Re: AOA tone generator

Regarding the AoA tones on the previous page; I saved the AoA table as instructed and am very pleased to report it works very well :D I recalibrated the AoA zones, just in case, but it all worked as it should and produced nice 'beeps' etc instead of the previous vario-type 'warble'. Much more usable...

Re: AoA differential port locations

Yep, plenty of similar ideas out there; from 3D printers to bent aluminium tubes :D

Re: AoA differential port locations

I, personally, wouldn't bother with a port on top. You've already got one of the feeds you want from your pitot tube and simply have to 'T' off from that. Installing a static port rivet or similar at an angle of about 30 degrees to that of your pitot tube will give the differential pressure required...

Re: AoA differential port locations

There were some clever chaps on the RV Forum who had installed such a system into their machines. Basically they took a feed from the normal pitot tube and then installed a port at about 30 degrees to the chord line underneath the leading edge of the wing for the second feed. I recall one person use...

Re: iEFIS Screen designer and Simulator - AOA functionality?

For screen design purposes, you can set the AoA probe type to 'Virtual' and it should show up on the screen. Once in the aircraft you can set the correct probe type and it does work (assuming connected correctly etc).

Re: AOA tone generator

Oooo, I hope this works. I still haven't managed to successfully get audio piped from my iEFIS Lite to my Trig radio Aux input (volume way too low) but I can get the AoA vario-type 'warble' (very, very faintly even with Aux volume at max). I really don't like the 'warble' because I'm not searching f...
