Overview
The most obvious and primary advantage of the PAI-700 vertical card magnetic compass over fluid damped compasses is the easy-to-steer by presentation! At a glance the Aero designed lubber line on the lens enables one to view the entire 360 degrees dial in its proper relation to flight.
Features & Benefits
The PAI-700 vertical card compass does satisfy the FAA requirement that each aircraft must have a magnetic compass
The PAI-700 is magnet driven thus it is subject to lead and lag, however, these tendencies are greatly reduced due to the absence of pendulosity
It is inherently stable due to the use of eddy current damping which is a natural phenomenon built into the basic design
The PAI-700 vertical card compass comes with the customer's choice of lighting - 28 Volts, 14 Volts or 5 Volts
The standard light assembly has two pin lamps providing normal clear light
