It may read to a number 40, but that is not degrees, it is units of AOA.

Units are relatable to Angle of Attack, but not equal to angle.

IIRC F-4 optimum turn was 16 units, not 16 degrees of AOA, buffet was 23
units. Pilots don't know degrees, they fly units. Test pilots and
engineers can tell you what the unit-angle relation is, but it isn't 1:1.

Interesting question. This AOA indicator reads out to +40 degrees and
AFIK no general aviation airfoil stalls at more than 16 degrees. Whatcha
usin' in on?

I need the pinout for ARK-10A/A24G-8 AOA indicator. Part number is
SLZ9421. Can anyone provide a source or the information?

Any idea what the conversion is? I have modified a vane AOA
transducer to use synchro. I suppose I could figure it out.
