    Thanks for the confidence boost but I'm not planning on going anywhere (wrong assumption on your part) other than my usual area which I know off the back of my hand, was merely playing with the topo app on the phone mate.

    Last time I used it I set a way point on the 4wd then set off...couple hours later when 'navigating' back to the vehicle the app was trying to send me 50deg in the wrong direction, I was looking at the vehicle 800m away thinking wtf. Just trying to work out if it's the settings in the app or whatever.
