  2. Bearing (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bearing_(navigation)

    The bearing angle value will always be less than 90 degrees. [1] For example, if Point B is located exactly southeast of Point A, the bearing from Point A to Point B is "S 45° E". [ 3 ] For example, if the bearing between Point A and Point B is S 45° E, the azimuth between Point A and Point B is 135°.

  3. Course (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_(navigation)

    Instruments used to plot a course on a nautical chart. In navigation, the course of a watercraft or aircraft is the cardinal direction in which the craft is to be steered.The course is to be distinguished from the heading, which is the direction where the watercraft's bow or the aircraft's nose is pointed.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea-Doo_GTX

    The Sea-Doo GTX is a personal watercraft (PWC) made by Bombardier Recreational Products of Canada. Part of their Sea-Doo line of watercraft, [ 1 ] the Sea-Doo GTX has been produced since 1992. [ 2 ] It is a three-person personal water craft with a 'luxury' ride combined with a series of engines.

    There are five categories of Sea-Doo models: Recreation, Tow Sports, Touring, Sport Fishing, and Performance. [14]The Sea-Doo jet-powered sport boats included a four-seater Sportster 150 with 155 hp or 215 hp, a four-seater Speedster 150 with 255 hp, and a seven-seater Speedster 200 with 310 hp, and a Speedster 230 with space for up to twelve people.

  6. Turning radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turning_radius

    Diagram of turning vehicle. On wheeled vehicles with the common type of front wheel steering (i.e. one, two or even four wheels at the front capable of steering), the vehicle's turning diameter measures the minimum space needed to turn the vehicle around while the steering is set to its maximum displacement from the central 'straight ahead' position - i.e. either extreme left or right.

  7. Steering ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_ratio

    A steering ratio of x:y means that a turn of the steering wheel x degree(s) causes the wheel(s) to turn y degree(s). In most passenger cars , the ratio is between 12:1 and 20:1. For example, if one and a half turns of the steering wheel, 540 degrees, causes the inner & outer wheel to turn 35 and 30 degrees respectively, due to Ackermann ...

  8. Heading (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heading_(navigation)

    This wind triangle shows a jet airliner's heading towards point B (HDG, in black; TAS=True Air Speed) and its course towards C (TR, track, in blue; GS=Ground Speed). The drift angle (shaded red) is due to the wind velocity (W/V, in green).

  9. Slip angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_angle

    In vehicle dynamics, slip angle [1] or sideslip angle [2] is the angle between the direction in which a wheel is pointing and the direction in which it is actually traveling (i.e., the angle between the forward velocity vector and the vector sum of wheel forward velocity and lateral velocity , as defined in the image to the right).
