Gear Indicator video.

[Shaun]

Gday all,

I had the phone mounted on the bike and it occurred to me to video the new gear indicator in action. Here is a snippet.


Cheers, Shaun

Edit: BBcode doesn't seem to be parsing this link. BBCode is:

I created a mount for the magnet out of some plastic bits I had. It needed to be wedge shaped so that the magnet would move parallel to the plane of the sensor coils. I eventually mounted it on the forward side of the gear lever.

It is taped in place at the moment, to allow for fine movements so that I get true positive readings and I am happy with where it is now. I have marked it off ready to araldite or some other form of adhesive.

Cheers, Shaun

Shaun, I can't get the link to work   
I've tried the following combinations:

Yeah that seems to work Kev. I only got it to work in IE using that method, but at least it can be seen.

c/p into IE browser.

Finally! Thanks Kev and Shaun. My default is iGoogle, and also tried Firefox (neither of which would play it), but IE won the day 

Anyway, it looks good. I tried installing mine on Friday but couldn't find anywhere to mount the pickups other than on the plastic, and I didn't want to do that as what happens when I take the tupperware off.
I'll work on it..

I mounted mine on the plastic, but used screws and nuts (little bitty ones). When I need to remove the plastic I just unscrew the pickups first. I have labelled mine T and B (for top and bottom) so I put them back right!

PS Royst1100, copy the following:

www.flickr.com/apps/video/stewart.swf?v=109786]http://width="400" height="300" flashvars="intl_lang=en-us&photo_secret=e2aa9cea40&photo_id=6952306984" bgcolor="#000000" allowFullScreen="true"

and paste into the Internet Explorer browser bar where you would normally type a webpage address.

Then press the play button.

For some reason, that is the only way it wants to play from outside flickr.
