JR,

No the stall warner is mounted so as to give a specific pressure near the
max angle of attack.  It is just a probe hole for a low pressure switch.  

Basically, go fast and the pressure is high.  slow down and finally the low
head pressure at the leading edge finally allows the switch to close
lighting the light or horn as desired.


Regards,

Bud Yerly

A question for anyone ...


Does the Europa stall warner wing inlet have any use in Angle of Attack
instrumentation?

Hi Kevin

I have a Dynon D10A and want to fool with the AOA. I made a Home Grown probe
that looks like it came from the Europa Factory (third leg) I haven't flown
with it yet. Until I get some time on the bird, I didn't want to try a new
position for the static and pitot. Thus my plan is to leave everything in
the factory position including the AOA. I will try calibrating and see if
the AOA gives any meaningful information.

I made provisions that will allow me to easily move everything (Pitot,
Static and AOA) to the front cover. Look through all the pics as I describe
everything and my thinking in detail.

See:

Homegrown AOA for Dynon D-10A. Plan "A", "B" and now "C / D".

The "Taco" approach as I describe to making the inside cover flange for the
front cover will work just as easy on completed wings. Since your top panels
are already bonded on, making 3 aluminium tubes permanently mounted would be
difficult, but I think with not too much effort you could run Tygon tubing
forward. Find someone with small arms to help out! Run by Bud if it would be
OK to drill a hole or holes through spar to run the tubing up forward.

Good Luck

Ron Parigoris
