Your statements that the GPS lags dangerously are inaccurate (at least
wrt to the Garmin 295). The HSI updates quick enough to show heading
changes of a few degrees as long as the bank angle is kept under a
reasonable amount, say 10 degrees. Easy to do in smooth or light
turbulence.

The lag is time, not heading. How long does it take a heading change
to register? I've heard that it's at least a second on the 196, and
sometimes two seconds or more on the 295, but I don't own either.


All the best,
