 E.G.  If we calibrate 1 n.m. at 2500 clicks (X=2500) and our sample/​update period is 2 seconds (Z=2), and over that period we count 10 clicks (Y=10), then calculated speed would be (10/​2500)/​(2/​3600) = S = 0.004 / 0.0006 = 6.67 knots. E.G.  If we calibrate 1 n.m. at 2500 clicks (X=2500) and our sample/​update period is 2 seconds (Z=2), and over that period we count 10 clicks (Y=10), then calculated speed would be (10/​2500)/​(2/​3600) = S = 0.004 / 0.0006 = 6.67 knots.

 +Hopefully we get faster turn rates that 5 rotations per second, otherwise it won't be very precise.
