1 FlySense AoA 

The FlySense AoA instrument is   a portable device that requires connections to a GPS antenna
(included) The instrument has a USB socket for cable/tether connection to a smart device (tablet
or smartphone). 

1.1 Mounting the FlySense AoA

The FlySense AoA (Fig. 1) should be mounted in a convenient dry place, as far away as possible
from  heat and magnetic sources. A suitable mounting location is the top of the instrument panel.
You can mount the unit by means of double-sided adhesive tape or Velcro. Please ensure that the
unit is stable during flight. 

The instrument must be connected to the airplane native pitot/static tubes using two 1/8in. BSP to
the airplane hoses/adaptors.

The GPS antenna should be connected at the back of the device and mounted with double sided
adhesive tape or Velcro, in a free-to-view-sky location for optimal signal reception.

It  is  important  for  the FlySense AoA to  be  mounted  parallel  and  as  close  as  possible  to  the
symmetry axes of the airplane (Fig 2).  The front side of the FlySense AoA is marked by a small
airplane on the cover of the unit. After  mounting  the FlySense AoA, the  “AHRS  leveling”
procedure described in Section 1.5 of the current manual should be performed, in order to adjust
for small inaccuracies during placement.
