Ok, I have two DW HID landing light kits, one for each wing and I also

have the AOA kit.

Anyone else have this scenario where both the HID kit and the AOA are

recommended in the outer most bay of the leading edge. It's seems I may

have space problems between the HID mounting bracket and the AOA port

location.

Any suggestions from those out there that have the DW kits and the AOA?

I dont' have the AOA, but have a question for you. Have you

found that there will be interference, or are you just

trying to find out ahead of time if there will be interference?

The HID mounts pretty far forward in the wing. I don't know

where the AOA mounts. It would seem like you'd have to be

pretty unlucky though to have that same piece of space

used by both, and not be able to get around it. Is that

what you found though?

Nope, plenty of room.  I have the HID and AoA ports in the same bay.

ACS lists the AOA position for the '10 at 9" forward of the wing skin

break at the spar in the middle of the bay (offset by 2" top and

bottom). Funnily enough, I just completed my HID install (thanks tim)

and panicked a bit when I thought of where the AOA goes. Unfortunately,

I panicked while daydreaming about it at work and can't measure to find

out til I get home. That last bay is getting crowded though...

Wow, finally a toy you don't have! Here's the info from the AFS website

showing the exact pressure tap locations for the AOA:

http://www.advanced-control-systems.com/AOAsupport/aoasupport.htm

Actual hole is very small but the pressure tap itself (inside of wing)

is about 1.5" or so in diameter and 2-3 inches in length. They install

with a couple of small screws through the skin.

Also, in my earlier email I called it the PSS AOA System. Rob Hickman

of Advanced Flight Systems actually bought the product line a while back

and now it's officially the AFS AOA System. Sorry Rob...

Just looking for previous experience prior to cutting the HID hole. Tim Olson wrote: I dont' have the AOA, but have a question for you.

BTW: What type of sealant did you use to mate the ports to the skins?

In the pic it looks like something clear.

Thanks,

Ah yes, that would be the super high tech, space age glue called shoe goo also known as E6000.

I installed both in a RV7 - no problemo. I was more concerned about airflow disruption resulting from the cutout because of the warnings in the manual to ensure a smooth flow. I emailed Rob Hickman and he said no worry. Cut away and put both in the same bay. Mine were simple to install. I put a regular light in front of the AoA but the HID would be no different. My other wing has a HID and I put the power supply on the outboard side of the rib so it is easilly accessable from the removeable wing tip and this, of course, would not interfere with the AoA.
