Phil, I wonder if you would pass my details to Dean, I tried through Barnstormers but don't seem to have been successful. davedisney@yahoo.co.uk Thanks Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=369680#369680 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:06:40 PM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: first flight of G-UMPY Sywell From: "graeme bird" After around 70 practice landings on grass Andy Draper sat with me while I tried the mono on tarmac for the first time. Interesting, not that scary though, seems to want to rock a bit and I was recommended not to feel compelled to get back on the Centre Line once I'd wandered off but to keep straight. Also tried my short grass strip with no head wind a few times.The strip seemed a lot shorter than with my C42. So my formal training is complete and it didn't seem so difficult to me. -------- Graeme Bird G-UMPY Mono Classic/XS FWFD 912ULS/Warp drive FP Just competed conversion to type g(at)gdbmk.co.uk Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=369716#369716 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:12:08 PM PST US From: jimpuglise@comcast.net Subject: Re: Europa-List: Re: Pitot Static Paul- I mounted my Dynon on the same wing as the Europa probe. It mounts a little more toward the leading edge as I recall. I think I mounted mine just behind the spar. If you have closed your wings, you would need to put a hole in your skin to mount it, and do as Bud said and use the Gretz mount. I backed my Gretz mount with 1/16 plywood and BID. I put them in the same wing to avoid putting a run of irrigation tubing in the other wing also. The four tubes share a length of tubing to the wing root. I actually had to change the tubing and was able to get to it through the inspection port and do it in only an hour or so. I used a "T" connector to use the Europa static port for the Dynon also. Works fine. I have photos of it all if you need them.

It hooks to the normal A/S and Altimeter. The Dynon probe is added to the other wing normally and feeds the Dynon pitot/aoa. I make a 5 inch access hole and build in a flange then mount the probe and its Gretz mount to the wing about 10 inches back from the leading edge as that is what Dynon recommends I believe for its AOA function. Should icing be a consideration, I mount a cockpit static valve to use the cockpit air which is accurate to about 2 knots and 50 feet at all speeds and altitudes to 10,000 ft. Do not mount the Dynon where the standard pitot is.

I was thinking of installing this AoA, but their probe has just 2 holes - pitot and AoA - I'd then have to find another source for the static air - can you recall what George Reed did for static? Thanks in advance.
