Bank/turn indicator instrument question
I'm considering ripping the curved tube out of an aircraft bank
indicator to use an inclinometer (or clinometer) on a bicycle. There's a bicycle bubble level on the market but I don't think it's a good design. My question is, on aircraft bank indicators, why do they look like they are about 6" deep? What is in this rear of the instrument? I'm sure there's a light bulb in there but this does not explain it. Perhaps there's more to it than a steel ball in a tube? Thanks for your help. |
