Sorry for the slow response on this stuff - I've been swamped with
paperwork, we just got ADS-SR1 boards in and we're trying to get those
processed, and OT2m boards are due in today and will make things even
more hectic.
This is pretty much the expected behavior unless your GPS receiver is
configured to have a dead band for low speeds. Your 'direction' will
tend to flop all over the place. That's why there's a minimum speed for
it to take effect. Same with the wind reporting on the weather firmware
- below a certain speed the wind measurement is unreliable and chaotic
and is discarded.
