Unless things have changed, a compass is required. The pc12 ngx I flew had one, very frequently grossly off, but it had one.

I downloaded it, and read it. Is there something specific you think I should note?

100ll on a rag, for really clean, simple green diluted and a rag.

Great information. I will look at all wiring connections. and the magnetometer mount. The magnetometer was mounted 3 years ago, auto pilot is new as of june. Its driven by g5's.

I haven't had time to call the avionics shop yet. I was flying to MSO a few weeks ago in pretty rough air, using heading mode to stay in the valley and not have to climb over terrain. It kept kicking out of heading mode and into roll mode. It was pretty rough, I was on my way to get a pitot...
