Datasheet for Neo-M8N chip used in most of the pixhawk GPS receivers says that the horizontal precision is 2.5 m (GPS+GLONASS). So I can update it to this value. Is it enough?
I think 2.5 m is the "optimistic" value. Now the question is, wherher we should not simulate with more pessimistic values, to prevent any surprises in the real world.
Is this is valid? Should I change the GPS horizontal precision to 2.5m?
Ye, I still think the normal GPS random walk should be more visible.
