 |
|
I didn't put the stall warning system in when I built the plane and instead decided to use the angle of attack warning. I now think this was a mistake.
Has anyone retrofitted the stall warning system on a completed plane, and if so, how difficult was the process?

Well, having put the stall warning vane in awhile back, I'd say you
would need to remove the fuel tank for access, then fish the wiring,
probably not to hard through behind the spar to the wing root...just
removing the inspection panels for......access. The install to the rib
adjacent to the slot is not too hard, although you may need to use a few
pop rivets if you don't have room for solid rivets.

Why would it be a mistake? Just curious.

I am curious to know your reason for this decision?

Disregarding the paint ; it appears as though it would be mechanically easy
but runnung the iwring ino the panel will take a lot of time. But the
question is
WHY? At the stall is approached the elevator shakes like rag doll and is
easily felt in the stick

Sheldon, can you share why you think your action was a mistake?

Sheldon,
I also have AOA but elected to put in the stall warning when I built the plane. It is an added safety feature that cost nothing additional since it came with the kit other than a few hours of time. I listened to all the nay sayers but went with common sense. It will take you a bit longer to retro-fit but I say do it if you want that added warning.

I almost did not install the stall warning because I also have the AOA. I am not sure if I would miss it. I have my AOA talking to me about 5 knots above stall. I do see the light come on in a full stall(I have no alarm). Is your AOA working correctly and properly calibrated?
