I'd be interested to understand how the accuracy displayed on SkyDemon can differ from the GPS source?
‌Flying with a WIFI only iPad mini and a Bad Elf Pro Plus the Bad Elf track shows an accurate track, whilst the SkyDemon log is less accurate. The tracks do appear to converge after take off?
‌
‌EG Bad Elf shows tracking runway; SD shows track outside the airfield.

Could it be anything to do with the geodesic datum being different between the Bad Elf and the maps used in SD?
