Guys,
ya'll are getting to "clinical" figuring out how to mount the remote compass within a .01 deg. the Dynon is a great instrument it works better than any other compass i have ever flown behind. after solving self inflicted problems ( magnetized rudder cable). if you mount the D-100 or DEK-180 parallel to the bottom of the instrument panel and the compass on a parallel surface it'll work. otherwise if you parked on a slope it would not. just make sure it's pointed in the same direction as the nose of the plane : )

I wouldn't call it clinical. I did what Dynon and SteinAir (the guys that make the wiring harnesses for Dynon and built my avionics stack) said to do. Get the remote as far away from the stuff that could cause problems as I could and still be able to get to it. They included LOTS of cable (I ran out of airplane before I ran out of cable) so I did just that. Doing that put it back in the rear of the fuselage where there is a 3 degree difference.
