[QUOTE="Tin Man, post: 511200, member: 7021"] The following is related to my new Minn Kota Terrova. I am at the point of installing the Minn Kota heading sensor. The manual states to install at least 2' away from ferrous metals and also the head unit of TM base.... in clear view path of TM. The heading sensor is basically a bluetooth compass. However, I have seen boat owners install it on the bow deck adjacent to TM mounting base. On my boat, this location would ideal as there is already power sorurce and it is out of the way, for the most part. NOTE: I did test the heading sensor by placing it adjacent to TM base and it paired quickly with no issues. However, I am not sure if I were to mount it here if issues would occur when I calibrate it out on the water?? Has anyone installed their heading sensor less than 2' away from their TM base? If so, what were the results? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
