I've tried a few compass in my rv-4 with very little luck. what do most of you do? apparently panel mounts don't work well. what kind and where to mount them?
thanks

Isn't a magnetic compass (that doesn't require power to operate) on the minimum equipment list?

Different rules in Canada and US. This gets brought up all the time - there are essentially NO required instruments in the US for an experimental operated under DVFR.
Also, a magnetic direction indicator built into your most EFIS (all?) displays is a legal replacement for a whiskey compass.
I have a panel mount. I have mine dialed in near perfect and I have mine packed with instruments. I had to selectively wrap some the surrounding instruments in nickel foil. Works perfect. I was nearly 90 degrees off.
