I am trying to find parts for my Hamilton Vertical Card Compass. I bought the thing, Model HI 350, serial no. 274, for my flying machine in 1982 from Hamilton Instruments Inc Since then, Hamilton has gone out of business. Instead of a normal whisley compass, this thing has a rotating vertical compass card that looks like a directional gyro, but only 2 1/4 inches in diameter. It is very steady and does not jump around like the normal compass in turbulence. In order to make it swing, I had to buy a remote sending unit or transmitter, and mount it in the wing. Works great. I would like to purchase a new remote sending unit and the required 20' cable for the new set of wings I am building, but I am having no luck finding where to look. Does anyone have any ideas as to where I should look or who I should call? TIA Back to top Joseph Guest Posted: Mon May 07, 2007 7:37 pm    Post subject: Re: Vertical Card Compass?
