I feel like a nub asking this but in EFT with the tracking numbers off of the info page while equiped. The variation say .06 to .04 would be an increase in tracking right? or am I backwards?

Haven't used EFT in a while since I migrated to Pyfa, however larger tracking values are better.

Things are only impossible until they are not.

Thanks, i figured as much but I had some conflicting information come may way that made me doubt it.

Maybe its time I changed things up then and try that one out.

Tracking speed is measured in radians(of rotation) per second. So a higher number means faster tracking speed.

360° = 2*pi radians = 6.28 radians in a full circle

Don't be stingy with those likes, you've had a couple of folk take time to help you out.

Son of a *****. I thought I had this misclicking websites thing under control!



FFS, I hate it when I end up on the EFT forums by mistake.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

It takes a mathematician to take an infinitely irrational number and make a quantifiably specific value from it.
2pi * x = Gimme a break here.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Not sure if troll or offended by the imperfect way I included the units?

well e raised to the power of (i multiplied by pi) includes an imaginary and the result is -1

You didn't write it in the really cute form: e^(i * pi) + 1 = 0

Tracking formula is a really interesting piece of work, well worth some spreadsheet time.
