hated it so you never had to bother with washing it before. Or maybe you got yours used (like I did) and want to wash it before you put your baby in it for the first time. Do you have an Ingenuity SmartBounce Automatic Bouncer? If so, and you're here reading this, the time has probably come for you to take the cover off and wash it.īlow out? Spit up?

That makes it easy to work out how long a conversion will take - and which model/speed to use given that many of us have limited time to work on these things.Topaz Video AI is now available as a plug-in for Adobe After Effects & Adobe Premiere Pro. The real life slomo speed range on my system ranges from 13.4 original frames a second on 4x Apollo (and about the same on all Apollo speeds) to 40 original fps on 2x Chronos fast. So based on that, at 576p, Chronos fast is now about 2 to 3 times faster than Apollo at 2x slomo, is about the same at 4x slomo, and is around half as fast at 8x slomo. Yes there is a small speed increase on my system, again about 5%, but what really matters I think is the fps comparison based on the original video frame numbers (assuming that the same fps rate will be maintained after processing). On slomo, I feel that the benchmark numbers are unhelpful, and for some may be misleading. With them, there is a small 5% improvement, enough to take me up over the 100 fps mark at 2x upscale - handy! On my 3060 ti system I see about 50% speed improvement in Artemis High at 1080p, though I am mainly interested in upscaling and sometimes slowing down older videos sometimes as low as 288p.

Within 24 hours, there is a clear difference in color between carrots that have been peeled versus scraped.ĭuring scraping, these bits of carrot peel remain behind on the peeling machine's carborundum rollers or discs. So, there is little to no oxidation of the carotenoids, and the color is preserved. The underlying cells remain intact, and oxygen cannot reach them. Knives are used to slice through the cell walls, leaving an open structure with no left-over, damaged cell walls. There is a way to prevent this - peeling. Microscopic view, left: scraped right: peeled The remnants of the cell walls turn white, and the carrots are no longer their distinctive bright orange. Oxygen and light then reach the carotenoids, and oxidation occurs, leading to color loss. ![]() Scraping damages the carrot's cell structure the cell walls are torn apart, as it were, and stick to the carrot's exterior. People mistakenly think the product is moldy. The soft edges smushed and smashed against the bowl sides and didn’t cleanly cut gnocchi dough, while the thin profile of the scraper made it uncomfortable to hold for extended periods.When you scrape (peel abrasively) carrots, their exterior turns white after a while. Cuisipro Flexible Bowl Scraper: This lopsided, heart-shaped silicone bowl scraper had a thin metal interior, but was too flexible and thin.Martha Stewart Collection Bowl Scraper: This small scraper was very stiff and rigid, making it difficult to bend and uncomfortable to use.Fox Run Dough/Bowl Scraper: This was a great scraper for a variety of bowls due to its unique kidney-like shape, but it was too stiff and didn’t flex at all.But it functioned no better than traditional shaped bowl scrapers, and the imprinted numbers and logo on the scraper made it hard to clean. GIR Scraper: This was an oddly shaped bowl scraper, designed to help clean and scrape hard to reach places.The small size and the thin plastic material did make it slightly less comfortable to use over a long period, keeping it from being one of our favorites. Matfer Bourgeat Nylon Dough Scraper: This was an excellent, albeit smaller and thinner bowl scraper, that had a nice mix of stiffness and flexibility.It also stained the worst when used to push pumpkin puree through a fine-mesh sieve. Messermeister Silicone Bowl Scraper: The asymmetrical D-shaped of this scraper made it versatile for a wide range of bowl shapes, but the edges of the scraper were a little soft, making it more difficult to use when cutting gnocchi.Ateco Scraper: Though very reasonably priced, this bowl scraper was not very flexible, making it hard to scrape down the sides of some bowls.JB Prince Bowl Scraper: This worked well-we just wish it was larger.After each test, we cleaned every scraper by hand. Usability and Cleanup Tests: Throughout testing, we evaluated how easy the scrapers were to hold onto and use.After rolling out the dough, we also used the bowl scrapers to slice and pick up the delicate dough, moving the gnocchi to a pot of boiling water. Gnocchi Test: We made batches of potato gnocchi to see how well the bowl scrapers cut and folded in the flour to the riced potatoes.Pumpkin Puree Test: We used the bowl scrapers to push 1-cup of pumpkin puree through a fine mesh sieve, to see how easy it was to use the scraper and if the pumpkin puree stained the scraper. ![]() We then cleaned each bowl scraper by hand to see how easy it was to get sticky dough off of the tool.
