Hello Everyone !
So today, I am going to introduce you the wind meter from Opale Paramodels
What is this instrument good for?
This is a tool that we use when we practice paragliding or RC paramotor
It will let us know the wind speed and other parameters
So we are going to get to the heart of the subject
I turn it on
I press the button and the wind meter starts
and we can see directly the display of the windspeed
I always put my wind meter in the airflow direction
Here we are on a slope We have a dynamic effect
The airflow is going to be tilted in the direction of the slope
Here I put the wind meter in the highest position as possible
Then I read
For example, I put it a little on its side
Here we have the display of the windspeed
Temperature, humidity rate, and Beaufort scale as well
Then, it is possible to change the unit
I just have to press the « Units » button
And I can obtain miles per hour, meters per second,
In feet per minutes, in knots
And here I come back in kilometers per hour.
it is also possible by pressing the « set »button »
We can obtain the maximal value
At the moment we turned on the wind meter
The minimal value and so the average value
That’s it !
Nothing complicated !
It is still a tool with an ease of measure
Avoid the traps!
Please do not make a measure in this way
The measure will be false because we are straight
and the airflow is in this way
We remain in the highest position as possible
In order to have the most stable measure
So we are done for today
You know everything about the wind meter
Enjoy your flights and see you soon !
