Default AvMap EK IV groundspeed slow?
I have been messing around with my AvMap EK IV in the car and have noticed the GS is about 5 mph slower than my speedometer and my garmin auto GPS... The garmin and speedometer match. any ideas as to why the avmap seems to be incorrect?

Knots instead of mph? Hills?
