Default TE compensation and vario response times

Hello Pilots,

Seeing the question about CAI 302 tones prompts an issue I have with my 302. I have a relatively new V2C. It has a 302 and an LX 16 electronic vario for back up. I am running both off the TE probe in the fin. I had the 302 response times for both audio and pointer set relatively fast as I had done with my previous system and running 0% electronic compensation. The 302 is bonkers in any turbulence or transitions. I have tried adding some electronic compensation w/o improvement. In order to tame it I had to slow both audio and pointer response times down further than I would like.

So the questions:
1) TE off the fin probe or go with static and electronic compensation
2) Operate with TE off the probe and some added electronic compensation
3) If running off static should I run with more than 100% electronic compensation
4) Optimum response time settings
5) Is there a solution that provide a well compensated 302 that is fast AND reasonably stable

Thanks for the insights.

Bob Caldwell
