I use a Ocean Server OS5000. <a rel="nofollow" shape="rect" target="_blank" href="http://www.ocean-server.com/compass.html">http://www.ocean-server.com/compass.html</a> I designed a 1-atm anodized aluminum (6061) housing that is externally mounted to the pressure hull behind the viewport. Like Emile, I found that the steel hull affected the results by about 5-10 degrees but the unit has an "hard iron" calibration process to calibrate out the error. I plan on using the same unit for the R500. BTW, the sensor also gives the tilt, roll and temperature in addition to the heading. For my application, I have the electrical connections coming through an electrical penetrator and then connect via
an RS232 connection to my PLC. In the PLC ladder logic, I have to parse an ASCII string to extract the four measurements. </span></div><div></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2838"> </div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2740">Cliff<br clear="none"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2839"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2840"><br clear="none"></div> <div style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:12px;" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2730"> <div style="font-family:HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;font-size:16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2729"> <div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yiv3296736411yqt4196734617" id="yiv3296736411yqt62177"><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2728"> <div style="margin:5px 0px;padding:0px;border:1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204);height:0px;line-height:0;font-size:0px;" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2727"></div> <font face="Arial" size="2" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418028506279_2841"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">From:</span></b> Alan James via Personal_Submersibles <personal_submersibles@psubs.org><br clear="none"> <b><span style="font-weight:bold;">To:</span></b> Personal Submersibles General Discussion

need a magnetic compass or other device to set course. But they are
okay if you set course according to your GPS course before you dive. They
can hold the course for some hours with a movment of 2-4 deegre per hour. Okay
for a slow and small Psub. They are vaccum driven or electric. Vaccum driven
you can not use in a small submarine. (Or you need a silencer and eardrums as
in Spurdog). Electric you can use if it is a 12 or 24 V DC driven one. For
other voltage you need a special power converter. The Ebay units are sometimes
cheap - between 100-800 USD - but most of them work not proper. They are
build out of the planes for exact that reason and sold as they are and without
any waranty.. Size is around 100x100x400mm. Volume 4 Liters .. Good solution
if you buy a unit in aircraft condition with papers from a aircarft surplus
dealer with a working garanty. Make sure that they get not wet or 100%
humidity. <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
Gyros in ships are north stabilzed. The need around 40 Minutes to warm up. They
are much bigger - the smallest one are around 300 x 400 x 300 mm . Volume at minimum 36 liter . They need no
calibration or reference and they are stable over month/years. Problem is that
they normal switch on in a ship and never switch off.. If you switch of them -
make sure that you not move the sub in the next hours - otherwise they can be
damaged. They are expensive - about 30000 USD new and 3000-9000 USD second
hand. There life time is limited 30000 - 40000 hours between first
failtures. <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
I have both types in the Euronaut. And a magnetic one also. <br clear="none">
The gyros are both cheap Ebay ones. One from a aircraft one from a ship. <br clear="none">
And both not working anymore. And the third magnetic one has a big error
because of the 60 ts steel below. <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
I will by next a second hand one north stabilzed ship gyro for around 3000 USD
from a ship scrap yard electronic dealer with a confirm that they test it and
its run stable but without any further waranty. <br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
A fluxgate its a kind of electronic coils magnetic field compass and will in
most cases not work proper on a strong magnetic metal shell like a submarine
with strong electric motor fields etc. To test on your submarine if these cheap
devices runs on you submarine install a simple magnetic compass temporary on
the sensor spot in mind and than turn the submarine 360 degree. Switch on
and off all electric devices. <br clear="none">
Cross check with another compass (or the same one) far away from the sub.
<br clear="none">
<br clear="none">
In most cases an electric 12 or 24 V Dc driven Airplane direction gryro in
combination with a gps course before diving will do the job. But in 99% a ebay
100 USD item will not work proper. <br clear="none">

awesome in a big sub.<br clear="none">
