6030 GPS track

Post by olin »

I used to have a 6015 and was able to set the poll rate to get smooth circles on my thermals. I have tried to do that on my 6030, and it does not seem to be working. The setting says you need an SD card to poll at higher frequencies, which I do have in there, but I am still seeing angular triangles on my thermal spirals. Anybody have any insight?

You need to set the recording interval to 2 sec in the flight memory settings. That will give you nice smooth tracks but only a 9hr max flight time.

Yep, that helps. There's a 1 second setting as well, but that doesn't seem to work (it says it needs an SD card inserted even though I have one in there).
