I believe I have left a procedure in here somewhere to calculate the turning radius with attackdisk/sub-buddy app. No need for speed or rudder deflection, just odometer movement in the turn and the angle of the turn. And a magical mark on the time-disk representing 'degrees per radian': 57.3 seconds (on the beige scale) or 573s/ 9m33s on the white scale.
