G'day Dynon,
I am busy doing some testing in my RV which has the Dynon Skyview system. I love the user data log files for post flight analysis. Some testing I did recently was takeoff and landing and GPS accuracy (static & dynamic). I've used a DGPS as the truth source. I've been experiencing a little trouble merging the two data sets. Primarily I think it is an issue of definitions rather than accuracy. To help me understand the system a little better I have a few questions.
1. How many leap seconds do you add to GPS time to convert it to UTC?
2. Why is the 'system time' 1 second advanced from the 'GPS Time & Date'?
3. Is the top bar time displayed on the screen the same as the 'system time'?
4. Is the 'GPS Altitude' height above the WGS-84 Ellipsoid or is it corrected based on lat/long to represent height above the MSL Geoid?
Thanks for a super system.
Cheers
Nigel
