Pretty daring to call that ā€œsolderingā€. Super glue would have yielded better results.

Brain worms involved to go ā€œthis is okayā€

Reminds me of my first time ever soldering, before I learned how, or what solder to use, and using a shit $10 iron.

Everyone starts somewhere I guess.

Been bugging the guy to drop off his board for me to look at.

He just bought a new batt and ESC from @Skyart thst I’m installing. I’m shocked opening this thing up :rofl:

Solder is hanging on by hopes and dreams alone.

Literally pulled those wires apart with just two fingers

Soldering with a lighter is easily 10x better than that lmao

So my engineers installed new fans on the pavilion at work. 12 of them.
First of all, they called in a service to install 12 ceiling fans. Our engineering department. Ok? Bad.
Next, the guy the called in was literally just a local homeless dude who took 3 days to put up 12 fans. Bad.
Here’s where it gets fun. My head engineer is working today. Side note: he is paid around $110,000 a year, and this is the hardest I’ve ever seen him work. He realized they did not wire the fans to the switches. He doesn’t know how. There are 12 remotes. One per fan. He doesn’t know how to pair them.

Ready? Are you sure?

He just gave me this ā€œremoteā€ he made. It’s about 8x14. It took every single drop of my self control not to crack up laughing and start roasting him.

given the numbers, are they now paired or not? :smiley:

One per fan. Just as he found them.

Now you got perfect local control, idk what you’re complaining about. :smiley:

Now, I care about appearances less than anyone else involved in these events, and I will not be pulling this ghetto shit out during any kind of function.
Also all the remotes IR signal emitters face the center of the board.
There were at least 10 better solutions. Primarily putting all of the fans on a single channel, or preferably connecting them to the existing switches. I would’ve taken attaching them to the back of the wooden fence.
But this is just laughable. :rofl:

Worth mentioning, these are out door fans next to the beach, I never need less than all of them.

just buy one of those universal remote and store all the IR signal, u can have it for public use, or to urself.
