I know this, when I have my youngest daughter seating in the rear portion of the kayak, I feel like the kayak is eager to roll. This could be also to the weight distribution alone. But when she sits up front and I have my seat all the way back, it's very steady. No problems whatsoever. You can safely assume that larger outriggers would help the kayak be even steadier. Or if you have these installed even further apart, but that would make things more cumbersome in narrow places.

@@Andi_Doci Gotcha. Yeah I'm a bigger guy than you, 250, and felt I had a lot of water in the back, scupper holes weren't even draining it, but I had all gear and all in the back, feels like I need to shift some weight forward but others have stated water in the kayak is normal and it won't sink with only 320 lbs at most. First time using this sit on top style vs sit in. Feel way more confident after watching your vids explaining the weight could be close to 700 you feel. Thanks for the great info, I'm in the cap Canaveral area, bought the same model, now looking at good launch spots for calmer waters. Mosquito lagoon looks good 👍

It's been phenomenal. Even when I don't fold it, it's just very convenient. I build a dolly out of available components because beach launching is a little complex, but with that dolly it should be simple. So, stay tuned I should make video soon on the beach. But I would recommend you do the same. Overall, my set up its toon for convenience. Storage, transport, launch, all have to be convenient.

The placement of the outriggers was pretty much because of the ease of installation possible by the pre molded locations available in this kayak at the front. The moldings in the back aren't the same size as the two in the front, they are actually smaller, so the Starport bases do not fit. The design of these outriggers is such that if I wanted to install them in the back, I would need a one-piece pipe to make it possible to install in the back. Doing so it would make it somewhat semi permanents and more difficult for transport. This is because I could not use the Starport bases, unless I installed the bases with the included screws for the outriggers. I just did not want to do that. Regardless, the best location is usually right in the middle. But in that case, you would not be able to paddle. But still the location on this kayak is actually very optimal because it is surprisingly stable considering the size of the outriggers. The location where you place your foot to hop on the kayak is closer with the placement of the outrigger as compared to the placement to the rear. And most of the waves usually hit you from the front, therefore presenting the effect of the outriggers immediately and negating the rolling effect immediately. Obviously, the size of the outriggers matters but as I said they happen to be effective for the size they are. Also, if you look at larger outriggers, they look have similar attachment in terms of size, making it possible to use the same hardware to mount larger outriggers if need be. But to sum up the stability question. Why are performance trikes always designed with two wheels up front? And all trikes that have two wheels in the rear are always utility trikes that carry loads in the rear? Because performance in corners means you need stability up front, and with utility you aren't thinking about performance, but you are placing most carrying capacity right under the load. So, what is more stable than a performance trike? A car! So, placing the outriggers right in the center gives you the same effect as having a wheel in each corner. Mathematically it is equivalent; therefore, it predicts that the performance is the same as having them in each corner. Anyway, I know it's too lengthy of an explanation, but I hope it answers a lot of current and future questions.

​@@Andi_Docithanks for the detailed explanation. Helps alot.

Just as I guessed, but I did verify it by reading a post in the DJI official forum. The stickers are in case there is any play between the DJI quick release and the ACTION 4 camera. Mine is very firm in its connection to the quick release, but I am guessing that the quick release adapters from other DJI models could be older or slightly looser because of age or design and still work. So, many people would still use the older quick releases and therefore they might find these blue stickers useful, the anti-slip pads as they are officially called, to mount the camera firmly in place to the older mounts that they already own.

@@Andi_Doci ahh I see. Thanks so much!

Ooff, you better call in for some warranty or if it is just recently then have them replace it.

All kayaks have that issue. But there are two solutions for you so you can have a "peace of mind". One is to simply foam fill it; the other is to fill it with empty soda bottles that are capped tight. I have mine filled with foam; 2-part flotation foam purchased on amazon. I did this because of the same issue you are having. Now I don't have to worry at all.

Awesome thanks brother

I will make a video soon about a review of my setup. Here is part 1 of the review I made of these, I haven't done part 2 yet. But int he description of the video in the link you can find the store and the brand. Although, if you are heavier, then I suggest you get something more buoyant, meaning outriggers that are larger. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bxYpWwSsLA0.html link is in that video's description.

@@Andi_Doci thank you so much for sharing your review and the tip! I’m new to all of this so I really appreciate it. I will find some more buoyant ones, thank you! I’m excited to see your future videos on the boat, great content!

I got them from another store, I don't know if they sell them at BKC. But if you find my other video where I measure their displacement, I think I have a link to the store I purchased them from. I will make a better review soon and also explain my set up. I will post the link to store I got them from. Link is in the description. For the brand. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bxYpWwSsLA0.html

There is really no source. It is a feature that I have discovered, per say. And because I did not get this info from a source that intended it to work for it this way, I simply played it safe and ran the best possible available solution that I could find at the time. Can it work at lower spec? Well, if you are willing to risk your 200-400$ and see if it is safe, then fine. But I was spreading the message and I wanted to make sure I was as safe to the equipment as possible. So much so that I would not tell someone to do something without I myself doing the same thing and knowing it works. Because you don't have to lose the gear to lose value. I.e. you can also prep yourself for a trip, relying on this info and end up not making the video because in some situation the device is not getting enough power and therefore it can't run at that time. Because modern equipment doesn't always run their full set of features, they do so to save power. But at times they might need to upscale the power required, and you end up not having enough power delivered to it so therefore you end up crashing the device, or furthermore, damaging the device.

To answer the question in simple terms. What you are seeing in this video is not on the books, and therefore not a guide of simply pass-through charging with the battery on. This is specifically intended to when you are not running the battery in the device. If you are going to run the battery in the device, I am sure you would be safe even with less power. Because in that case it would serve as a run time extender. And, when you turn the device off, it would simply continue charging slower.

@@Andi_Doci yes but i am trying to understand why specifically usb 3.2 gen 2. Usb version usually pertains to data transfer speed and not charging speed or delivery. A 60w usb 2.0 vs 60w usb 3.2 gen 2, both will charge at 60w, difference is 2.0 transfers data at 480mbps where 3.2 gen 2 can do 20gbps. I brought up PD because it is related to charging in potentially high speeds and safer with the devices being able to communicate with the charger, and understandably DJI suggests PD. I understand you would want to have a certain amount of power delivered or higher, i just don’t understand why versions pertaining to data transfer speeds matter here.

@@ryan.2327 You have to look at the 5 Volt specification. Then You will realize that. Look, I don't want to go and restudy everything when I made sure this was running well. But PD refers to power deliver meaning power only. No data transfer! So, look into that specification. Otherwise take my recommendation as stated USB 3.2 Gen 2 has the highest power output that can keep the device fed and working well while in power only mode. So, as stated before, what works for me works for you. If you want something else, then do your own due diligence.

It really is worth every penny. And it's good looking kayak.

Yes, I have a video short while doing that. The main purpose of this video was to show that the pass-through works even with battery out. Otherwise, it must work with battery in, that is the whole point of pass-through charging.

I have videos that will show its size, there is one folded in my truck bed. You can look at it to figure out if it will cause problems for you.

@Andi_Doci thank you. Question, how permanent are the rotating hinge pins. You think they would come out pretty easy without damaging plastic? Much easier if I can break down into 2 separate pieces you know.

@@jaymurf8585 I have never tried, but it looks like these are just two aluminum pipes that can be pulled out, and the slot/hole they go into is sealed. So, it doesn't let water in, as far as I know from examining it. But it should be able to separate with very little or no effort at all.

I don't know about your bike and what retailer you got it from, but mine had this charger with it and the transformer. So, in case you have the same charger as I do, or if you find a charger that is much less expensive but same situation, this is a good solution.

I have a video up on the water. The latest two videos.

where can i watch it ??

I am not the tech support for DJI, they should know better, but I can only recommend what I would do. I would not use it in rain without the waterproof lens cover.

Some are in stock, some aren't. But this is the site I got mine from, currently it is not in stock. xprousa.com/collections/motorcycles Mine only has like 650 miles on it, if you are interested, I can sell you mine, I want to upgrade to something larger, offroad. Nothing wrong with it. It's same condition as first day of delivery, probably better because I have made adjustments. I don't need to sell it thought, but I wouldn't mind buying something larger.

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bn1adyH_B5E.html

I will have a few more videos up soon. Hopefully it all goes well. But, as for the kayak, I don't think I would be kayaking if it was for any other model. This is very stable with my heavy build, and it fits well in a mid-size truck.

@@Andi_Doci I've got an Old Town PDL 106 that I love, but it's almost 40lbs heavier and definitely doesn't fit well in my vehicles. I'm looking for a fun travel yak that I'm not worried about popping and this looks like it might be the one. Looking forward to your other videos!

Enough to fill the 128 GB card I got. You could do more with a 256, maybe able to fill that one too. I will see and return later to let you know a more accurate estimate with recording detail.

It is very hard to get moving, but it will. But you can use some light amount of silicon grease so that it is easier to work with once you have it off.

For me it makes no difference at all, I have a phone holder that I can place the power bank in. a.co/d/3fIqrNN

@@Andi_Doci I didn't talk about a smartphone. I also have an action 4 camera as written in the video title. And I answered that.

The Power Bank I use has a specification of 5V @ 3.1 A continuous. But I can't find other specifications. I have encountered that one of the USB ports will go into sleep if I use the Action 4 with it. I guessed that it has a power saving feature, although all specs I can find do not indicate a difference. But, while using the port that works without shutting down, I have recorded a video nonstop. All links are in the description.

It's intended purpose is a very wide range of uses you mean. There are users who never smash anything on this, nor do they put a scratch on it. Then there are users who destroy it in a few weeks.

@@Andi_Doci yeah I agree. But if you are going to use it inside or for vlogging I would imagine there are far better cameras for the job?

@@torariders313 I don't see why not, I mean I don't really see why you would use anything else, the only viable competitors for vlogging and indoor use is really non other than the iPhone. But, again there are trade offs.

Did you read the description? Mine is very sharp in terms of what it is, with or without the mod. So, if you don't have a sharp image from it, I would simply make sure that the actual Lense was not threaded in/out of focus.

⁠Did you check your sharpness & noise reduction settings? I left mine on -2 by mistake once and had very disappointing results. Sorry if you have and I’m out of place suggesting it but it’s just a thought as it happened to me!

It should be in the box, mine was in the box with the rest of it.

Have fun! And make sure you read my description. Also, test your gear before you are ready to take a trip.

The link is in the description.

I have used very little time. But over all it's super convenient how it is. Although I am not a kayak guy. I will try to become one if possible. Otherwise I will just sell it. But for what it is, it is very good.

You're welcome!

It depends on the SD card, let's just say that I have run out of disk space on a 128 GB card while still having hours left on the power bank. So, the size of the power bank could be sufficient for 12 hours of recording, while you need to swap SD cards to keep going. So that has made regret not getting a larger capacity SD Card.

I had zero problems on ruff ocean with it, and I had made no modifications to it. It's a solid kayak and very sturdy. I like it, but unfortunately, I have been too lazy lately.

I made some videos on the water I hope you can see that I am about 230 lbs without gear. no problem at all.

It's actually very good on the water, but I haven't made videos of it. Now it's too cold to do any.

You can look at my Instagram for 3 up on it totaling over 300 LBS. I also made some videos recently, currently I am 230 lbs without the gear and I do just fine no problems at all.

I shot some video with the waterproof lens on. I could not see any improvement underwater. I think the waterproof lens cover is only meant for dry environments when the solar glare could be a problem. I will always use the waterproof cover when shooting underwater, even with a waterproof case.

No! But I think you can get accessories for it. I have seen some aftermarket cases with it, but I haven't checked the official website because I never needed a cold shoe.

Read the Description, I have some links there. But to directly answer your question, No. I purchased one of the low-cost ones from Amazon.

I am 220 lbs and I kind cause a lot of air resistance.

@@Andi_Doci I just realized after looking at the clash for a couple days they're lying. It's basically the same exact thing... (Someone tested it properly with a GPS it might hit 60 if you're lucky but I am light 125 so it probably could) 👍

Not sure. I haven't had one to test, but I can guess that it should because passthrough charging is not new technology and if this one does, it is very possible that the Action 3 has similar functionality.

Action3: use the powerbank without intern Accu!

True! And in case you do have some minor issues because of it you now know what you can do about it.

Agreed

Dropped camera original lens cracked dropped with hood good camera (no I did not drop my camera on purpose for this comment)

If you remove the waterproof lens cover, the glass cover, it is not waterproof. But, as with many things that are not waterproof, they can be used in snow, provided you do not get snow on it. This video is for information mostly, but in few situations, it could help with better image quality. For example, when the sun is at an angle that will then be diffracted by the protective glass. Only in some rare cases, I would guess it is a problem.

I removed them, you have to disconnect the ones at the top of the kayak where the rudder, on top of the kayak, then you pull them out.

Same bike differen plastics. Pretty much all the bikes. Same throttle, tires, breaks, frames. Different plastics, dashes, names.

I do have some riding videos at nigh and what you see on the channel. But what do you want to know about it?

@@Andi_Doci maybe some updates of what the scooter performed now and some more walk around and maintenance video

Yes, normal storage size as in any other scooter. Not super secure but it's there and it's the usual size. Good enough for a half helmet and a lite jacket.

I have not tested it with the 120 FPS, but it does no problem and just fine with same settings, all features enabled for best quality and performance at 60 FPS. So, I would say there is no reason as to why it should not. Also, the power bank I have listed in the description has a power save feature in one of the USB outputs and not the other. So, if you find it that your camera turns off at times right after you start recording without battery, it works fine for me when I switch to the other one. I don't remember if it's the left or right one. So, make sure you check before you decide to make a long trip.
