hi , I’m new to the forum,but just got a pioneer 700 deluxe and am really taken with it. I will have lots of questions for everyone, but the first one that comes to mind is, does anyone know where I can get a compass to mount on my pioneer?
I’ve been playing around with atv’s forever,and have always just used a regular compass and walked far enough away from the machine until it worked.But surely someone must make a compass that works on an ATV. I put a marine compass on it,and thought that would work,but it spins around faster that the cooling fan .
Does anyone have any ideas?
Or am I going to have to go back to a GPS?
Thanks a lot

You can do a compass, I’d go On Amazon and find one for a car. That might be your best bet. Other than that, a good gps unit will have one in it plus you can load your trail maps on to it.

Congrats on your newly acquired toy, and welcome to our club from Cleveland!
There was a member @ofrcboy that was looking into a compass as well.
Hopefully he can chime in with his research and route he took to get one.

Welcome to the forum.....
GPS or a smart phone app is best' I think.
I use this app for heading and elevation....And for tracking..

If it’s helpful, I use onX Hunt for iOS. It has the footprints tracker but what I really like it shows property lines and ownership names. I always try to be aware where I am and not disrespect property owners so this app fits the bill for me.
