Re: GPS NIghtmares Made Worse?

Mine is of a similar state, and it wasn't that it cheaper out, but that the system must accept inputs of wheel rotations, inertial sensors and steering angle etc etc to supplement GPS. At the time of manufacture (2006) there wasn't an alternative other than to design it yourself. I'm not sure even today that there's a commercial system that accepts and balances alternative positional information.
