Error on outbound heading

The outbound heading calculation is simply course plus drift and does not take into consideration the two turns
Typically the outbound drift is 2.5 or 3x inbound

Developer Response ,

Hi Neil,
Version 2.0, uses an exact solution to the "Generalized Holding Pattern Problem". The outbound heading and time that is displayed on the APP, account for the drift in both the straight outbound leg and the two turning legs, in order to allow you to roll out on the centerline of the inbound course with the required inbound time or distance to the fix.
The ratio of the outbound WCA to the inbound WCA, which you indicate is between 2.5 and 3 is not correct. The exact solution shows that the ratio is 3 in the weak wind approximation, which is valid when the wind speed ratio (windspeed/TAS) is less than 0.1.
