Stryd Calibration Clarification

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Hello Dimitrios,

should this process work with STRYD v1 (HR strap version) connected as a footpod?
I tried yesterday but on the first run without auto-calibration I got speed approx 130 km/h and 25Km in about 8 minutes:

Second run with auto-calibration on did not improve:

Did I do something wrong or this hold version of STRYD is just not compatible if connected as a footpod?

Any help is appreciated,

It is compatible but I have found v1 of Stryd (the only one I own) to be short on trails. Having GPS calibration did not seem to help that so I typically only use Stryd as a power pod. On the treadmill using as a foot pod worked for me but this was a long time ago as I rarely ever use a treadmill.

@Brad_Olwin he is referring the previous version I think. The one was a chest strap. Not in the foot.

@bulkan thanks that’s correct. It is the HR strap version

Ah, I have that one too. Stryd is located near me. Their advice was not to continue using this one. The foot pod is far better. There were many issues attempting to get reproducible power on the Pioneer version. My understanding is this does not measure distance but I don’t clearly remember, that is why I thought you meant 1st foot pod version.

@brad_olwin Got it, thanks.
