compass issues

[jgerard]

I noticed the other day that my compass (mounted on top of the dash) swings about 15 degrees when I pull the yoke back due to the big "H" steel control column under the dash.

I would like to mount it back up on the windshield. Is that mount a Taylorcraft specific part?

Re: compass issues

Yes, it is, but the cast magnesium mount is as rare as rocking horse sh1t, so if you find one (like I did at SnF for $5) then buy it!

The correct mount is in the windscreen cluster. Photo at www.Taylorcraft.org.uk/brpx9.jpg
