AeroPod, PowerPod and Newton

Looking forward to seeing the new app. I'd be glad to test it.

Likewise!

Thanks John!

I don't know if this is practicable, but it would add to the usability of the Aeropod to have ISAAC include the appropriate cdA scale rather than HR on the the graph currently used to display cdA. At the moment when I review rides I tend to review the cdA section by section afterwards, and it's not ...

That makes sense, I could have done that whilst reconfiguring the bars. Thanks for the useful advice!

Hi John,

I've extracted the profile from the 55km ride and copied it back in to profiles 3 and 4 on the Aeropod, hopefully that will fix the windscaling.

If you could advise on the query on when to use the button on out and back tests (a couple of post above) that would help lots!

Jules

Your calibration shifted radically in the 3rd ride. Wind scaling is too high; this causes incorrect high watts, which pushes down CdA. The profile in your 6KM ride is labeled "Argon 18". The profile in your 55KM file has a generic name. Do you have two profiles in your device with the sam...

I may be over-thinking the instructions for out and back tests incorrectly, specifically the line "If you’re doing out-and-back loop testing, click the lap button at the end of the test. Your test result will be displayed for 30 seconds. Turn around and ride back to your starting point. Click t...

Thanks John. With regard to point 3 I did not recalibrate. I stopped and changed the bike setup. Is there any method you would recommend for doing CdA testing on a single stretch of road? The 13km ride was an attempt to do this. I pressed the lap button at the start rode the stretch, pressed the but...

Hi John, it's a Rotor InPower.
Thanks, Jules

I must be doing some thing wrong. I tried again on the circuit this afternoon after resettting the device (12 second press on the button), but results were similar to this morning. My displayed CdA dropped until it was steady but improbable at about 0.13. The speeds in the ibr file look fine, but th...

I thought I'd share this on the forum. Rather than using the clamp on mount for my Aeropod, I've fitted a quick release plate. I filed the plate to fit the curvature of the base bars and epoxied it in to place. This means I can mount the Aeropod with consistency from one time to another

Apologies in advance for this rambling post! I live in a rural area, where road surfaces are highly variable, often potholed. It's really difficult to find a consistently surfaced road without heavy traffic and where you don't need to brake. If I want to ride a circuit, I have to brake during the la...

Apologies for the slow reply. I followed your advice and soon concluded that the sensor is defective. I swapped it for another which works just fine. PS I just bought an Aeropod

iBike file attached if relevant, thanks!

I've just started using my trusty PowerPod on my TT bike, planning to do some cdA analysis. It is paired to a Rotor DFPM and a Saris speed sensor fitted to the front hub. Weirdly the reported wheel speed is well below actual, and the recorded distance is also nearly half the actual. The examples bel...
