Did you 'Save' the recording?
Have you looked at the GPX and FIT recordings yet to compare?
We just did, and do not like what we are seeing. The GPX track has multiple issues, while the FIT file appears to be correct.
FIT vs GPX:

Indeed, i see the same now when i compare the activity and the track. (i almost never use the activity).
My observation came from a saved track, not from the current track (i will have to check this).

Hi.
For expeditoin mode, the battery drainage seems to be corrected.
But it still often happens that after thu unit resumes to normal operation after expedition mode it uses only GPS, but not Galileo nor Glonass if one of those were enabled before going into expedition mode.

Meanwhile - with the latest firmware...
Does the expedition mode work without any bug?
I stopped using it a few versions before and stopped testing

9.90 works well.
10.20 i haven't tried, it had other bugs so I downgraded to 9.90 after a short time.
