According to the road angel im about 5-6 mph out. 36 mph reads as 30 on the road angel. Having noticed vehicles around me are taking speed cameras faster without getting flashed the road angel must be right.

How do I calibrate the speedo?

Be carefull with GPS speedo readouts when climbing or decending a hill as most street level gps system do not take onto account altitude therfore you could well be moving faster than the gps readout
