ACE3 AtragMX+Kestrel: About measuring wind 

E: I'll try to push the new vid out this month. But I know I'll probs end up taking decades to get it done. Recorded one version already but it ended up being 30 mins and ended up lacking a common thread while I brought up the majority of the relevant topics. Meanwhile feel free to check the WIP guide I've been working on. I feel like it conveys the message better docs.google.com/document/d/1S4AnHPNLhvb5ii5AXP_DlIgvo7q85BXrioOG1367jHk/edit?usp=sharing - - - - - One thing I didn't know back when recording this video was that when ignoring the effect of the terrain shapes or objects, the measurable (=sensable) wind increases logarithmically depending on the altitude Above Terrain Level until 20 meters. However, this measurable value isn't the one which ace uses to stimulate the shot. You need the absolute, "true" wind speed (measurable at 20 m ATL) In practice this means that whenever you measure a wind value while on top of a hill, for instance, the wind you are able to measure is incorrect for Atrags' calculations. Even if you measure it with the accurate direction. As a quick fix, if you're proning and facing the wind without factors obstructing the measurement, you get a value close to the true crosswind by dividing your measurements with 0.6. I know, it sounds random but it works. If you're "behind"the hill from the perspective of the wind, well, tough luck. Try better positioning next time :D Might make a vid about this later

2:42 you enter 8 o'clock but the wind indicator is showing 10 o'clock?

thank you for explaining how to use the kestrel but isn't the latitude of Altis 35? Your is set to 40 do we just round it up?

Why doesn't your atrag show spin drift and coriolis corrections

LOL, uses all the fancy hi tech complex gear and measurements, and then enters the wrong clock time and misses every shot
