    Drift problem with BG H5000 and Expedition

    Hi,
    I have a H5000 with IMU and Precision 9 compass. I have turned off Leeway in Expedition and BG, by setting the index to zero. Still I get a Drift of 0.6 knots. During a 10 min test I managed to calibrate dBspSog to 0.04 and dHdgCog to 0.1 and still getting a drift of 0.6 knots.
    Any suggestions?

    Presumably the set & drift are coming from the H5000.

    Leeway estimates should just improve the current calculation.
