I am set for Imperial and everything shows MPH on my device and in my flight logs but my speeds seem way too high. In P-mode with barely any tailwind, I easily get 45 MPH and today with only a 9MPH tailwind, I broke 70 MPH pretty much the whole flight over multiple batteries. This can't be right, right?

I don't think so they sound like kph speed, are you seeing this live or on playback, because there is another thread here somewhere, where although on live screen it was showing mph, but on playback it was actually kph.

It's a known problem. You are actually seeing the speeds in Kph. Hopefully they will fix it in FW upgrade soon.  So telemetry and logs are incorrect.

I had read a post somewhere about it but I did not realize the issue affected live view in the GO app as well as when you replay the logs. This explains why it appeared I was traveling at 43 MPH during my first real test flight. Thanks for the info.
