Interesting info on the rate of turn Bob. I never noticed whether mine 

has one or three doghouses. The unit was labelled oddly though by a 

factor or 2 as I recall. I never knew why until now. However on 12 volts 

it seems to be adequate for my purposes.  



There is a company selling a portable attitude indicator that just uses 

LED's.  A search seems to indicate that there are rate gyros available 

that would not be difficult to utilize as a T&B.  The confusing display 

was indeed the primary reason that I didn't like a TC even before I knew 

of the tilted gyro issue.



I also always enjoy your postings.

Good Afternoon Ken,



You will want to be a bit careful when using the

twenty-eight volt unit at a lower voltage. The

sensitivity is drastically reduced.   One needle width

will result in a much higher rate of turn than the

standard three degrees per second.
