Do a search function of GPS using accuracy as your filter. Then look at the information that pops up! Then take 30 or 60 minutes and read COMPLETELY what is displayed on your screen with the 30 or more links! If your not smart enough to comprehend what has been presented for data then ask the questions you dont understand. Its not rocket science. I dont work for NASA. And I cant tell you who I do work for. But I sort of know GPS. At least more then you do by your comments. Stop spewing crap when you are uninformed!

    The truth doesnt lay in your comprehension of the way things work. There is your opinion and the way the real world works. Speak facts to me. Cite me a software data adjustment or factual manufacturer data sheet indicating an accuracy reading greater then 85% in less then 2 seconds. Your not going to find it. There is no single receiver software algorithms using precise DOP. Know what that is? Dilution of Precision? A degradation of accuracy over time?

    This is such a waste of time. Preaching about speed measurement accuracy when the readers dont even know the variables? Become informed. Learn how the technology works. Argue about the system capabilties knowing how it works, not the limited experience you have with a system.

    get off your high horse! were testing rc boat speeds here were not asking you to trust your life over the gps reading for god sakes! do you want me to bake you some hero cookies?? what temp should i set my oven too for them?? oh hell my recipe calls for 375f for 15 mins you think my oven is accurate enough for you or will they not taste good enough for ya????? hell your so smart you could probably eye ball speed better than gps huh???






    blah waste of typing.......................

      Get off the gas man, No one here really gives a crap about who or what you do for work. With your know it all ideology I will presume you work for Webster.

      I'm dont believe this. You call me a hater? Why? Cause I recommend he use bouys to verify his speeds? Go back and read my comments. I didnt call him a liar. I said dont rely on what is GPS information for assumptions. Its burnt more speed freaks like myself and him then one can conceive. I also stated he had the fastest HOR cat I have ever seen. Its not that he is exaggerating. All of us use GPS to improve our setups. For that purpose GPS works. To make the statement that I can achieve a quotable known factual speed? From a WAAS GPS? Dont speak stupid or stupid you will be judged.

      Quoting some number that inflates your ego doesnt make it factual. It means you believe something applicable only to you. Call yourself special and you expect the rest of us to accept that? Who the hell do you think you are? I'm done with this. Critique me and call me an idiot cause you dont comprehend how GPS really works. You got some nerve. Now go get a job where you can prove your opinion is accepted as a professional practice within industry standards.

        I think this topic has ran it's course. Its pretty easy to make a fair assesment based on the information already given in this thread. Anyone who hasn't listened to you up to this point isn't going to start now John.
        I think the people who are able to objectively look at information have done so, and the rest aren't going to change.
        Some posts are from intelligent people offering advice, and some are just from people who want to jump on a side and flame, with little or nothing to contribute.

        Where did your COG end up on your last run? I know I asked this once but I dont think I got a response. I dont really care where you are measuring it from, just something to comparitively reference. I have the same hull I am getting ready to maiden... unfortunately I dont have the same weather, so Im sidelined at the time.

          And this is why I'm back into FE Boats.. lot's of passionate people that really care about our sport and this is the kind of conversation that's made it was it is today. 20 years ago our boats didn't run nearly as quick but thanks to a little technological advancement and A LOT of passion here we are today racing boats up to 81mph. Great Run Howard!! =)

            I can give you a starting point of 13 from the rear or 10.25 from the rear tunnel. I need more testing. When i get it at 100% i will tell you. This hull is a challenge to figure out.

              I got out this morning for the 2nd test run. I still need to make some changes but it was handling much better. 88 is not 2 bad for the 2nd run. Well, 88 is what the gps said.

                        very nice Howard. very very impressive run (like the sound)
                        a small effort and you reach your 90mph.
                        what 's the propeller do you use?
                        it makes me want to follow you to reach 90 mph with my small mhz mystic c5000.
                        but not now because i waiting new esc.

                            You speeded up the frame rate in that video. And you drove around in your car with the gps on to get that reading!

                            HahahhahahahahHahaha. Just kidding Howard.
                            Nice job on this and congrats. :) Your not far from your goal speed keep it up man.
                            Love seeing that thing whizzing across the water.
