Should have some footage up in the next few weeks of the European trip and some R32 action back home. In the meantime if I haven't whored this enough already, for those that have missed it :P

Spa in Exige -

Silverstone in Caterham -

Now that I see you're back in Oz. Get in touch some time if you need a hand with video editing the HD stuff etc.

lol Roy. I was expecting (or hoping) old mate in the EVO coming out of the pits would have the good sense to stay off the racing line to let people on their flying laps through until he was up to speed... its not like I was the first car to scream past him as he came out, so he shoulda been alerted to the fact that other cars were already on their fliers... I wasn't left with much choice but to take to the dirty side on cold slicks. Wasn't the ideal 1st lap to get back in the groove after not having driven since May! I did knock about 20km/h off as he swung across into the apex, but that was still at 180km/h when I got all loose out in the dirty stuff. I would have loved to have seen his face with me fishtailing past him at those speeds lol

Ok, just downloaded it, will give her a crack! :happy:

It’s pretty good. Just make sure you change the aspect ratio to widescreen in the view section, otherwise you’ll get black bars top and bottom. You can save as HD720 or HD 720P

Ok, I think i have it sorted.... some footage from yesterday, RadCam.

Footage quality looks great, whats your thoughts on Radcam vs POV Ben?

I have a POV 1.5 but was contemplating on a second cam, the video quality from the Radcam no doubt eclipses that of the POV and even the first clip you posted I assume was using the inbuilt mic? (if so the onboard audio seemed to be a bit better than that of the POV) just wondering if there are any issues that you have found with the Radcam that you don't like?

Also I guess it's a bit harder to edit and upload the HD footage than it is with the POV?

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
