SP-6 tilt compensation

Post by love2loop »

From the MGL Avionics SP-6 Magnetometer SP-7 AHRS installation manual page 2 states: "Alternatively, if you have a SP-7 AHRS connected to the same Airtalk bus as the SP-6, the SP-6 will use the attitude data from the SP-7 to calculate the heading. If your SP-6 is set to gyro mode and horizon data is being received, your SP-6 will use the gyro derived horizon rather than the built in accelerometers for tilt compensation. In this case, heading is correct even during turns." Question: Because the Lite version has the built in AHRS, will the built in AHRS perform the same function for compensation as the separate SP-7 unit?
