GBCA Discussion Forum

We've been using iRegatta for some time but there's a new entrant in the field: RaceQs. We will be running both in the Icicle series.

If others sign up we can compare performance.

Sample output from RaceQs.

What boat?

Cool.  If I get time I will get the app.

I got the app and signed up but I have not had time to set it up.  What do i need to do?

The app has 2 uses: live start line countdown and performance, or, capturing boat data during a race. It also captures all the boat motion's using the sensors inside your phone. I used it in latter mode (since we have iRegatta for starts and performance), and created this replay of our boat in Icicle Race I. I haven't yet figured out how to show other boats in the same regatta.

I figured out how to use it but did not turn it on.  Will do that next week.  I have iNaX on Stinger and have been making tracks from that.  Gets kind of boring after a while.

Very nice display.  Could not figure out how to zoom out but other then that display was neat.

Here's Cyrano's replay from race 3.



Common GBCA racers, get RaceQs for your phone, run it during the race with the phone flat on a chart table, and we'll have a fleet view.

can un-common gbca racers participate also?   

Certainly leaves me out.

Oh sorry I forgot we are all special! 

Some of us are just excellent ballast.  I resemble that remark.

Heck of a 4th/5th place finish. Continuing thread here.
