I am familiar with the rest of the math. All I want is the value that comes from the raised Cg. Because it is variable for each added degree of height, it can't be figured with simple math.
It is the same equation to the speed differential of a U joint. As the angle gets higher, the speed of the driven side of the joint speeds up and slows down in relation to the drive side. That is why simple U joints are always at 90 degrees to each other. The drive shaft itself speeds up and slows down at high angles, but the joints being 90 degrees apart cancel each other, so the output joint ends up as a perfect steady speed match to the input end.
