Compass lag
#1
On the bench if I rotate the pi 90 degrees I can count to 6 before the compass values in signal k stabilize at the new heading. There are many intermediate values displayed in the meantime.

I see two magnetic heading values, including a distinct one for pypilot but they update at the same pace. This is version 1.0.0. in 0.17.0 it was even slower, about 10 seconds on a pi 3.

This may be a dampering feature, I don't know. But racing, the tactician is looking for wind shifts and needs more immediate feedback.

Changing the update frequency setting makes no difference.

Is my observation consistent with others', and is there potential remedy?

I have the recommended IMU for pypilot.

It seems almost like it is spooling out every value it read during the movement.
