Does the rotating base plate or the altitude axis/bearing have some kind of scale to figure out degrees for altitude and azimuth. Sorry real noob here

It does not. Google "setting circles for a dob" and this might be able to help you out.

No, and you don't need it unless you are trying to record those measurements. The finder scope and SkyQuest software make it really easy to find things.

They do not, though they would be easy enough to make up and apply yourself.

No unfortunately this scope does not have scales on it or at least mine doesn't . It is more for just looking around free hand.

I'm not sure what the degrees is. It adjust all the way down and all the way up. Truly a great investment. I've had it for quite some time now and it is very durable. Love it. Hope this helps.

No, it gives you the compass bearing and distance from your selected base and waypoints. It does that quite well.

What the manual is saying if you calibrate this scale at say 100 ft above sea level and than use the scale at 10,000 ft above sea level you will need to recalibrate the scale.

Yes it does...the different units can be selected via the software app. You can also use a combination of Imp and SI units for speed , distance and altitude.

Our globe pivots on the rack like affair that holds the globe so that you can view the north & south pole by pivoting the globe, as well as spinning the globe. Hope that helps.

No it does not display altitude. This device measures your speed, heartrate, and cadence (rate at which you are spinning the pedals). That's all. It does not have any GPS or the like.

If you mean the round dish-No. You need the oval dish because it looks at more than one satellite so it needs skew adjustment in addition to azimuth and elevation.

Yes, it features a multi-function ErgoStand with tilt, swivel, pivot and height adjustment. The displays can be pivoted 90 degrees clockwise for both horizontal and vertical viewing. They can also be tilted from -5 to 35 degrees back in the high position and from -5 to 25 degrees in the low position. A 120-degree swivel provides more viewing angles with the ability to move the panel 60 degrees to the right or left without moving the base.

its determined by gps, it is fairly accurate of couse the more satellite's the better. it does compensate for changes in ground level from take off, it can not adjust to upcoming terrain in flight. so using waypoints flying at an altitude of 300ft and you fly toward a hill thats 600ft your gonna have problems

It works with Air pressure to measure altitude gain. You set it at zero before launch and it reads the current pressure. Then it reads the pressure at maximum altitude and calculates feet. It is extremely accurate. I highly recommend this product. You may want to get a locator as well though. We did not and lost the rocket after about a dozen launches.

Dear Meda, thanks for your enquiry, when you hook it up to the disk, it will not display the angle, about your first word "azsmuth", sorry i can't understand your meaning, but this product can display the signal strength, thank you!

A satellite finder helps sometimes, but is not necessary. The elevation read out is very accurate and I use my GPS to tell me my direction (not a compass).

It gives you the degrees to do compound miters flat on one chart and the other chart gives roof pitch. I hope that helps

When you loosen the ball, it will rotate 360. There is a tilt as well built into the ball socket, as well don't forget there is another tilt available at the mounting point for the ball assembly. Remember, this unit will need to be attached to an actual mount. There is no way to really have full rotation on all 3 axis, except in your bare hands, with no mounts. My purpose was to allow forward and rearward facing angles for a motorcycle mount, which this does perfectly

best way to check for accuracy is a good grade surface plate and you cant adjust them but you can calibrate it it comes with instructions how to calibrate it
