R/C Assist is a tool for a Regatta Race Committee. It provides complete countdown timer functionality for several of the most common starting sequences used in sailboat racing.
The program allows your iPhone to start the races completely with sounds broadcast through an amplifier, or to help your race committee time start sequences and use the proper flags and sound symbols at the correct time.
When your iPhone is connected to an amplifier on the committee boat you can run a full start sequence with sounds at the push of a button. Also the correct flags and sounds will be visually cued on your phone in order that you know which flags to fly and which sounds to make at the proper time. This simplifies the starting process and avoids mistakes. Race sequences can be aborted with an AP signal at any point.
Supported start sequences include the RRS Rule 26 Five Minute sequence with horns or guns, the Inter-Collegiate Sailing Association modified Three Minute start, and the U.S. Appendix S three minute start (with optional flags). Start options include P, I, and Z preparatory flags and Z+I and Black Flag penalties. 2010 William J Porter III
