NEW Gimballed Rate Compass The NEW Gimballed Rate Compass (GRC) has been designed to bring the full advantage of single-axis rate-sensors to the sailing market. Normally a single-axis gyro is fixed in the plane of the boat, this means that when the boat is heeled the rate-gyro is susceptible to errors when the boat pitches fore and aft - ironically this often makes the performance worse than a non-stabilized fluxgate! The GRC solves this problem by gimballing the rate-sensor, ensuring that it is always measuring the true yaw rate, independent of any heel and trim effects. The GRC also integrates high-accuracy heel and trim sensors.
