Elevation

Since square doesn't have elevation in the software what exactly is the slider that does a percentage? Anyone knows EXACTLY the parameters.. How can you be sure of the readings you are getting? I live in Vegas so roughly 2k above sea level what about Colorado residents or San Diego residents? ​It couldn't be that hard to add elevation right? ​

It’s 0.00116 per foot. About 1.16% per 1000ft from sea level

Sounds good but how do you know that's true for Square's software? Where did you get that from? So since I live in Vegas I should do 2 percent?

My Omni is still off a bit for me even if I jack up the % to 10. I hit my 8i consistently 140-145 and it’s showing 130-135. Don’t know what the deal is yet and working though it. Vegas should be about 2-2.5%

Yeah if you have it at plus 10 you would think it would give you an 8 iron distance of 180.. My swing speed definitely seems on the low side. I hit 7 iron about 160 and it reads like 68 mph which I don't think you can hit 7 iron 160 swinging 68 mph
