RCA1510 Digital Heading Indicator

[Brendan Ritson]

Has anyone used the RC Allen RCA1510 Digital Heading Indicator?

The instrument is TSO'd and certified for primary direction indication.

I am interested to know whether an instrument like this with an internal magnetometer is accurate given its close proximity to other avionics.

It utilizes gps as well.

Part of the install is to calibrate the indicator with the existing avionics installed. If on the off chance you have operational interference there are steps to correct that as well.
