To answer FT’s question, several errors with fluxvalves:


Fluxvalve tilt error – turning error caused by slow prolong turns at high speeds.


Northern Instability – heading oscillation that can be induced when flying on a northerly heading close to magnetic north, banking can induce an error from the tilt to the fluxvalve. Errors as much as +- 6 degrees.
