Cycling Power Estimator

@bubuche 200-250W is very high for a descent, true. Too high for the model as it should be I think.
Can you help narrow it down, as I have not observed this myself?
Zoom in on the downhill section, and note:- % grade
- distance
- start and end elevation
- Avg power
- Avg speed
- Your total weight as configured in the settings (bike + rider + pack)
If you can zoom to just that section, overlay speed and power, that might give us a clue.

I think I’ve worked it out - it was a typo! Please try the latest build.
It meant that terminal velocity was ignored when going downhill without a sensor - resulting in those high power readings.
Let me know, as I cannot test this for a couple of weeks now. -

Ok, I’ll try in a few days

Changing a + to à - helped a lot
This is far better in descents.In a previous post, you requested the avg speed and power on a section. How? I can only get this for segments of 1/5/10 km.

@bubuche I would use Runalyze or another external platform for that.
Now I‘ve been using the latest updates for a bit, I think we‘re there.
I thought about using predicted wind from the weather app, but you end up losing accuracy as soon as buildings are involved.
I will look at using the accelerometer perhaps, but felt it was overkill when I started with this app. It might solve the grade latency issue though. I‘ll play around with it at some point. -
Hello,
Does this app work on Suunto 9 baro?
I tried but I only get a black screen and back to the main menu after a while. -
@phck9b It works in the simulator, but I don’t have a S9 Baro device to test. It may be crashing due to low memory, I refactored it once to make it fit in the Vertical 1’s runtime, so that’s likely.
If you have VS Code, maybe you can share the watch’s log file. -
@phck9b I had a freeze on 9PP at the first time I tried to enable it with live-tracking in parallel. After restarting the watch both do work now. So maybe just use one app and restart the watch before.

@Ecki-D. Thank you very much! I’ll try next time

@mickywickyftw
Thank you, but I haven’t VS Code. I wiil try the solution given by Ecki d (next post).
