REFLECTOR: Dynon SkyView ADAHRS location

[Erik Franks]

Darrell,
I have had success placing the two ADAHRS on the canard as far as possible
from the trim linear actuator. I haven't noticed any deflection. From what I
understand the Dynon can deal with any static magnetic field for calibration
but dynamic ones caused by wires nearby are a bigger issue. Good luck with
the install. I love the Dynon SV so far.
