I tried to remove the cover and couldn't. Mine is 03/24 build.

Yes. The panels are bolted to the chassis, you can use any material, like thicker armour, etc, but why? Here is a pic of the chassis, you can see the mounting bolts.

The under-bed storage is also the coolest, here is my data.

I need to secure a power amplifier (RF amplifier) and other electronics under the rear seats, can I do so using some 1 1/2" self tapping screws? I probed the carpet with a needle and it seems to go in, there is some sort of semi-soft material under (foam?). From the pictures I see, there is...

Please share the outcome of the service visit. Specifically, ask Service if this will be fixed with a powertrain software update. Thank you!

Ebay. They sell all kinds of sizes. https://www.ebay.com/itm/166159441696?var=465694806503

The Scorpion will look great on Cybertruck! I might go to IDXC on Saturday, thank you for pointing this out! My tank will be easy to spot in the parking lot. :) For powering my IC-705, I am using a USB-PD 15V "trigger" cable... At ~2A load I get a ~0.5V drop across the cable. Maximum voltage...

I worked at night on my cybertruck installing things, I noticed that the interior lights are weaker than an Iphone flashlight. You drop something on the floor, good luck finding it at night. LED lights are cheap, I wonder why CT doesn't have stronger interior lighting, is this a safety issue...

That's possible as well!... "Amateur Radio (ham radio) is a hobby and service that brings people, electronics and communication together". The fun thing is that you can use a lot of power (up to 1500 watts) on shortwave (worldwide), VHF, UHF and microwave bands using voice and digital modes.

I have a Model Y 2021-ish, the one with the heat pump. I get broadband HF noise when accelerating and when turning on the HVAC everything goes to S9. VHF/UHF is clean. Maybe it is due to my poor setup, I have lip-mounts installed on the trunk, probably not the best ground plane, no ground strapping.

'73s. My call sign is KN6KEZ (Pleasanton, California). Good to know so many HAMs are into Cybertruck, awesome machine. :)

Yes, 15V or 12V USB-PD trigger cables will work with IC-705, please make sure you get the 5.5mm 2.5mm connector option (2.1mm won't fit).

Thank you for your reply and good to know. Yes, it happens with both light acceleration or regen. I hope it is a motor(s) calibration issue, some sort of low-duty cycle feedback loop that becomes a little unstable at light loads. My VIn is ~34xx.

>I'm curious what were the main considerations with regard to deciding upon a left or right side >mount. I clipped two antenna lip-mounts on both sides, the left side is for HF, the right side is VHF/UHF. My main consideration was to avoid the HV cables as much as possible (right side = better...

LOL, Yes! Even with the whip disconnected I can still receive signal... The other half of the dipole is the Cybertruck body!

I posted a video file... Is your sound similar? Thanks.

Additional note: The KS-400 lipmount is kinda expensive ($89), if you want an IDENTICAL heavy huty mount in stanless steel (has much better chassis ohmic resistance), buy this one, it includes a VHF/UHF high gain antenna ($35 for both!)

I hope I can find a way through the truck bed 'firewall" (bulkhead). For the radio mounting, I am still researching how to use the giant dashboard without drilling.... For now I used the cell phone charging tray it perfectly holds the IC-705 (but no phone) and occasionally there is a strong...

NOTE: For the test I used WSPR. If you are wondering what the data rate is: a whopping 1.5bps, yes, around 1bit per second. :)
