Sebring Sport Expo

Seattle was being threatened with a major snowstorm, so Mike, Kirk, and Robert skedaddled to Sebring Florida for the Sport Expo. There we found sun, lots of beautiful LSA aircraft, old friends, and many excited customers.

Kirk presented seven SkyView hand-ons training classes, which were well received. We will do those again at Sun-n-Fun. Stay tuned for details on how to sign up.

New Kavlico Pressure Sensors

We are switching our source of engine pressure sensors to solid-state Kavlico sensors starting January 2, 2012. Kavlico is a US company that has been making high quality sensors for over 50 years, and is well known in the aviation industry.

Engine sensor kits will include these new solid-state sensors, and we have optimized the sensor ranges to better match engine pressure ranges offering greater resolution and accuracy. (The older sensors and kits are still available if needed.)

These new solid-state sensors do require different wiring, with a third wire needed for 5-volt power.

The new Kavlico Pressure Sensors:
NOTES:
* All sensors are threaded 1/8-27 NPT.
* All sensors may be used for any liquid.
* The following shows the most common usage.
