I installed the showplane flap system and I am running through ideas on where to mount my Ray Allen Pos 12 sensor so my AFS EFIS can display flap position. 



Can anyone direct me to their photos or post a few. 

Thanks,

JOhn G

Hey John,

  

 Here's what we did.  Others have suggested using  threaded rod with a yoke (model airplane connectors) which is a good idea.   But there is still some fiddling to do to get the range of throw right.   The sensor itself apparently is less accurate at the end limits, so keep that in  mind.

  

 Later, - Lew

Here's what several of us have done... seems to work just fine... 2 of us with AFS 3500's.

Don,

Could you do us a favor and remove image "1510" and repost it in a smaller size? It would get rid of the scrolling to the right.

Google 'imageresizerpowertoy.exe'.  Right click on the image in your 

email and you can resize it on the fly.

Here is what I did, I don't have any final installation pictures with me, but it turned out great.  

    

   

    

I can take another picture tonight if you need it.  I mounted it on the lower rivet hole where the rear 5 point harness was.
