So I sold my skytrak and picked up a Flightscope Xi+ Taylormade Tour Preferred unit.
I get the unit working with my iPad, and I have time to hit a single half wedge shot. My space is limited, it was perfect for a Skytrak, and in theory works with short indoor mode. So I hit my half wedge, and I got all the data available from the Xi Tour (club path, club Plane, etc etc) I turned off the unit since I had to get my kids in bed. The next day I set it up to let my 3 year old play (he loves the target practice, he asks me to setup the tablet for him, he loves hitting on the green!) so I watched him hit, and I got the ball speed, carry, roll, total distance lateral, time, spin, spin axis, V Launch, H Launch, V Descent, and Height. I hit a few and got the same data. I'm guessing I didn't get club data because there wasn't a direct line from the unit to my club at the time. But I'm still curious if anyone else has this unit and knows what data I should be getting? Also, if correct setup will affect what data I get?
I will be going to galaxy tomorrow to try it on the open bay with plenty of space.
My other question is can I play E6 or other golf software using my taylormade flightscope? I want to set it up to get a small league going for my friends (I know putting doesn't really work, but it would still be fun) I'm going to contact flightscope as well, but I figured there must be other guys out there with toys same unit.
Any advice on setup or information for a new user would also be appreciated
