Great work on the tilt Cam, 33:26 showing some serious bend when raising them. May I suggest reinforcing the top bar so wind doesnt decide to give you a bad day. in the winter...
It’s actually pretty rigid and if we had serious winds I wouldn’t have it up. I just watched it back and I think it’s because of the delay with the middle (new) linear actuator, I’ll have to have a look at it but I think that’s why it’s bending. Thanks for pointing it out to me 👍🏼
Great video cam, fair play what an array! I would say the middle is slower because it probably carries more weight than the others. as it's carrying the front of the back panel too.
Maybe I didn't catch it from the video, but starting from a bigger angle would help the motors work less and do more work. At least that's what I would aim for.
The ever optimist Cam 😂😂 Now that you have been for an outing (or two), do those loose cables in the roof flap about as you drive or are they pretty steady? Asking for a friend 😇
Vans looking SO good in the green 👌🏻
Thanks, so happy I went with the raptor paint. 👍🏼
Great video again Cam 👍 and what a set up 👌 well done 👏
Thanks Graham, couldn’t be happier with it 😁
If you have solar it makes sense to maximise its efficiency and tilting makes a big difference. Good job.
Thanks, it’s amazing how much better they perform 👍🏼
Freaking awesome, chuffed for you 😊
Thanks, it was a fun project 👍🏼
@livinginkevlar are you any further with the Thermal electrikery thingy? 😊

Thanks mate, you still tempted to do the same? Hmmm you might be on to something, I’ll investigate 👍🏼
@@livinginkevlar Hmm, think I'm going to try some kind of quick release way...

That’s what I did in the end, just forgot to add the feet. 👍🏼

Haha that’s me! Cables have been fine , I still need to tidy them up but no problems at all mate. 👍🏼
hi we spoke at at elan oaks look better see it in the flesh nice one fella cheers Rob
Thanks Rob, lovely to meet you. Hope you’re still enjoying your travels around Wales 👍🏼
hi great way to maximise the power you get in, do you have a link to the actuators and remote you used?
I’ve just added the eBay links for actuators and controller I used. Follow me on Instagram and let me know how you get on, always happy to help 👍🏼
