Hi Ed,
Yes this is part of the system I am programming.  It also read and writes to the EC2 ( I think the map function will be rather handy,) engine monitor, moving map  (using georeferenced .tiff of the sectionals available for $2.50 each rather than buying paper charts), check lists, and monitoring for absent minded pilot, etc.
 
I have not purchased the sensor yet, but am about 98% sure I am going to go with micro strain's 3DM-GX1($1500).  It uses 3 axis magnetometers, accelerometers and gyros.  They have a less expensive (3DM, $750) unit that uses 3 axis magnetometers and accelerometers but is not gyro stabilized.  Since this bird will eventually be for IFR use, I am leaning towards the 3DM-GX1 to be on the safe side.
 
Joe
