ABSTRACT:
An air speed and attitude probe characterized by a pivot shaft normally projected from a data boom and supported thereby for rotation about an axis of rotation coincident with the longitudinal axis of the shaft, a tubular body supported for angular displacement about the axis of rotation, a fin mounted on the body for maintaining one end of the body in facing relation with relative wind, a pair of transducers mounted in the body for providing intelligence indicative of total pressure and static pressure for use in determining air speed, a stack of potentiometers coupled with the shaft for providing intelligence indicative of aircraft attitude, and circuitry connecting the transducers and potentiometers to suitable telemetry circuits.
