OK, lost here already, where is the Estimate Speed button, is it the third one on the bottom of the Attack Data Tool? if so what do I do with the timer button at the top left?

On the dial at the upper right hand corner of the screen that lets you input range, AOB, or speed. Select speed. The estimate speed button is at the upper left corner of the dial.
If you've taken at least two range/bearing measurements, pressing this button will cause the crew to give you an estimate in the little text window they talk to you in. Something like:
"WO: Estimated speed, 9 knots, estimated course, 210 degrees"
All this stuff is much easier to do when you detect a target from far away and have lots of time to track it as it approaches. In the game, if you don't start tracking a target until its really close, you will have to do more estimation of values instead of calculation.
