Default Building an electronic Angle of Attack indicator

Well of course, the best is to use an AOA vane, like the jets use. The
biggest problem is where the jets conveniently mount it on the side of
the fuselage, on most singles, that's right in the prop blast,
rendering it useless. If you could find someplace to mount it outside
of the prop blast, then it would work great. But finding that
place......


I would like to see a vain mounted on each wingtip with two indicators on the
glareshield.

I'd like to see how much difference there is in AA from one side to the other
during steep turns, slow turns, and less than perfect rudder work.
