Hi, Ramy,

I did as you suggested - created a new XCSoarData directory and populated it a little at a time. All seems to be working correctly now! Now I need to go back and retrieve files one by one to restore my configuration the way I want it while keeping it working correctly.

Thanks,
Dan

Dan, I have the same setup as yours, Dell Streak 5, K6BT/CAI 302 and don't see the issue you have. It seems like you are having the same issue since way back then, and no one else seem to have it, so I suspect something in your configuration is causing it. Sounds like a mismatch between your altitude and the terrain altitude or waypoint file. Are they all in feet? Which waypoint file and terrain file are you using? Can you recreate the issue in sim mode by changing the altitude? I suggest trying the following: Remove your config file (save it somewhere else) so XCSoar will start with a new default config file, then start configuring it step by step to see what causing the issue. If this still does not help, you can send me your config file and I can try it out on my device assuming you can recreate the issue in sim mode.

Just reading again... I currently have device setup as A: Bluetooth/CAI-302, and B: Internal GPS. I will disable the
    internal GPS and see if that makes a difference.

    Dan, sounds like you might have the Space Shuttle polar selected.

    I haven't experienced any of these issues on 6.3 with a Dell
    Streak.  If I recall correctly in the Cambridge waypoint format
    the home airfield has an H in the column that specifies the
    waypoint type.

    One interesting thing I noticed on a recent flight was that when
    I didn't select a waypoint, the default was to return me to
    "takeoff."  In one case, I launched in Simulator mode and noticed
    this on tow.   Thankfully, flying a Duo I was able to hand
    control over to the back seater and restart in FLY mode.  It
    immediately recorded Takeoff.   Later in the day on final glide I
    was loosing ground on my arrival height, but clearly was going to
    make it and be quite high.  As my arrival went negative I
    realized that the default behavior was to "takeoff" which had
    been 1500agl or so.

    I would also recommend adding an info box for GPS height and AGL
    Height to some screen and then double check those on your next
    flight to make sure they are generally in agreement with your
    altimeter and actual AGL height.  Just in case you've got bad map
    data.  Seems like that could exhibit the behavior that you've
    reported.

        Hi Dan, I've had a few of these myself, for example on one
        flight my reach area was stuck 100km behind me, other times
        my GPS position would jump many KM away even though I was on
        the ground.  I was using XCSoar on Android connected to
        Internal GPS, CAI302 and Powerflarm via IOIO.  Once I
        disabled the internal GPS all these disappeared.

            I'm using 6.4_beta but these anomalies have been with me
            from the beginning.

            I do not see the reach outline until getting above about
            13,000 ft MSL
            (7,000 ft AGL).

            I get the message "Final glide through terrain"
            periodically, even when
            directly over the airport at 10,000 ft AGL.

            How do I select my home field without searching through
            all the airports?

            Any help would be appreciated.
