Without seeing photos of other parts...it looks like the radio compass used on the Me110, Ju88, Do17, and He111

Re: From a german aircraft? Fernkompass, etc.

The part in your foto is similar to the parts (Fl. 23475) (see attached fotos) for my Patin Peiltochterkompass Fl. 23470 used on many multi-engine Luftwaffe aircraft. They came in a package of 3. This was used to record the compass error when the aircraft was turn thru 360°
It may be from and earlier or later Patin compass or from a different manufacturer's kompass.

Hi Salerno1943
Photo P7140003 Looks to be part of a radio frame from a German aircraft, as used in most single seat aircraft. But would need to see a better picture to confirm.
Kind Regards

The diameter of the Patin disk is 16.5 cm with the hole diameter of 6.0 cm, a bit larger than yours but both have the compass degrees marked around the outer edge.
