How far north (or south) can the C100 compass engine travel before the systems operation is affected?
The C100 compass engine will operate as far as 80 degrees north or south magnetic latitude. This limit is the result of the three-dimensional nature of the earth’s magentic vector. Once you proceed higher than 80 degrees north or south, the vertical component of the vector starts to become greater than the horizontal and the compass will be unable to operate correctly.
