Questions
What is different about this expensive one versis https://defender.com/en_us/raymarine-ev-1-sensor-core-e70096? They both offer 2 degrees accuracy. Is this just an old expensive model that should be removed?
The EV-2 sensor is designed to work with electronics "drive-by-wire" steering systems, whereas the EV-1 sensor is designed for traditional steering systems.
