Hey I still have a problem with this formula
Which is from here: http://pingless.co.il/roulette.pdf#page=3
(1) I don't know from where in the wheel I should put the x-axis (zero angle) and (2) I don't know to define the θ(0) where the ball starts the orbit, please help me.

This equation for the ball position of the roulette game taken from here: http://pingless.co.il/images/APCCAS08.pdf#page=3
This is my result:
Rrim = 14
ballPosition = (30/180)*3.14
ballVelocity = 88/Rrim (Convert inch/sec to rad/sec)...
Hey I think the acceleration is wrong because -30 inch/sec should stop the ball at speed 90 inch/ sec in 3 seconds do you agree? So the actual acceleration should be -5-10 inch / sec
Hey thank you, but I'm not happy from the results, Trim should be 18 as you can count from this movie
Because Trim is the time the ball is falling from the rim it completes about 11 circles and it takes 18 seconds and the formula says it takes only 4.7 seconds
What else could be wrong here
Hey thank you for your note,
this is my calculations after the radians / sec change:
Rrim = 14
TrimCoefficient = -1/(-30/Rrim)
print("TrimCoeff: "+str(TrimCoefficient))
ballVelocity = 88/Rrim
print("ballVelocity: "+str(ballVelocity))
# (65 - 88) / (1.36 - 1)
Gravity =...
And also if someone can help me to solve why the units don't fit
If you substitute all the units you get -S^2/I*(I/S + 1/S) = S+S/I
And it should be seconds only why you get +S/I
The roulette prediction algorithm is described here: http://pingless.co.il/roulette.pdf
And I have a problem with the formula attached
Where teta θ is position, velocity and acceleration of the ball. g is garvity force. r is the ball radius from center of the roulette. a is stator incline...
