Vertical compass card & DG vary by a LOT

in General Discussion

Noticed discrepancy in compass while in flight.

Confirmed discrepancy while on downwind for runway 27: DG indicated 90 degrees and vertical compass card showed 60 degrees.

Please see photos of various instruments.
Nothing new in the panel.

I'd appreciate any thoughts, suggestions.
Thank you.

    I have one that had the same problem over the weekend. Have you considered calling the manufacturer?

    Interesting. I purchased the vertical compass card due to your writing about it, and have loved it!

    Will try contacting the manufacturer.
    Thanks.
