Re: Distance to travel once targetted?

For one reason or another the distance we were getting using tangent was close (within a couple feet) but not nearly accurate enough. This could be due to significant figures in many different variables (we tried multiple times to make it as accurate as possible).

Does anyone have any say on this?

For now we are using the tilt angle as the indicator at how close we are to the actual light.
