Hi Mallard,
I fitted the Advanced Flight Systems AOA Sport, which uses the differential
pressure between 2 pressure ports on the upper and lower wing surface as
well as the pitot and static pressures. It can be separately calibrated for
both flaps up and down. It is an adaption of a US Navy system.
It works well although it has only 8 LED indicators (red, orange green) so
the resolution is not very high. But it does indicate impending stall, even
in a high g manoeuvre. The newer version of the aoa pro system apparently
uses the Dynon aoa probe instead of the pressure ports, but I think the
sport still uses the pressure ports.

Has anyone ever fitted an AoA Indicator to their Europa? If yes, what model
did you fit and was there a reason why you selected that particular model?
Cheers
