Dear Josh

Thank you for contacting Humminbird. We appreciate your interest in our products.

We are aware of this thing "donut" if you are moving very slow drifting the gps can not tell your direction of travel so it turns your boat to a red donut. It is something our Engineers are ware of
however i can promise when there will be software fix for this at this time.
All anyone has to do is look at Chaunc post. It says it all.

I learned a long time ago not to go to someones else's camp and pee in their bean pot. Besides I get a little aggressive sometimes and wouldn't last long. I had a fine football coach and a fine drill instructor. They taught me well. ha

If someone is interested in my limited knowledge or have questions, they can contact me. I will give an honest opinion.

For the hobbyist, I have used the Parallax GPS receiver module and digital compass in some robots and it works reasonably well. I have a collection of Pic controllers. Some members here have probably seen Clyde. He worked kinda like the Ipilot. ha
