AA Butterfly versus CNv LCD wind calculation
I thought accurate straight line glide computer wind accuracy required a fixed compass (aka LXNAv) for the best not thermaling wind detection sensitivity. My S10 is going to have a compass module shortly. But I really can't imagine a need that that much wind accuracy. The wind where you are now isn't the problem. It's accurate anticipation of what the wind is 1, 5 10 and 20 miles ahead, just like sailing, but much less critical.
Am I right or wrong on the compass module?
I believe the butterfly an fixed compass built in, and this is the reason that it is more energetic on updates? Correct?
