For
Rotorcraft operators and balancing technicians
Worth noticing
The planned workflow includes optical tach sensing, a hands-on-controls capture button, and browser-based reports with CSV and JSON export.

Field notes

The described process compares a baseline run with a second run after adding a known trial weight, then calculates a correction and calls for verification. The page identifies optical tach sensing as the source of the phase reference. It also marks session reporting and CSV/JSON export as planned, while production packaging, a revised PCB, remote capture, and rugged sensor packaging remain development work.
