I am also sending this the list.

I assume you mean R2.15.0

Are you sure that x (tran) = y[1:7]?

Try a clean environment.
I now did this:
nls.dat <- data.frame(x=y[1:7], y=y[2:8]/y[1:7])
nls(y ~ R * (1 - (x/K)^2), data = nls.dat, start = list(R = 0.3, K=1))
and got this answer

nls(y ~ R * (1 - (x/K)^2), data = nls.dat, start = list(R = 0.3, K=1))

model: y ~ R * (1 - (x/K)^2)

I also did this (just in case; see above)
nls.dat <- data.frame(x=x[1:7], y=y[2:8]/y[1:7])
nls(y ~ R * (1 - (x/K)^2), data = nls.dat, start = list(R = 0.3, K=1))
and got this
