| Subject: | Where to Mount Gretz Mount |
Here is the situation. I am putting in a Dynon AOA Pitot Tube and I have my
Gretz mount in hand. I will have two lines running from my wing root out to
the pitot tube, so with that in mind I would like to ask the group.
Where (what bay) are any of you building or flying Gretz customers putting
your Gretz mount in?
So far I am leaning to the bay just outside of the tie-down on the outboard
side of that bay. My only issue is getting the pitot and AOA lines past the
aileron belcrank. Here is my thought and I would like a sanity check from
you more experienced builders as to whether this setup would work?
I can run the pitot line along the forward end of the main ribs along the
bottom until I get past the aileron belcrank. Once past that I can move up
to the pre-drilled holes in the center of the main ribs and run inboard to
the root from there. For the AoA line, I was going to run that line between
the second and third lightening hole close to the top skin all the way to
the root.
Thank you in advance for your input.

Thats pretty much what i did except I needed to run wires because I
thought the heated version was coming out "any day now"...
For now I am running the Vans bent brake tube method even though I cut
the skin for the Gretz mount. Its easy to swap out when I go
heated....I'm doing my IFR training and I'm a little nervous without a
heated tube.

After I got off the phone with Dynon today, the latest word on a heated
AOA/Pitot is within a couple of months so I will probably pre-wire for
heated as well.
