Considering RCP: Questions
Posted: Tue May 17, 2016 4:05 pm
I'm considering Race Capture Pro for road racing & time trials. I like that RCP has a lot of inputs and that it uses a tablet (instead of a proprietary screen for a display). I have a few questions:
1. I've downloaded the android app on to my tablet. I've updated the tracks from the server. I see my local track High Plains Raceway listed under Tracks on podium.live. But it's not in the track list in the app. How would I go about loading this track so that RCP can use it?
2. I wouldn't be buying the telemetry option. So my data would be stored on the SD card. What's the process for loading data from an SD card to podium.live?
3. A good friend has RCP in his race car. I've spent some time looking at our race laps on podium.live. I see a lot of great data and a couple of problems:
A) Both windows on the podium.live web page for the track map are pretty tiny. When I zoom way in to see the driven line, its like looking through a key hole -- making it very hard to use the map. Are there any plans to fix this and provide a way to view the track map in a much larger window?
B) The web page shows options to view the data by Distance and Time. The Time option does not work. Is there a plan to fix this?
4. I'm interested in having a brake pressure sensor in my setup. I don't see one listed on your sensors page. Which sensor(s) do you recommend?
Thanks very much!
