Consider putting the ball near to the compass, that way the 'pilot's
own navigation instrument' can cover the compass which becomes
redundant once the instrument is in place. And if anything fails,
just swivel the 'instrument' away to see the compass!

This requires the compass to be mounted in a useful place . . but
this should be easy to arrange ;-)

Cheers,

Jim Kelly.
