Default Dynon magnetometer questions RV7
Installing a Skyview beside a D-180. To prevent thread drift, I am fully aware of the limitations of this setup. Does anyone know if the 180 remote mag can coexist with the Skyview remote magnetometer? Would like to mount them side by side in the tailcone just in front of vert stab. D-180 has been playing perfectly with mag in that position. Next, I can?t find the dimensions of the skyview remote magnetometer. Anyone have those handy? I have researched the install manual with no luck.

Also thinking of modifying top of glovebox to make mount for adahrs. Anyone else done that?

Thanks

The remote mag can coexist with the D180 mag. Your setup actually is nice for redundancy and no interdependency. You will have to pick which one drives the servos, but the Skyview wins that choice easy.

IIRC, The magnetometer is the same size as the adahrs.
