......the angle of the dangle |
|
has anyone tried to work out the angle or gradient of the slope
The may be a silly question....on the slope & the Disco comes to a stop is the is intentional or did the car stop trough not being able to go? BREXIT - done properly.

Hmmm....Steep yes... but the growth direction of some of the vegetation there suggests a slight trick of the camera angle perhaps ...no? 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

can't put my finger on it, but theres something odd about the speed of the car and the rotation of the wheels. Almost as if it being roped up, but I can't see a rope ...
If its kosha though ..............Somewhere in-between my old D3 and what's to come next .........

Some of the not so luck ones…
Unfortunately I did not take the video myself, but I also think that there is a slight camera trick involved.

Tiaan that looks like "Koos se Klip" ?
If you look at the tree in the right hand side of the picture from about 2:08 onwards, the tree appears pretty much vertical. From what I have heard it is supposed to be in the low 40's (deg).

Looking at the failed hill climbs... makes the D3 look very impressive Camera tricks / angles or not.

The lightness on the front of the D3 did make it look like it was being winched up... I even spent ages looking for any blurring where the cable had been removed from the image
Hats Off
