Looks like it might be a good system for someone , but I don't have anymore room in my panel for an AOA indicator ? ??? Replacement parts ? The last time I used an AOA indicator was coming aboard the USS Lexington in my trusty TA-4J . Right now I have 4 x-checks that I use in my S-18 for AS indications...

1. P/S Airspeed indicator.
2. X-check with GPS ground speed.
3. X-check with Tru Trak Gemini PFD.
4. Good old seat of the pants flying . Power, pitch , airspeed and the sound of the aircraft . :o After a certain amount of flight hours in a particular aircraft you know where to place the throttle to maintain a certain AS in a given configuration w/o even looking at the AS indicator . Just my 2 cents after 40 years .

Guys,

Back in 2001, I published plans for a simple AOA gauge and probe that I used on another home built aircraft and I also have one on my Thorp. The write up is here:

I cost about $70.00 to build and works very well.

Best regards,

Jim
