I’ve just bought some hard terra pegs and the soft terra pegs for sand Attachment 88080Attachment 88081

I’m fitting the starlink tomorrow, have ordered the 12v to 57v inverter so hopefully that turns up next week, mate made me a spacer to lift the body up off the roof rack floor and bolted mounting up ready for installation, he’s pretty handy and does a great job.Attachment 88082Attachment 88083

Which one did you order? I'm waiting for Starpower one (from SpaceTek in Mildura) to arrive in the mail.

Now you've let the cat out the bag we'll be expecting updates from mid Simmo! Just think of the blackmail opportunities! :animierte-sm

Two different types, well that's going to help me decide. C'mon I need someone to tip the scales.

On a recent trip to Rocklands this Anzac weekend just on the other side of the Grampians the ground was "rock" hard and I struggled to get in my 8 mm steel pegs in. For that kind of ground I will buy some screwing ones, but sand is all new to me

Really soft sand the screw in are the go, firmer sand the drive in are good, for rock hard the metal pegs I bought have a masonry bit on the end 👌

Starlink on the roof permanently, can be removed by undoing lock nuts, waiting on 12v power supply to arrive Monday then I’ll give it a try.

Watching keenly as have a unit as well, but still too many things in front of the Starlink mount.
