Trackman University - Good way to test your radar knowledge

[nevets88]

It's basically adaptive testing - if you've taken certification tests for any industry or the GMAT, GRE, etc... on a computer, that's what it is. I wonder if most of the terms transfer over to Flightscope. I guess most of them do. Anyway, worth it especially when you read instruction articles that throw around radar terms or to fill in gaps you're unaware of.

So one of the questions goes something like this. What does spin axis measure?

• Back spin
• Side spin
• Gyro spin
• Tornado spin

Tornado spin. Ha ha ha.

With softball questions like that it sounds more like Trackman Diploma Mill than University.

That's an anomaly, w/respect to being serious. Overall, I think the tests are pretty good intro to TM.

Thanks for posting Trackman University. I signed up out of curiosity and find it very interesting and once I can grasp the terms completely it should me help have a better understanding of the full benefits of using Trackman.

That's too funny!! I was just hitting on FlightScope yesterday wondering the same thing.  I went ahead and enrolled, but haven't had the time to sit down and dig through the content yet.

Anyone know how long this site has been up??

I was just being facetious. Their explanation videos about ball flight are quite good.

Here's a link to a playlist of TM videos - it's not complete, but basics are there.
