That's as about the most helpful post I've seen today. Keep it up.👍

Sure will. He asked if it was just his bird. Now he knows it's not and can find the fix quite easily.

With an attitude like that why do you even bother responding?  I just purchased the Arrow and experienced the same thing along with several other issues.  I have plenty of time in the real aircraft.  Started looking for an answer and this was my first stop.  To put it bluntly, you are useless.

Probably just trying to encourage using the search function on the forum which works quite well.

Exactly. But since I’m the jerk for not providing the fix, here it is:

There is a workaround in the meantime whilst waiting for patch 3, posted by one of the team earlier:

Whiskey compass is broken and has been for many since release, they are fixing it but here's the workaround in the meantime
it can be fixed manually be editing the 'JF_PA28_VC.xml' file in \Packages\Community\justflight-aircraft-pa28-arrow-iii\SimObjects\Airplanes\JF_PA28_Arrow\model
<PartInfo>
<Name>UPPER_compass</Name>
<AnimLength>360</AnimLength>
<Animation>
<Parameter>
<Code>(L:UPPER_compass, number)</Code>
</Parameter>
</Animation>
</PartInfo>
