Intravee G Accuracy...

Just wondering if anyone has correlated the acceleration measurements on intravee to more specialist device...?

I assume the intravee G is a calculated figure? If so, this can't be real right? Amazing if so!!

 
Acceleration in G.
The highest recorded acceleration.
Deceleration in G.
The highest recorded deceleration.

The acceleration and deceleration figures are calculated by the change in speed over the speed broadcasts every 2 seconds and as such represent an average G force value over the 2 second period.
Values can be reset by pressing and holding the rotary controller while any of the data fields are selected, or while on the Secondary status screen for the Mk IV Nav with software 4-1/40 or higher.
 
So to paraphrase, yes it is a calculated value. Which means the acceleration g could have been higher at one point...

What's the highest other people have seen?
 
The maximum I've seen is a little over 0.7 for acceleration and a little over 1.1 for breaking - slamming the anchors on from 180mph plus gives some really impressive values!

But you are correct, particularly for acceleration, the peak values will have been much higher, it's difficult to maintain acceleration for a 2 second period whereas prolonged deceleration is easier to achieve. You will only be able to achieve the maximum values if you happen to start accelerating just before the 2 second interval starts so you can maintain it over the full period.

1) how/where the hell did you get up to 180mph
2) I assume you were running out of space hence slamming on the anchors! Lol bet what chewed your pads!
 
Your cars limiter disabled? Which z dies 180mph? Can only assume it's the M version...
