Speculative decoding batches multiple completions on all possible outcomes (0/1/2 draft tokens accepted) and sees if big model deviates at any point -- thus verifying each token. So there's no difference in output.

Try 26B first. 31B seems to have very heavy KV cache (maybe bugged in llama.cpp at the moment; 16K takes up 4.9GB). edit: 31B cache is not bugged, there's static SWA cost of 3.6GB.. so IQ4_XS at 15.2GB seems like reasonable pair, but e

If controller isn't being rotated in the moment, then camera should be stationary regardless of controller orientation, yea. I guess you've used some strange gyro to stick emulation (never heard of such thing, but sounds like it).
