Has anyone used the magnetometer from Dynon and did you make your own mount? I could order the RANS Garmin mount and see if it works but wondered if anyone else did this?
Yes, the magnatometer needs to sit horizontally level in flight attitude hence the design of the Rans mount. See the Dynon downloads and installation guides. I also use aluminium anchor nuts and stainless steel hardware
Hi Foxdawg, I am assuming you did the skyview Dynon avionics pkg? Would love to talk with you and see your photos if possible. I was told that if I mount the ADAHARS in the tail, I don't need the magnetometer. I know I'd have to run my pitot tube and static port tube back to it and maybe just move the static ports. Anyway, my email is cphillips@womenfly.com and phone is 410-310-6088. THKS!
Thank you. Does the mount for a magnetometer have to be designed to sit at a certain angle because I noticed it slopes upward toward the front? Would be really easy to make of it weren't for that.
Thanks a lot!

Yes, easily
modified the Rans mount to take the Dynon unit
