Is it possible that your GPS is set to show True heading, while the fluxgate is showing Magnetic? Ten degrees west variation is probably about right, depending on where you are in PA.

So between the two of them, I am always 10 degrees off. I think I am now around 40 degrees low, by the time I figured what was going on. Has this happened to anyone else, and if so does anyone know what is going on? I assumed the heading shown on the i70 was coming from my e95 plotters GPS heading. If it is actually coming from my fluxgate, why would the two be 10 degrees off?
