    DX8 v NX8 ?

    My DX9 (last one with DSM2) faultless. New shinny TX's are not always and improvement as some of my trainees with NX's I struggle to read their screens on bright days. Smaller font and red compared to my larger font LCD. If it isn't broken or more capable then sometimes it is just nice to have a new toy if you want one. πŸ˜‰
  2. That's a really tough roll of the dice but 🀞 for a full and speedy recovery.
  3. His wit and wisdom will be missed - keep your wheels down and shinny side up.
  4. +1 for John Norris, very knowledgeable and helpfull.
  5. Root729 on ebay has been my go to for years - no connection just very satisfied.

    Electric Cars.

    @Paul De Tourtoulon Correction 62miles - from What Car magazine: "Perhaps the most interesting engine option of all, though, is the plug-in hybrid. This combines the 1.5-litre petrol unit with an electric motor for a total output of 201bhp. But, more importantly, its battery is twice the size of its predecessors, so officially allows you to travel up to 62 miles on electric power." It will also accept 50kW charging so 10-80% in 25 mins. No connection with Skoda just looking for an alternative to my superb 😁 Mondeo est.

    Electric Cars.

    Out of curiosity anyone know the percentage of company car driver to private buyers of the 1mil BEV owners? My gut feeling is that the huge tax reduction in BIK played a big part. Lost revenue from BIK, Vat & Fuel duty has to be recouped from somewhere as current levels are not sustainable. Like Martin Dance a PHEV is high on my list, something with a reasonable electric only range - the new Skoda Superb est later this year with a 68 mile range would cover 90% of my local driving.
  8. I found a balance that worked for me. Accepted essential and functional only - rejected others - now video's play, no pop up reminder which just leaves the small blue circle in bottom left which I can live with.
  9. As an alternative to DM Rocket Powder used by Ron to support the servo blocks, you can use ordinary Bicarbonate of Soda (supermarket cooking isle <Β£1) for the same result.
  10. I believe there may be a development regarding this very issue of additional info only available through QR codes in the next months RCM&E. Like Kc a phone is just a phone/text for me so all my forums are PC based and if we are honest the pictures look much better/clearer on a large screen. However I have some sympathy for the mag editor as space must be at a premium so numerous extra pages of build photos is not an option. So yes it would be nice to be able to access those additional plan build photos/info via the PC.
  11. We eventually gave up on ours when a local mower specialist was looking for a gearbox to keep one of the golf clubs machines going. A swop/deal was done for a ride on with just 35 hrs use. What manuals we had are a page or so back but don't know if they contain the information! Good luck 🀞
  12. I have again been told its all working 🀞 So tried it out to watch Ron's videos. Firstly I can now see them againπŸ‘ Reject all - nothing Necessary - nothing Necessary + functional only - plays And obviously post reply now works. Happy bunny πŸ‡πŸ‡πŸ‡
  13. Been told the cookie issue has been sorted - errrm I think not as now: Videos are not displayed now nor is the banner accepting cookies- blank space If you check reject all or necessary/functional still no video appears. Only accept all will the video appear and then play. Then when I came to post a reply I could not until I accepted all - now changed back to necessary/functional 😭 Mods can you please flag it to IT
  14. @Outrunner some whole clips embedded play but those linked to YT still don't for me here in Yorkshire. I think that's why some do and majority don't so still can't watch Ron's FW190 build without accepting all. "True" They obviously know a great deal but certainly not as much as if I didn't try and restrict what I give away so someone else can monetize my data.
