Default GPS instead of turn and bank

How are you going to determine bank with a GPS?



The Garmin handhelds show a mini panel complete with a turn
corrdinator. The GPS knows your rate of turn. However, on the 296
there is enough delay that it isn't really simple to fly under the
hood on.


I thought I heard that the new 296's had the better processor of the
396/496. Did that happen or not?
