The efficiency of ion engines is ridiculous

After reaching earth orbit I only used 12 ion engines to accelerate. Took a while, but now I'm in a sun orbit with 1.6 billion km radius (over 10 astronomical units) and only used about 50t of fuel...

This part of the rocket weighs roughly 800t btw.

Fatshark HD3 or Skyzone 02C?

Hey, I'm just getting into FPV and trying to choose my first pair of goggles. I could get both of those used for under 200€ and from what I've read they are both pretty good.

The HD3 come with an analog diversity reciever model, the 02C can do diversity as well if I remember correctly.

Which one would you recommend?

Edit: Before anyone asks, yes, the Skyzone goggles come with a 2s 18650 battery pack from Fatshark.

We don't want transphobes here, but chasers have to fuck off as well

It's not tolerance if you only accept trans women because you want to fuck them (or vice versa). Also no, femboys are not eggs and implying that is not fun.

Oh also, this post is related to chess because I suggest to add this text to Petrosian bot's comments. Then we can just tell transphobes and chasers to brick their pipi and Petrosian bot will tell them why.

I think I reached maximum speed

So my goal was to get far away from the sun (further than Pluto), then accelerate continuously and fly straight into the sun. But at 119908.7m/s my game freaked out. The rocket disappeared, and when I try to accelerate now the camera shakes but the velocity doesn't change.

Also for some reason I seem to be at -34817km terrain height.

I fucking love breaking games xD

Analog CO3 system and Cobra SD goggles or digital O4 system and N3 goggles?

I'm just getting started with FPV and originally to buy a BetaFPV Meteor75 with a CO3 camera as my first drone. Also a Radiomaster Pocket and for the goggles I decided Skyzone Cobra SD. All of this would be about 450-500€ for me.

But yesterday I found an offer for a slightly used set containing a Radiomaster Pocket, Meteor75 O4 and DJI N3 goggles for 340€. I don't know, should I go for it?

If anyone is interested, I made this by connecting a high power high voltage source (~4000V, 4-8A) to a piece of thin aluminium (?) wire. The plasma only existed for a fraction of a second, then everything was gone.
