Sorry, you’re right, I didn’t give you the wind information.

 

On Saturday (when I flight with 6.8.7 version) XCSoar gave 12 Km/h of wind in 
front, on Sunday (when I flight with 6.7.9 version) XCSoar gave from 14 to 16 
km/h.

 

And I think the information about wind was good, because I came back to home.

 

So from any direction I think this wind speed doesn’t justify a similar 
correction track.

The reason for the discrepancies is probably the wind. With strong enough cross 
wind the heading and bearing are not the same.

Don't know if this is related, but yesterday I noticed there was a consistent 8 
to 10 degree difference in the Bearing and the track between XCSoar and my 
Cambridge GPS-Nav.

I am running XCSoar 6.8.6 on a Samsung SM-J320V.

Displaying both traces on SeeU showed no difference in position, some 
difference in altitude at the higher altitudes (200 ft difference at 5000').

This was the first time I had the phone mounted where I could see it throughout 
the flight, so I cannot comment on earlier flights.

Regards,

Mike

For information, today I flight with the 6.7.9 XCSoar Version, and I had no 
problems. Same android device, Huawei Y6II Pro with android 6.0. And I checked 
with accuracy, for 40 km from my base to it.

Oggetto: Problem with right track on XCSoar

 

Yesterday I had the following problem: I’m going to my base right in front of 
me, but the direction suggested from XCSoar was 30 degree to left. I know my 
base, so it’s not a problem, but If I was in cross country …

 

I use XCSoar from many years, and this is first time that I have this problem.

 

My configuration:

Android device: Huawei Y6II Pro updated, with no sim and no app installed

XCSoar 6.8.6

 

It’s the second time I fly with android device. The waypoint file is the same I 
used for many flyghts with IPAQ 3950 with GPS signal from Flarm XCSoar version 
6.7.9 (but PPC2000 is no more supported, so I had to change platform).

 

Today I’ll try to load a precedent version of XCSoar for Android to verify.

 

Regards

Fabrizio
