That's the one I tried unsuccessfully last year.

Has that been improved?

I remember asking about it 2-3 years back and was told then by one of
the local UK agents that it toppled after a few circles. His firm was
selling the rival PCFlightSystems Egyro2 which possibly affected his
advice a little. However, he did say that the Egyro2 had the same
problem until they nagged PCFlightSystems into improving it to the point
that it could take continuous circling.

I like the AHRS-1 and -2 display better (monochrome, not colour) so I'm
curious to know if there's been any upgrades.

I have no idea if any work has been done in the last year. My last
step was to return the unit to the US dealer, which I was able to do
in person since the shop is a 20 minute drive from where I work, and I
watched him upload the latest and greatest software, but it made no
difference in the end.

Thanks. Looks like the TruTrak T&S is the way to go. Besides, its a
one-box solution and I could have fun and games working out where to put
the AHRS sensor box in my Libelle.
