• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

For about two weeks now, my front seat passengers have been commenting that the compass on the front instrument panel is going crazy. It's bouncing and spinning all over the place. I even saw a video of it that someone took. I'll post the video once I receive it from my friend.

I haven't installed any new equipment in the plane, the fluid level looks good.

What could cause this type of compass behavior?

Thanks,
Glenn
