Any issues with that location

Hi Chris,
I didn't bother installing my temperature probe anywhere. I suppose it
might be nice as a conversation piece with your passenger, but for
navigation purposes the GPS seems to do just fine at "Computing" ground
speed.
You don't want the probe to be hit with direct sun light. In your case
I guess it depends on how far in the cabin air intake system you put
it. If it is far enough away from the air input to avoid sun light then
perhaps it would not work at all if you close off the cabin air flow -
as I have done for winter operations.
Good luck,
Paul

Chris,
That seems the ideal location to me. Here is a photo of mine.

Chris,
That is a popular location and works well. Mine is under the fiberglass saddle on the tail. It is in the open air and still not in direct sunlight. That works well too but the wires are longer.

I installed one in a little aluminum tube that stuck out of the bottom of the wing stub. I filled the end of the tube with flox, and drilled a hole in the front of the tube, so that the free airstream could get to the probe. I think the cabin air vent would work nice too.
