    Do GA aircraft have this device?

    So do the Mustangs/Camaros from the 2010's. Glass auto-retracts a 1/8" or so when door is opened, goes back up when door is closed. Makes no difference if it's convertible or coupe. Just better fit on the weather seal.

    2 inches bigger and I am having trouble making it fit

    Even so, a mount to the glareshield, or from underneath could be just as effective. It doesn't have to be mounted to the yoke. Being on a ball mount (friction adjusted) allows you to rotate it easily if it's obstructing something temporarily. There's not a ton of space to have it "at 2...

    2 inches bigger and I am having trouble making it fit

    You would think a combination of components for a RAM mount would work. Using a ball mount to allow portrait or landscape orientation.

    On Mobility, or Why We Don't Have Flying Cars Yet

    You had flying DeLoreans in 1985. What are you complaining about?

    N/A HVAC ECM blower motor not working

    I just installed a Goodman unit a month ago (myself, not an HVAC company). There were no internal circuit breakers. There are the typical automotive-style 5A fuse on the circuit boards though. I have a dedicated circuit breaker at the house panel and a fused disconnect on the outside unit. My...

    N/A HVAC ECM blower motor not working

    Certainly a unique way of doing it. I guess if the air handler requires 220V for the heat strips, it makes as much sense as anything. I'd just think that the regular circuit breakers would provide the rated protection and leave it at that, rather than having circuit breakers on your circuit...

    Hug your kids

    My goodness, Ed. I certainly didn't expect to read that after clicking on the thread title. My God grant you peace in time. I'd love to hear more about him if/when you feel up to sharing anything.

    Well, I had to Google bagel history in order to know where they originated from, lol.

    Riding Mowers -Gas/Electric?

    I agree, there's some issues depending on the application. Although, I was mainly talking about compact tractors in my initial response. Most people aren't using a 20HP tractor to cut 30 acres unless they just love doing it slowly, lol. I'd think 30 acres with a rotary cutter is going to need...

    Riding Mowers -Gas/Electric?

    Sorry, didn't realize you were also referring to having an EV mower/tractor, just that you wanted a front-mount deck. I wasn't implying that the whole thing be devoid of all electronics, just that it would probably be best to keep it to a minimum for basic controllers. Tractors are generally...

    Riding Mowers -Gas/Electric?

    You can buy Zero-Turns with front mount decks all day long. Grasshopper is probably one of the most well-known in that space as that has been their design for a long time, and Ferris makes a model or two as well.. Kubota still makes 2 or 3 models, which you see in many golf/park maintenance...

    Riding Mowers -Gas/Electric?

    I don't mean that you're solely limited to frame width, just that the space occupied by the engine in a traditional tractor can be re-designed to maybe put the operator more central and keep the batteries low as opposed to just taking an existing frame and stacking a box of batteries where the...

    Riding Mowers -Gas/Electric?

    Any EV tractor really ought to be designed more like a modern EV skateboard platform of sorts. Still going to need the beefy bottom end but form factor doesn't have to look as much like a current ICE variant because some of those design constraints won't be there. Carrying the weight low is...

    Electric Lawn Tools

    I was only referring to the zero-turn and mowing function. Using weight in a tractor is an entirely different scenario and you're usually okay sacrificing turf damage for stability. Trust me, the weight of even a standard zero turn or garden tractor in a bit of mud or soft grass can have you...

    Electric Lawn Tools

    There are a few out there, but there's just no way it makes any financial sense. Most small acreage owners also generally have a need for a compact tractor of some sort from time to time. Often it's best to have a zero turn for speed/quality of cut, and a small tractor to run the occasional 3pt...
