[@ItchyFeetOz]

beautiful Stephan, as always. Great footage, and looks like a great trip!

[@AlloffroadAu]

Many thanks!

[@simonmiles4727]

Really enjoyed that footage You certainly seem to be evolving your style for the better

[@AlloffroadAu]

Thanks a ton! Invested in some new camera gear and this gives me different options, for instance never had a goo option of zooming in over 105 now that has changed

[@deldridg]

Can't help with your issue, but you made a very good decision - to make sure there's a Nissan in the group! 😄 Love your work and can't wait to get back out there (in our Nissan of course...). Cheers from Sydney - Dave

[@AlloffroadAu]

lol yes, mind you on the last Desert trip it was the other way around lol

[@deldridg]

@@AlloffroadAu Well, we think your videos are wonderful and they really convey the love you have for the bush. My wife and I have been 4WD camping with our kids since they were born and they too have a deep love and respect for our natural world. A few years ago we camped at Talbotville and did a lot of exploring in the area, learning the history as we did so (Wanangatta Station etc.). Now we're keen to check out Mitchell's track! Thank you for the huge effort you go to and cheers from Sydney - David and family

[@AlloffroadAu]

thanks David

[@reddustadventures]

Looks like an awesome trip mate. Some beautiful scenery and magic water holes. Keen to know the outcome with your driveline / driveshaft clunk We have a savage clunk in ours at the moment also.

[@AlloffroadAu]

yea will update comment tomorrow was something quite unexpected and very minor.

[@reddustadventures]

@@AlloffroadAu No worries mate. Great video like normal 👌

[@jefffilip8124]

Awesome work Stephan, I really loved the toothbrush methodology, its the one I've used for years, but never in front of anyone, you've given me permission to do it any where any time. Keep it up, being real.

[@AlloffroadAu]

Awesome, thank you!

[@OffroadTouringLife]

Great episode Stefan. My GreatGrandmother used to travel int Mitchell’s Flat via the bridal path from Jamieson to spend time with the Hoskins. She was from Jamieson and had a farm on the Jamieson Licola road. It was in the family for over 150 years. My Nanna was was also born in Jamieson. I fond have memories of the Mitchell’s Homestead. There was also another gut located there but has since long gone. I could t tell you how many times I have been into Mitchell’s. In the early mid 80s we even took an extra lid hiace van in there....I was way to you g to drive then. We were loaded up with our family and the cousins. Thanks for a great episode and I’ll definitely be watching the next part. Cheers Richard.

[@AlloffroadAu]

[@Cicada4WD]

[@paultucker4923]

Nice work Stephan. Always enjoy the historical contexts. Hope to get there one day. UJs on the propshaft OK?

[@AlloffroadAu]

Fingers crossed! yep unis and prop checked before trip

[@GregPalmer2]

Lovely area,l just got back from Running Creek not for from that area.

[@AlloffroadAu]

Sure is!

[@notlosthonest]

I have found if you have 2 mapping apps open (mud maps and Exploroz for eg) and operating at the same time on the same device they will fight to use the GPS which will cause one app to shut down or freeze up. not to mention how many apps we have running in the background will also add to the issues. Look forward to your next vid.

[@AlloffroadAu]

hm I’m using two or sometimes more mapping apps for years at the same time and hardly ever had an issue. When testing, I sometimes track and recorded 4 apps at the same time to compare accuracy, again hardly ever an issue. That's on iOS and iPhone, and iPad. Used for years Hema 4x4 and Mud Maps to record tracks at the same time also mostly without issues.

[@shdhrjdi]

Hello you had a episode where your friend had some trouble with his dobinson shock absorbers and had said you were going to discuss it i the next episode I’m having trouble trying to find it

[@AlloffroadAu]

He only got the car back a few weeks ago issue is still there Dobinson said it was the bracket position he will try now if that makes a difference. Support was not as helpful according to him.

[@andrewtoon1954]

Hi I hope you don't mind me asking a couple of questions as adventurers like yourself I think are the best to ask. Firstly what type of drone do you have the other is what program do you use to edit your filming. Really enjoy watching your trips. Andrew

[@AlloffroadAu]

I have a few Drones so have other people in the group. From Mavic Air, Mini to Mavic Classic 3. I use Final Cut Pro to edit but probably switch soon to Davinci Resolve

[@andrewtoon1954]

@@AlloffroadAu thankyou for getting back to me

[@silknfeathers]

Curious, Stefan, are you sponsored by Memory Maps at all? Great video, just came back from that area myself.

[@AlloffroadAu]

please watch the MemoryMaps review it has a full disclosure, MM hired me last year as a consultant to improve the unreleased MMFA version and paid me on a hourly base for my work. They also provided me a referral link same as EOT, Avenza, GAIA and others so I get a small kickback if you purchase trough the link. I otherwise have no relationship with MM and they have never paid me for a review or content. MM maps has always been one of my favourite apps which I use for 10 years or so. Given MM for all has quite a few features I suggested I obviously do like it but will report and treat it exactly the same as any other GPS app.

[@silknfeathers]

@@AlloffroadAu Thanks Stefan. I ask because I'm currently running EoTopo. I've had a few minor issues, but would like to look into MM.

[@AlloffroadAu]

yep I initially really liked EOT hence the good review at the time, however over the past year I had a to many issues with EOT so while I still like the maps the application has been to buggy, unstable and cumbersome for me to continue to recommend it as a main navigation app. I still like to use it for reference purposes though. MemoryMaps for all is free but you can get a 10% discount for the Hema Map Pack if you use this link w2.memory-map.com/cgi-bin/licuser.cgi?buy_e_package=1&package=3000074&adref=3001

[@Oz4me_craig]

Could be front diff teeth, or Cv issue?

[@AlloffroadAu]

some of the things we thought 💭 but was something very different will update post soon.

[@mattluszczak8095]

Did you do trip over new year?

[@AlloffroadAu]

nop finished 3 weeks ago

[@davidhowell5945]

Stephan, Have you done a “cold reboot” on the iPad or just restarted it?

[@AlloffroadAu]

Tried both, and magically EOT came back 2 days later without doing anything just in the morning after waking iPad up Maps where there again. Sadly just not a reliable app anymore.

[@silknfeathers]

@@AlloffroadAu Have you discussed with David and Michelle?

[@ExplorOz-Traveller]

Hello - we were notified by one of our app users to this video today and wanted to provide this clarification. We acknowledge that Stefan has posted his own experience here but for sake of clarity there was an issue that could have been resolved at the time (whilst offline, in the middle of nowhere) if he'd done either of these 2 things. Both can be done whilst offline in the middle of the bush. Simply:- 1. close the app and reopen OR 2. turn off the Wifi connection This bug that caused it has since been resolved in the latest version and at the time was isolated to iOS devices only, and only when the device had the setting on to allow a Wifi connection, but then if you'd gone offline and shut the app, the next time you opened the app AND was still OFFline, the white screen would appear as Stefan shows, but step 1 (close the app and reopen) would reset it. Whilst not ideal, most people should know that weird stuff always happens on any app/on any device and the first thing to do is always just quickly shut your app and restart. People do it all the time instinctively. This bug occurred out of the blue a few weeks ago and was due to an iOS update that hadn't been an issue in the app previously. As soon as we knew, we wrote the fix and that has been put into the v8 new release already which is now available (actually, only Playstore and Windows have approved/released it, it is awaiting store approval from Apple as I type so is just a matter of hours away from approval). You will note this fix is mentioned in the release notes for v8. See www.exploroz.com/traveller

[@AlloffroadAu]

@ExplorOz That is simply not true; the app was completely closed numerous times, the iPad was restarted numerous times, the iPad was put in aeroplane mode several times, and none of it brought EOT back. This is also not the first time this has happened the last time it happened was Christmas on our summer trip when at Hawksnest, with reasonable phone reception, EOT stopped working for two days, and no maps would load. By now, I have a year's worth of videos of all sorts of issues with EOT. It, unfortunately, is not software I can rely on.

[@zoezoe610]

Loose caliper ?

[@AlloffroadAu]

good guess but no

Steering?
