GPS Testflight in gusty winds

Today I went for another short flight to see if GPS information is recorded correctly.

The wind was not very favourable, at the time I was flying it was 30km/h average with 60km/h gusts.

I flew on the lee side of the house with GPS position hold and manual support...

looks like the GPS did not always have a 3D fix - a good part of the track has height zero. The automatic height regulator did not work well also as the changes in wind probably also changed air pressure.

Flights 22nd - 25th
