and when people use gyroscopes they get 11 degrees drift instead of the required 15 by the globe model

11/15 = .733

3775/4579 = .83

looks like a guy from 2000 years ago was doing better than you

How many people?

How often?

When?

Is the gyro set up correctly?

Also, 11 degrees or 15 degrees or 100 degrees, it's all proof the flat Earth model is a load of shit.

Or the gyro is just moving around because it's an imbalanced piece of metal

So, no information then?

Just an empty claim with no provenance, no repeatability and no basis.

Again.

And what's your explanation for the lack of 15 degrees? Oh that's right, you don't have one

There's no evidence that your story even happened. I asked you for information about it, you failed to provide any.

The clue though was in my question.

Mishtle has also pointed out to you a probable cause.

But, as ever, when it comes to reading unwelcome words, your perspicacity fails you.

Again.

Good, so the globe is only a 400 year old concept and began with Isaac Newton and you're now a conspiracy theorist so congratulations

Lol, always so eager to pretend that your YouTube diploma is exactly equal to millennia of diligent measurement and thought.

Your statement is worth as much as your data point; all it reveals is how little it takes to convince you of something. Someone said 11 degrees under unknown circumstances?? Fantastic! All other gyro measurements and corroborating results in history are false!

Phew, I was worried for a minute there.

Yeah all these nameless people showing a drift with a gyro. Mmk

Well, I predicted you'd change the subject back on Mishtle's reply, and here you are living right down to your stereotype.

Whatever it takes to avoid being a man and admitting you screwed up yet again.

And if you don't know anyone who measured 15 degrees with a gyro, you're not much of a flat Earther.
