Space requirements

FlightScope's X3C product page does not publish consumer-style room minimums; like its other behind-ball radar units it needs several feet behind the ball plus indoor ball-flight distance — confirm with FlightScope for commercial installs.

  • Width: 10 ft workable offset, 14 ft for a centered both-handed bay (industry guidance — see model).

What it measures

Ball data (12): ball speed, carry distance, total distance, launch angle, launch direction, spin rate, spin axis, apex height, flight time, curve, lateral landing, descent angle

Club data (12): club speed, smash factor, angle of attack, club path, face to path, face to target, dynamic loft, spin loft, vertical/horizontal swing plane, low point, club speed and acceleration profiles, face impact location

Measured vs. calculated: Full-tracking 3D Doppler radar synchronized with image processing — tracks the ball from impact to landing outdoors (measured full flight); indoors it measures launch conditions and partial flight, calculating the remainder. 50+ data parameters included, no software unlock fees.

Accuracy: Marketed as 'the world's first carbon fiber tracking radar,' FlightScope's tour-level flagship positioned against Trackman 4 and GCQuad (FlightScope, The Golf Wire, Breaking Eighty review).

Notes

Pricing: FlightScope lists $14,995 with a sale price of $12,745 (June 2026); retailers (Rain or Shine, Shop Indoor Golf, Ace Indoor Golf) range $12,745-13,495. Replaces the X3.

Left-handed players: Behind-ball placement on the target line; no repositioning between right- and left-handed players.

Carbon-fiber successor to the X3 announced at the January 2025 PGA Show. Common in teaching/fitting studios. Radar-based: standard caveats about metal-structure interference apply per retailer guidance.
