Heart Rate and Foot pod dropping

Former Member

Arrgh. I recently bought a Vivoactive 3, and overall I've been very happy with it. I previously had a Forerunner 235. I'm extremely frustrated however, because in my runs, I find that my heart rate "drops" for a few seconds every 10-15 minutes or so. This seems to correspond with the foot pod completely disconnecting, and today with the elevation reading as completely flat as well. I'm unable to correlate any specific motion or anything with the drops...it seems completely random. If I'm not wearing my footpad, I'm not even aware it's happening until I look at the data after my run. With the footpod, it vibrates to tell me it's connected seemingly a few seconds after it drops. Anyone else? Any fixes?
