Aeroprobe - Multi-function Air Data Probes for Aviation and Aerospace Measurement
Aeroprobe`s Multi-function Air Data Probes are integral components designed for seamless application with the Micro Air Data Computer (μADC), serving as essential tools for accurately gauging key flight parameters such as angle-of-attack, angle-of-sideslip, airspeed, and altitude. These probes eliminate the need for moving parts, offering a robust and reliable solution for both pilots and engineers aiming to optimize performance and control during flight missions. By providing a complete flow vector analysis, these probes surpass traditional air data systems like the Air Data Boom, which often suffer from increased weight and potential inaccuracies due to inertial effects caused by moving components. Available in Straight, L-Shaped, and Strut-mounted designs, these probes cater to various aerodynamic testing scenarios, from wind tunnel experimentation to real-world aerospace applications, minimizing drag and operational disturbance.
Designed for simple integration with the Micro Air Data Computer (μADC), the Multi-function Air Data Probe is an effective lightweight solution for measuring angle-of-attack, angle-of-sideslip, airspeed, and altitude where mobility is critical. With no moving parts, the Multi-function Air Data Probe is a reliable choice for pilots and engineers looking to push the limits of performance and control.
Multi-function Air Data Probes allow for calculation of the complete flow vector. Its comprehensive design improves on traditional air data solutions (ex: Air Data Boom) by eliminating pitch and yaw vanes, which have moving parts with inertial effects that introduce inaccuracy and increase weight and response time.
