Hopefully not hijacking this thread, but electronic compensation
such as the one my 302 is using seem to be as good as the TE
compensation my winter is using, so looks like I could get rid of the
TE probe (except that in many cases it is also the pitot).

Works for me! It's particularly valuable for a motorglider like I have,
because the prop wash drives the TE nutty. My glider uses the nose pitot
for the airspeed indicator, not the one on the TE probe, and I think
that is common.

Possibly, those of us that no longer use the fin-mounted TE probe could
mount our PowerFlarm antennas in it's place. Held out in front of the
fin, the two antennas would have an excellent view of the world, and the
coax could be run beside the TE probe tubing and through the same holes
it uses.
