no time taken ;D ;D ;D

[Guest frank dooman]

what vel calk. are you useing strapper??

[greenlands]

Not sure what you mean Paul     ?????

The one on this site is working for me.

yes..im trying to work out the vel of the club..this aint happened b4

Sounds like a new calculator is in order mate

Paul if you want to e-mail them over i'll work them out for you.

thanks guys...its just worked ;D

 

thanks phil for the offer m8...maybe i could take you up on the offer if it goes again

[JohnQuinn]

I divide ma distance into yards then ma flying time into seconds. Divide the yards by the seconds and multiply by 60. Do this on ma phone as soon as i time in and Hey Presto!!

Any time.

when i do that  i get  tim  at the first stroke it will  be  ;D

yer beat ;D ;D

that doesn't calculate short and long run with variations

If you were flying 56miles 13yards. It took 1hr 14 mins and 40secs to complete you would multiply 56 by 1760 to convert miles to yards then add the 13 extra yards to give you 98573 total yards flown. Then you need the time in minutes so 74 mins are already known plus the forty seconds which are converted to minutes by dividing 40 by 60 for 0.66. Final calculation is 98573 divided by 74.66 for a velocity of 1320.29. Hope this is correct as this is the way my physics teacher telt me how tae dae it way back in the eighties. If he was wrang then theres been a few false positions in the fechan club until we got the computer software lol.  

Cheers steven

yep but you have to take the time of the master timer in some clubs  and the clock can  have a varying time   long run and a short run you need to know how all clocks are ruining ets  is run of atomic clock and don't have  any  variations

Quite right bigda. When a was a youngun seem tae remember some of the original STBs bein miles fast or slow un givin the clock setter all kinds o heedaches. The twa men who worked oot the velocities were wee Dickie Graham of the show fame and the late great John Carmichael. The backs o clock envelopes were very much tae the fore LOL.

DO T3 NOT ALL SICRONISE TO THE MINUTE ASWELL WHEN STRUCK

Have had ets clocks many times that are + or - a sec out.

they should be self correcting if they are working of a satellite

Had mine a second out a few times, never could understand why  :-/
