What else needs to be done to report...a PM?

I’m not affiliated with Inmotion, and I don’t know what their preferred feedback channel is. But there is info@imscv.com‎WhatsApp, Telegram, and PM to the authors in the Inmotion announcement section of the forum.

For example all Gotways returns real speed and this is what riders expect from the manufacture

I think I'm noticing a difference in the speeds of my GotWay MCM5 v2

About 5-10% difference of the average riding speeds in my EUC world logs. Am I looking at the wrong numbers?

It's quite common that speeds reported by the wheel are higher that actual speed. This is why I added speed/distance correction to EUC World long time ago.

Didn't know that. Any idea what the correction should be for MCM5?

The exact % difference probably depends on your weight and tire pressure (since those change the effective radius of your tire rolling on the ground, so they change the RPM->speed conversion factor).

You could find a route that is mostly straight, and compare GPS speed to your in-app speed to get an idea of what correction is needed.

Companies that under report and over deliver turn out to make a legendary name for themselves. Companies that are known to lie shoot themselves I'm thr foot, when they come out with the new hot thing no one believes them.
