| Subject: | Re: ray allen potentiometer flap indicator |
I like this simple solution to mounting the POS-12. It is inside the airplane
(keeping it out of the weather) and easily accessible for maintenance. This is
my implementation(see attached picture). To get the 1 inch travel, I found
that having the arm attached close to the outside of the flap tube worked well.
I just bent a piece of scrap aluminum, drilling a hole close to the flap tube.
I used a 4-40 bolt (with loctite on the nuts) and a short piece of plastic
spacer material (from Lowes). This eliminated possible interference between
the POS-12 arm and the metal tab. To keep it even simpler, I just placed the
angle bracket under the cushion clamp and it seems to work fine. (No drilling
in the flap tube.) The total travel of the POS-12 is just about 1 inch of the
total 1.2 in available. The comment was made that this provided a non-linear
representation of the actual flap extension. This is true, but I'll be calibrating
it for the VP-X display with actual flap position measurements that should
be close enough. Remember, many folks don't even bother with flap position
information, relying on their eyeball measurement by looking out the window.

I believe you need a software program that can read .dxf. I used Visio.
I just tested and it worked for me.

I just downloaded it ok. It is a .DXF file which requires cad software. If you
email me I will send it to you.
It is worth it only if you intend to have someone laser/water cut your panel for
you.

We intend to go with the vpx-pro which has the dual independent buses. this is
a new feature that adds to the safety of the system for an all electric aircraft.
In addition to the vpx we will be adding an emergency buss to power all
of the essential equipment. This will include having to install 5 breakers on
a panel. This coupled with the backup battery in the dynon D6A we are using
for a backup instrument should be more than adequate for a serious IFR platform.
The most convincing argument is the "built in" control of all of the servos and
flaps. Using the Garmin or any one of the compatible EFIS systems you will be
able to display position information directly throught the VPX.
