Here are some more information for Nitrous System Switch:
Carbon dioxide or CO2 is a trace gas in the earth's atmosphere. CO2 has been at the center of the global warming controversy, but probably has a greater effect on the environment concerning pollution. Global warming is affected by so many variables that it is impossible to say definitively exactly what percentages are attributed to each variable.
Natural Weather Cycles and CO2
are a major factor as is solar activity and sunspots. CO2 is only approximately 0.038 percent of the earth's atmosphere. Before the industrial age CO2 was about 280 ppm (parts per million) and today it is about 382 ppm. This is about a 36% increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. However, since CO2 is only a fraction of 1%, even at a 100% increase other gases swallow any fractional percentage increases of carbon dioxide. Keep in mind that most carbon dioxide is natural and good.
It is used for carbonating soft drinks, in fire extinguishers, dry ice, greener propellant for aerosol cans, medical respiration, for transporting our food under good refrigeration, de-caffeinated coffee and many more great uses.
Earth's Most Abundant Greenhouse Gases
- Water Vapor
- Carbon Dioxide
- Methane
- Nitrous Oxide
- Ozone
- Chloroflourocarbons
Carbon Dioxide is Emitted Naturally
CO2 is emitted naturally through "Carbon Sink". Carbon sink is in several forms but the vast majority is from the ocean and plants. This natural emission dwarfs any man-made emissions. It can be argued though, that CO2 in the ocean has increased since the Industrial Age. Plants give off carbon dioxide as a natural function of photosynthesis.
Man-Made Carbon Dioxide
The Industrial Age has brought about an increase in CO2 from the burning of fossil fuels. This takes place in many forms including your breath. The air we exhale has a much higher concentration of carbon dioxide then the air we inhale. Obviously, this is from the consistent inner warm temperature of our body. Other major causes of man-made CO2 are coal, oil and gas.
It has been noted that just the improvement of emissions on automobiles will have a tremendous affect on lowering the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. This is especially true if people switch to an electric car or one that gives off very little carbon dioxide. The newer vehicles today have drastically improved in this area.
China and India
China is the leading emitter of carbon dioxide in the world having recently taken over the United States. This unfortunate leading position is likely to increase even more because regulations are not as strict in China. Everyone remembers the Summer Olympics when China built giant walls and billboards to try and hide the waves of pollution. The anthropogenic or man-made pollution is so bad that some athletes refused to train there.
India is on track to over take China as the most populated country in the world in the next two decades. India is also ill equipped to control their pollution. China and India see more of a need to get their people out of extreme poverty then to have a clean environment. There are some solutions such as retrofitting factories with the expensive pollution control equipment.
Global Environment
Until this is accomplished no matter what the United States does it will be like a drop in the ocean if China and India do not cooperate. The environment is being affected by greenhouse gases much more than global warming. Since the Industrial Age has increased CO2 in the earths atmosphere we should try to reduce it. The bigger reason is for the environment not because of global warming. Many people who live in close proximity to industry have problems with asthma, cancer and a host of other diseases.
Global Cooling
Many meteorologists and scientists have recently predicted the world is going into a global cooling period. Amazingly, global warming alarmists blame global warming on global cooling or global freezing temperatures. Even though there was an Ice Age without man-made CO2 emissions. Go figure.
7 Tips To Maximizing Your Battery Performance
Battery technology seems to have taken a leaping step recently, allowing electric RC models to go places where once only nitrous model could go. Leading this innovation are the Li-Po or Lithium Polymer batteries which has become the standard power source for electric powered helicopters, planes, cars, boats, and almost every other type of model. However, these batteries are not exactly cheap, and improper operations will have detrimental effects. Here are seven tips to maximize your battery performance.
1. Break In New Batteries
Although not as big a deal with newer Li-Po packs as it was when NiMh and NiCad batteries were kings, it is still recommended that you fully charge the battery before first use. Fully discharging and charging batteries a few times before first flight or will also give your battery a little bit extra lifetime and power.
2. Keep the pack clean
This is probably one of the most overlooked aspects of battery operations. It is a good idea to keep the battery pack clean, and this is especially important for the dean connectors. If the dean connectors are dirty, the connection may be obstructed and could result in a mid-flight power failure. The easiest way to clean dirty contacts is simply with alcohol and cotton swaps.
3. Keep up the battery's health by constant exercise
Leaving the battery inactive for a long period of time shorten its life and decrease its total potential. You should use your battery pack at least once every one to two weeks. Fully discharging then charging the pack will also quell this problem.
4. Take breaks between flights
A fully charged li-po pack has enough power for a 10-minute flight. However, to fly for ten minutes straight on one pack is not recommended. If you have two packs, it's best to fly a 5 minute flight, switch to a fresh pack, fly for another 5 minute, and then switch back to the old pack. Doing this will greatly increase the life-span on the battery.
5. Do not charge when hot
Never charge the battery pack while it is still hot. Battery pack becomes very hot right after a flight; you must wait until it cools down before charging it again. Charging a still-hot pack is one of the most successful ways to shorten a battery's life.
6. Store them well
To store the battery for a prolonged period (a month or more), the best way to store them is in a clean, dry, cool place away from metal and heat. Remember also that battery packs loose charge over time even without usage.
7. Avoid hard impact
Individual cells within a battery pack can be damaged upon heavy impact which could cause circuit leaks and can be dangerously unstable. There is also no way to repair a damaged cell. Try your best not to crash, but of course, we all already do.

where can i put a nitrous oxide jet in a 5.0 stock foxbody so its hidin from the naked eye?
i dont have the money or the need for the holly Under Manifold Cheater Hidden Nitrous System but i want to be able to flip the switch and have some more ponys on the street without THE MAN seeing it under the hood
yeah, paint the lines black so it looks like any other hoses
