The FlightDEK-D180 uses three angular rate (gyro) sensors, three accelerometers, three magnetic field strength sensors, and three pressure transducers in its sensing platform. Everything but the magnetic sensors are located in the instrument case. To better measure the earth’s magnetic field, the magnetic sensors are mounted remotely in the EDC-D10A remote compass module.
