Testing a TruTrak Pictorial Turn & Bank indicator on the ground?

The TruTrak does not display bank.Â* It shows rate of turn which, as we
all know, varies with airspeed given a constant bank angle. IMHO, a turn
needle is much better than the TruTrak display which can lead some to
think that it's displaying bank.

Maybe tape the unit to handlebars of a bicycle/motorcycle, apply external power, turn unit on and ride around straight as well as turns in both directions.

Why?

In a car it "banks the wrong way" for a turn.

Just a thought.....I am sure there are better ways, I'm trying to think of cheap and easy ways......

BTW, hi Evan......say Hi to the family......
It should bank the "right" way in a car. In a right turn it will show a right bank. How much depends on the rate of turn, it could be done in a big empty parking lot.

What does the manufacturer say ? Do you have the manual ?
