Les,
The antenna ends up nearly touching the underside of the cabin top and is essentially
as high as you can get without being outside of the aircraft but did require
the 90 deg fitting.

| Subject: | Pitot mast tie down clearance |
Hi guys,
Has anyone had tie down rope clearance issues when mounting the pitot mast
on the inboard side of the rib just outboard of the aileron bellcrank?
That's a bit of a tongue twister, so here's a picture that shows what I'm
talking about (pitot is outboard side of bellcrank):

I=99ve only got a few hours on mine and noticed it in a recent trip. I
t really depends on the width of the tie down points. If they=99re n
arrow, then yeah. If they=99re wide, then no.
But if I moved the mast outboard I=99d still have problems at those pl
aces too. So it=99s as broad as it is long.
I don=99t think it=99s worth the trouble to reinvent a location a
nd move it from the standard location.

Mine are in the standard location and I=99ve never had any tie
down clearance issues in 9 years and nearly 1000 hours. Narrow or wide
doesn=99t seem to make a difference. I figured Van=99s had
flight tested the prototype with the pitot in that location, so the odds
of having pitot/static accuracy issues would be minimized if I followed
the plans on that particular issue.

It=99s not an accuracy issue. It=99s the rope running into the p
itot tube of the tie down points on the ground are narrow....

I understand the issue. Just putting in my $.02 worth and stating why I
made the decision at the time.
