Default Hitec Aurora Telemetry speed/altitude reading bug.

Hitec has discovered that when using the new telemetry system with the GPS and selected to “imperial” which displays the speed in MPH and altitude in Feet that we get an error where the value will reset to zero if flying above 620’ or traveling faster than 64 MPH. However, if using the “metric” setting for KPH and Meters, everything works properly. Furthermore, if using the HPP-22 to connect to a PC the software tracks the speed and altitude as it should if the imperial measurements are selected.

Hitec should have this anomaly resolved with a firmware update shortly. We apologize for the inconvenience.
