Best way to pick up center of multiple random flats for runout?

Hello, I would like to know the best way to measure multiple parallel flats as a circle in order to get the runout from this to an outer diameter. The parallel lines rotate randomly per part around the center of the circle, so i cant just pick up each line and then recall into a circle. I am thinking of doing a slow circle path, and then using maximum inscribed, but am worried about how the filters would adjust the sizes, and i don't know how accurate it would be without any filters enabled. See attached photo for a easier understanding of my question. Thank you!

I would try to scan around with a couple of Curves, and use that in an Alignment from Several Curves; and then reference that with a 6 point diameter. 

Without Curve, I would scan the flats and try to use a Geometry Best Fit Alignment

Hallo Luke,

gehe bei deiner Ebene auf Strategie, und dann siehst du oben in der Menüleiste ein Kreissymbol mit drei Punkten . Das öffnest du mit einem Doppelklick.

Da drin kannst du dann ganz unten deine Kreismittelpunkt einstellen.

Go to Features > Circle
Enter in XYZ Nominal Values where you want it to be measured. (Assuming X=0.0 Y=0.0 Z=0.100?)
Nominal Diameter will be the 2x Radius distance to one of the flats.
Create a strategy with 6 single points starting at 30°

I would avoid curves - mostly due unkown position and rotation - would falsely report crash.

I would try to measure a circle with 6 points to obtain center - if it's not a problem to get close enough center, then use cirle, go to bigger probe radius, relatively fast scan speed hight density of points.
