No flux gate for Aspen PFD?

[KyleKJ90]

I've been looking for the answer to this question for a while now but what's the input for the HSI on the Aspen PFD? I've worked on other aircraft which have flux gates but I can't find any information about there even being one on Aspen's website, in the manual or around the internet. Hoping you can help with the answer so I might have that information for my examiner when I go to take my instrument check ride. Thanks!

Nope, just the GPS antenna as far as I know.  (I haven't installed one yet to my plane)

Aspen has what is called a RSM or remote sensor module that mounts on the top of the plane. It looks like a GPS antenna but has much more. In it is a magnetometer (modern electronic version of the flux gate), GPS antenna and a temp. probe. You can mount them on the bottom if you have to but lose the vfr GPS within the Aspen, not a good idea.

I answered your question on the other thread but here it is.

This isn't TSO'd but should do the trick and doesn't need a logbook entry.
