I guess it's possible your AHRS module is defective. You can purchase a new one on Amazon for $15.

From OP:  "I removed the “ahars” from the circuit board, cleaned the contacts using contact cleaner, no help.  I recently purchased a new ahars board from “stratux” on Amazon. Still no help. I have the same problem. "

I agree on Tim and Cobra on this, since you are still having the same issue with a new part, then I would suggest downloading iFly GPS, and seeing if the issue still comes up, so you will know if it is a Stratux problem, or software problem.  Ifly has a free 30 day trial if you download from the App store or Google Play store.

You will also probably much prefer IFly GPS to WingX. I have a free subscription to WingX VFR/IFR, but I still pay for a full subscription to iFly VFR/IFR/Multi-platform. iFly is that much better than WingX.

Tried Ifly gps app. Same problem as before, heading and ADI erratic. I'm also seeing the ATT shifting +/-600'-800'. Gps was locked on in WAAS mode.  Stratux was on a table & not moving. Seeing same behavior in WingX and in Iflygps app. I don't think its software related. AHARS has already been replaced. Only thing left is the motherboard on the Stratux. Maybe I got a lemon Stratux. It's only ~ 6-7 months old. Purchased through Ifly at Christmas time.
