Hi Everyone, Does anyone have a list of recommended NMEA sentences that should be sent to XCSoar from an "intelligent" vario? The LX series of instruments can be customized as to what data is sent out to the serial port. The XCsoar manual recomends GPRMC and GPGGA which is what I have currently enabled, would enabling any of the other sentences be of benefit to XCSoar? The available sentences are:
GPGGA GPRMC GPRMB GPGLL GPR00 GPWPL GPLX1 (proprietary LX sentence?) GPBWC LXWP_ (data formatted specifically for Winpilot) The reason I am asking is that flying in wave the Zig-Zag wind calculation was not working as expected. I've tested with both v5.2.4 and v6a. V6a seems better than 5.2.4 unfortunately flying in wave at low ground speeds (TAS70kts GS5kts) V6a would show a false landing (possible regression to a problem seen in v4.5?). So I am wondering if enabling some of the other NMEA sentences could improve both the Zig-Zag calculation and the false landing issue.
