      I did couple of runs lately with my new S7.

      I had the GPS on good rather then best and the reading were totally off.

      Anyone experienced this with S7 and is there a way to ensure best accuracy.

      Accuracy set to best did an ok job but nowhere near my AW S6 tracking.

      Any suggestion would be appreciated.

      Thanks

        @optics-field-test My S7 works well on Good and Best modes, I only had problems when I used an extra tracking app running it together with the SWA on the S7 and not all the times, also on some special occasions like these. Obviously the track is not perfect aligned with the map, but for me it’s on the logic margin.

          @flypg thanks for your input, I am going to put it down to bad weather this time 😜

          It was very cloudy day so perhaps, I should get better reading on clearer days.

            @optics-field-test You’re welcome!
            It’s too different the track vs map?
            You use it into a dense city?
            Can you upload a small screen capture of the track?
            I not noted significant differences, even under a big storms 😌

              @flypg I actually run in the open with no obstruction whatsoever.

                Hello @optics-field-test, I asked you about the screen captures to check this, here you can see one of my test on the same route with GPS BEST and GOOD.

                  @flypg sorry just seen your message, I don’t think I can upload an image form my phone here. My S7 is cutting corners like crazy, its going in to houses about 10 meters away from my actual path!
