Lorenzo Candelpergher Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Dear Desert Wanderers, Congratulations for successfully completing your Absolute Newbie Drive with @Carnity. A whole world of off-roading opportunities is now opening in front of you! Before I forget, as promised, here are a couple of interesting links about off-road gear and compressors: Essential off-roading gear: https://carnity.com/advice/offroad/essential-off-road-gear-r131 Off-roading flags: https://carnity.com/forums/topic/15560-offroad-flag-guidelines Compressors: https://carnity.com/forums/topic/16760-the-ultimate-compressor-review-2021 Looking forward to seeing you in the next drives! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankit Jain Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 Hello, is it recommended to get Extreme body wash, which includes engine wash as well, after off-roading as the engine also gets very muddy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do just a regular wash, you can just ask them to use the compressed air to blow out all the sand from the engine bay. Before they do that though, take a look at the engine bay yourself to see if sand is stuck anywhere or looks damp, if there is, that could mean you also have a leak that you may not notice after the engine bay is cleaned.

Brette Posted October 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 @Noel Garcia @Rajat Verma @Gertjan @Wendee Hill @Vaibhav Walavalkar @Malcolm Harrison @Waqar.S @Jona @Manoj Soman @SHARATCHANDRA NAMBIAR@Ankit Jain Thank you for joining Friday Absolute Newbie drive, it was a pleasure to drive with you all. Being an absolute newbie you all did great and learned really well. Moving forward you all will be joining the Newbie drives and not an Absolute Newbie drive anymore. Drives are announced every Sunday at 11 am, and they go live on Sunday at 7:00 pm. Due to the high demand, these drives get full in about 10 minutes, so please be online at 7 pm to book your spot. If you miss a spot, put your name on the waitlist asap. Generally, by Thursday with dropouts everyone does get a spot if they have waitlisted. For the next drives, please bring along a deflator, pressure gauge, flag, compressor and radio as a minimum. Learn to deflate your tires and checking them precisely Learn to fix a flag on your car Learn to program and fully charge your radio Also like I mentioned during the debriefing, join the Carnity Whatsapp Drive Notification to get the latest updates on the drives, so that you can RSVP on time for the next weekend's drive. Please have a look at below topic which describes the tools needed for every level. There is a separate tutorial inside which explains which radio we recommend and how to program them: (Please do not buy the Baofeng 888S spare radio we gave you, as these cannot be programmed without a special cable and software). Please have a look at below grading structure that explains various off-road levels: See you guys and gals soon on the sand again. Take care. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankit Jain Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 Dear @Brettecan you please confirm a walkie talkie with Frequency range of 400-470 MHz and 16 preset channels within the frequency range will work? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @Ankit Jain plz share the model. You will need to make sure the 16 channels can be programmed as per our frequencies (not a pre-programmed model like the Baofeng 888 model). Motorola MT-777 or Crony MT-777 are good, as well as the Baofeng UV5R. 1 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further."
