Just reading again... I currently have device setup as A: Bluetooth/CAI-302, and B: Internal GPS. I will disable the internal GPS and see if that makes a difference.

Dan, sounds like you might have the Space Shuttle polar selected.

I haven't experienced any of these issues on 6.3 with a Dell Streak. If I recall correctly in the Cambridge waypoint format the home airfield has an H in the column that specifies the waypoint type.

One interesting thing I noticed on a recent flight was that when I didn't select a waypoint, the default was to return me to "takeoff." In one case, I launched in Simulator mode and noticed this on tow. Thankfully, flying a Duo I was able to hand control over to the back seater and restart in FLY mode. It immediately recorded Takeoff. Later in the day on final glide I was loosing ground on my arrival height, but clearly was going to make it and be quite high. As my arrival went negative I realized that the default behavior was to "takeoff" which had been 1500agl or so.

I would also recommend adding an info box for GPS height and AGL Height to some screen and then double check those on your next flight to make sure they are generally in agreement with your altimeter and actual AGL height. Just in case you've got bad map data. Seems like that could exhibit the behavior that you've reported.

    Hi Dan, I've had a few of these myself, for example on one flight
    my reach area was stuck 100km behind me, other times my GPS
    position would jump many KM away even though I was on the ground.
     I was using XCSoar on Android connected to Internal GPS, CAI302
    and Powerflarm via IOIO.  Once I disabled the internal GPS all
    these disappeared.

        I'm using 6.4_beta but these anomalies have been with me from
        the beginning.

        I do not see the reach outline until getting above about
        13,000 ft MSL
        (7,000 ft AGL).

        I get the message "Final glide through terrain" periodically,
        even when
        directly over the airport at 10,000 ft AGL.

        How do I select my home field without searching through all
        the airports?

        Any help would be appreciated.

        Dan
