getPOSI is not giving sensible LLA

[brendan-waters]

Hi All,

I have been tinkering with XplaneConnect and have noticed some unusual behaviour with the getPOSI matlab function. I notice that if I start from a known airport (i.e. Sydney Kingsford Smith Airport (Lat: -33.930 Lon: 151.17 Alt: 0) ), getPOSI returns a completely different LLA i.e. (-109.107, -3.0158, 0). Furthermore, if the aircraft is stationary, this LLA changes quite significantly.

Has anyone had similar experience or know why this might be happening?

An example is the following code:

POSI = [lat0, lon0, alt,  0,    0,   0,  0];
sendPOSI(POSI, 0, Socket); 
POSI = getPOSI(0, Socket);
sendPOSI(POSI , 0, Socket);

where the getPOSI produces a LLA significantly different to the initial lat0, lon0, alt
