Probe eases small aircraft inspection

A SpaceAge Control product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Aug 21, 2007

The 4207 probe significantly reduces the impact of air data systems on the aircraft's power budget.

SpaceAge Control has released the 4207 pitot and pitot-static probes for avionics engineers.

Designed specifically for the needs of small- and mid-sized aircraft, the 4207 probes have low power requirements, small size, and low mass, all at an affordable price.

Today's smaller aircraft have much larger electrical power requirements due to increased avionics and other systems.

But, smaller engines and space constraints cause avionics engineers to rigorously analyse the "power budget" for their systems.

The 4207 probe significantly reduces the impact of air data systems on the aircraft's power budget.

"We are happy to have the first 4207 probes shipping to light jet and UAV users", said Ryan Beebe, Operations Associate at SpaceAge Control.

"These products literally take a huge load off of aircraft designers, both in terms of power requirements and mass reduction".

The product is also one of the first products to enter into qualification against the more demanding FAA TSO C16a requirement that increases de-icing requirements.

The 4207 probes are the first in a series of new air data products now available from SpaceAge Control.

Other new products measure air temperature, angle of attack, and static air pressure.
