Having trouble with my EFIS not showing exact level after completing a turn, ( previous thread " GRT HXr horizon tilted" )
I understand that the EFIS does not have a normal gyro but rather rate gyros that calculate level from various sensors including the magnetometer.
Therefore, I assume errors build up that causes the horizon to show a tilt after leveling out, question, how long does it take for the system to recalculate and display the correct horizon ?
This usually shows up after a shallow turn of 90 degrees or more and is enough to cause concern in IFR. The backup Dynon D10A doesn't seem to show this problem even though it is less sophisticated.
I did a sharp steep turn approx 180 degrees today and the tilt was considerable and took quite some time to resolve itself, and yet a steep turn the other way immediately afterwards did not show as much of a tilt.
I have spent a week moving the magnetometer to three different locations, the last in the wing tip, it is aligned to 0.1 degrees in pitch and roll and has passed the calibration.
Numerous calls to the manufacturer, many suggestions but problem still there.
Run out of ideas
