Vintage hang glider for sale12/18/2023 ![]() ![]() George Cayley constructed a slope-launched glider that flew with a pilot in 1853. The wing's simplicity of design and ease of construction, in combination with its slow flight characteristics, did not go unnoticed by hang glider enthusiasts Rogallo's flexible wing airfoil was soon adapted by John Wallace Dickenson in 1963, to the purpose of recreational flight, launching a hang glider renaissance. In 1957 the American space agency NASA began testing various formats of a new wing called the Rogallo wing with the intent of possibly implementing the design as a recovery system for the Gemini space capsules. ![]() Further hang glider research was undertaken during the 1920s in Europe, Australia and the US, where designers tested several wing concepts and the 'pendulum weight-shift control system'. The type of aircraft employed by Lilienthal is now referred to as a hang glider. The first recorded controlled flights were by German engineer Otto Lilienthal, whose research, published in 1889, strongly influenced later designers. The pilot is ensconced in a harness suspended from the airframe, and exercises control by shifting body weight in opposition to a control frame.Įarly hang glider designs did not reliably achieve safe flight, their builders lacking a comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles of flight. ![]() Typically, a modern hang glider is constructed of an aluminium alloy or composite-framed fabric wing.

Do bats hibernate in bat houses12/18/2023 ![]() After the initial inspection, the wildlife technician can provide a bat removal service plan that will be humane and see your home free of bats. Avoid any problem in the home by contacting bat removal experts and having your home assessed. Bats can carry disease including rabies and can be dangerous in certain situations. ![]() If you have seen bats in your home, either flying or in deep sleep, leave the removal process to the experts. By the spring and the arrival of insects to eat, they awake and this is the perfect time to begin bat removal. They drop their body temperature and will slow down their metabolism so they can last throughout the period of slumber. They are in a deep sleep and will survive on very little stored fat. In Ontario, long winters can result in bats hibernating for as long as six months. This is usually a bat that has got lost inside the walls looking for a more comfortable temperature and emerged accidently into the living space as a result. We often get calls from homeowners who have a bat in the living space of their home during winter immediately following a dramatic change in temperature during winter. ![]() An extreme swing in temperature during winter can lead to bats to wake up from hibernation to look for a more comfortable place inside the home. Bats are very sensitive when it comes to temperature. ![]() Big brown bats will wake up every few weeks and fly around the attic or in the walls of your home. When thinking about hibernation, most homeowners think that it involves constant sleep. Bat droppings piled on attic insulation Wakey, Wakey ![]()

Night manta ray12/18/2023 ![]() ![]() As soon as everyone was aboard (they did a roll call to be sure), we headed back to the harbor. When we got back on, the guides had fresh towels and hot chocolates for us. I was pretty cold at this point - my wetsuit is only a 2.5 thickness and too big for me, and we weren’t moving around at all. /rebates/&.com252fAttractionProductReview-g29217-d11764714-NightMantaRayExperience-IslandofHawaiiHawaii. I could have stayed in the water forever, but it was time to get back on the boat. All guests should be able to swim 50 yards without assistance and consider themselves intermediate to advanced snorkelers. Adults and children (ages 5+) are welcome. We were in the water for almost an hour, just watching their acrobatic dance. The Manta Ray Night Snorkel is open to anyone with a spirit of adventure, who can swim, are comfortable in the ocean, and is physically and mentally healthy. Mantas are incredibly smart - they recognize themselves in mirrors, which not even dogs can do! Some have even learned that humans can help them and will go up to diver to get fishing hooks removed. While those oceanic mantas are even bigger than the Hawaiian ones and it was one of the coolest things I have ever done, this snorkel was just as cool. In Indonesia, we saw oceanic mantas while diving. They corkscrew through the water, feeding on the plankton. As soon as we were in the water and situated, the mantas showed up. It’s a lot of just holding on and floating, you only kick when your guide directs you to move somewhere. There is also a ton of cute merchandise and gear and the shop, and if you show up before noon, there's a discount! I had thought that the snorkel was near the downtown of Kailua-Kona, but it was actually a 20 minute boat ride from the marina - and you end up right by the airport.įinally, it was our turn to jump in! How it works is that Big Island Divers have a surfboard with a light on the bottom and a PVC pipe rack around the outside, which the snorkelers held on to. We checked in at the dive shop ahead of the excursion - we were a little confused by this, but you just need to check in ahead of time to get sized for your wetsuit and get directions to the boat. We had brought our own snorkel gear that we used, but the cost of the excursion includes mask, snorkel, and fins and you can rent a wetsuit for $10. They were a reasonable price (only $105), just down the street from our vacation rental, and had great reviews. I did a little research, and I ended up booking the same company, Big Island Divers. We'd planned on doing a night SCUBA dive with mantas, and I stumbled on this post by Simply Taralynn about a night snorkel with manta rays, and I knew that we had to do it. Join us for a memorable and magical moment of a night time with beautiful manta rays gracefully gliding through the water. It’s a lifetime opportunity to see up close giant manta rays feeding and interacting with other ocean creatures under the neon lights. The manta ray snorkel with catamaran transportation is safe, relaxing, and family-friendly.We had hoped to do a SCUBA dive while in Hawaii, but I had a sinus infection that made diving impossible, so I got to work looking for something to do instead. Manta Ray night snorkel is a MUST DO while in Hawaii. and these impressive gentle giants are the second largest species of manta rays. The manta rays that call Hawaii home typically have a wingspan of 12 – 15 ft. The manta ray learning center is located within the Sheraton Kona resorts grounds, which is only about 15 minutes away from the manta village mentioned above. We will be projecting light into the water to attract the manta rays and so you can easily see them as they eat and play in their natural habitat. It’s the location with the highest rate of manta ray sightings on this list, and tourists see an average of four manta rays a night.

Deeper fish finder troubleshooting12/18/2023 ![]() ![]() This may be because the sonar is stationary or moving very slowly, or because the fish are only moving slowly. This return is from a school of bait fish. That’s because a slow moving object will leave a longer mark than a fast moving one, whatever their size. Which one will make the longer fish arch on your screen? The answer is the small one. The big fish swims very quickly through the sonar beam, the small one swims slowly. Now let’s imagine another scenario – again your sonar is stationary, but this time 2 fishes swim through your sonar beam, one big and one small. It means there is a stationary fish under your fish finder, and it might be a very small one. That doesn’t mean there’s a blue whale stranded in the pond you’re fishing. If there is a fish underneath that is also stationary, what will you see on your fish finder display? You will see one continuous line. For example, imagine you keep your fish finder stationary in the water (in other words you are not reeling or trolling it). On your sonar display, you should think of length as representing time. The most common mistake anglers make when reading their fish finder is thinking that a long arch means a big fish. Plus there’s the added bonus or learning and refining a new skill. ![]() It’s time to take the plunge and switch off fish icons – you’ll be rewarded with more accurate readings of where the fish are. So for the best accuracy using your fish finder, you need to learn to interpret the data yourself. What’s more, some underwater objects or vegetation may sometimes give readings similar to that of a fish. This means there is not one uniform reading they always give. Unfortunately, even the most advanced units aren’t 100% accurate in interpreting correctly.įish swim at different speeds, in different directions through the sonar cone your fish finder sends. In the case of Deeper sonars, we use an advanced algorithm in the Fish Deeper App to interpret the data. It does this based on factors like the size of the object and the strength of the sonar return. The screen is constantly scrolling – this doesn’t mean your sonar is moving.įish icons are a useful tool when you are getting started with a sonar device: your fish finder interprets the sonar data it receives and tries to work out if it is a fish or not. Know if you’re scanning with a wide or narrow beam. ![]() So just remember these 3 points when you’re looking at your sonar display: 1. The current scanning data will be on the right – the further left on the screen, the older the data. One other point to remember about how you sonar works is that it is constantly sending and receiving data, which means your display will be continually scrolling. So make sure you’re aware of whether your fish finder is using a wide or narrow cone when you’re looking at the data on your screen.The Deeper PRO+ 2 has a wide, medium and narrow beam scanning (47°, 20°, 7°), the PRO has a wide and narrow beam scanning (55° and 15°), the Deeper START has a medium/wide beam (40°). A narrow cone will scan between 10° - 20°. A wide beam cone scans between 40° - 60°, meaning you’ll be covering a large area. The size of the area you’re scanning will be affected by the angle of the cone. But for now there are a couple of technical points you need to remember. In this blog we’re focusing on the actual images you see on your screen, so we won’t be getting too technical about how sonars work – but our page on how sonars work will tell you all you need to know. ![]()

Team fortress 2 maps12/18/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() Since early 2020, the official Valve servers have seen an influx of bot accounts using cheat software, often inhibiting legitimate gameplay. Though the game has had an unofficial competitive scene since its release, both support for official competitive play through ranked matchmaking and an overhauled casual experience were added in July 2016. A 'drop system' was also added and refined, allowing free-to-play users to periodically receive in-game equipment and items. In June 2011, the game became free-to-play, supported by microtransactions for in-game cosmetics. The game continues to receive official Valve server support as of July 2023, in addition to new content being released on a seasonal basis in the form of submissions made through the Steam Workshop. Team Fortress 2 has received critical acclaim for its art direction, gameplay, humor, and use of character in a wholly multiplayer game, and since its release has been referred to as one of the greatest video games ever created. Leyendecker, Dean Cornwell, and Norman Rockwell, alongside an increased focus on the visual and verbal characterization of its playable classes and what the developers have described as a 1960s spy movie aesthetic. Finally released on the Source game engine in 2007, Team Fortress 2 would preserve much of the core class-based gameplay of its predecessors while featuring an overhauled, cartoon-like visual style influenced by the works of J. After Valve released no information for six years, Team Fortress 2 regularly featured in Wired News ' annual vaporware list among other entries. Initially, the game had more realistic, militaristic visuals and gameplay, but this changed over the protracted nine years of development. ![]() Team Fortress 2 was announced in 1998 under the name Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms. Development was led by John Cook and Robin Walker, the developers of the original Team Fortress mod. Players join one of two teams-RED or BLU-and choose one of nine character classes to play as, with game modes including capture the flag and king of the hill. It is distributed online through Valve's digital retailer Steam, with Electronic Arts managing retail and console editions. It was released as a standalone game for Windows in April 2008, and updated to support Mac OS X in June 2010 and Linux in February 2013. The game was released in October 2007 as part of The Orange Box for Windows and the Xbox 360, and ported to the PlayStation 3 in December 2007. It is the sequel to the 1996 Team Fortress mod for Quake and its 1999 remake, Team Fortress Classic. Our plan is to get more of our TF content source out in the SDK, so look for more maps & model sources in the future.Team Fortress 2 is a 2007 multiplayer first-person shooter game developed and published by Valve Corporation.

For example, you could start by fine-tuning cover in Goldrush, alter the layout of Granary, or tweak the amount of health and ammo in Gravelpit.

Substance alchemist add normal map filter12/18/2023 ![]() ![]() I'm fairly lazy, so I don't change any of the settings on the popup. That program comes with a very basic seamless texture function located under Filters > Map > Tile Seamless. ![]() There are many ways to do that, but I choose to use GIMP. If you're not just using the center of the texture, or working with UV island maps (for character or placeable units), you will probably want a seamless texture. Let's turn the above image into a basic 512x512 texture by clipping out the center portion. For Crumbling Crypt, I'm just doing 512x512 and 512x1024 images. Each side of an image should be one of those numbers, but it does not have to be the same number. Compatible images are power of 2 (as in 2^n) values such as 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, and reasonably up to 4096. Before you do much more, you also want to make sure the image is in the maximum scale you will be using (in your final DDS) and at a size that is fully compatible with NWN. The first thing you want to do is clip out the portion you want. In general, you can start with any day-lit image though. What it can't do is work very well with waxy images, or images with multiple strong light sources. However, ShaderMap can certainly work with shadowed images. If you want to try it out, you can get a copy at Getting startedįor best results, you want to start with a texture without shadowing, but with contours. For the stuff I'm making for the upcoming Crumbling Crypt tileset, I'm using a combination of tools, including ShaderMap4. ![]() |
