Devices: Invalid IGC data when GPS lost (FLARM)

Reported by: scottp@… Owned by: max
Priority: high Milestone: XCSoar 6.0.x
Component: Devices Version: 5.2.2
Keywords: Cc:

Description (last modified by Turbo) (diff)

Some times the GPS signal is lost from the FLARM. Sometimes once a flight. Each time that happens,
XCSoar records an entry at 0 feet. This causes anything reviewing the file to think there was a takeoff and
landing at that point.

The problem is almost definitely with FLARM transmitting entries at zero before getting the new data.

What I am hoping is that XCSoar will compensate for this. My recent flight it has a few seconds going from
over 20,000 feet down to zero and back.
