First of May ride

The cabin has now gopro 2 as a dashcam. garmin gps v tolerates 30VDC so it can be powered from the batteryvoltage and act as a gps receiver. GPS display is now in an ancient 12" display laptop, which can be a mp3 player as well. Laptop is powered from an 180W inverter. Gopro is powered through USB cable.

There is now 2x DC AUX terminals on dash and 1 extra terminal in instrument panel.

First live test was not successful, I have to tune up the laptop mount, it was too flexible now. The laptop is on RAM-C mount and I placed rubber cushions in lower mount and now there is a bit too much movement on top of the mount. Also I could not get GPS tracking in laptop, but that was a user error, you have activate tracking every time the Viking software is started in Linux.

I also tested Mavic Pro active tracking, which track target visually. It did not work well in forest, but if there is open plane it seems to be usable with Mogs speed. Video footage is in the link below...

First of May ride

There was some flooding in some places, but it was still a bit moderate. It will get worse when waters get loose...

The bike stand is on the way, here is some preview of the build. You should simply push the bike front wheel into the slot and then strap it from the handlebar. And maybe the rear wheel should be strapped also if the Mog makes a roll :)
