Brandon J replied to Hawhoo's discussion Where would you install the airspeed sensor on a skyfun
"I'd recommend installing it directly into the airstream, as far in-front of the fuselage as you can.  The angular installation will cause errors due to blanking when there is some sideslip."

Hi,

I bought a batch of these for my own purposes but can release some.

£50 GBP each as they are or £75 modified to run and power from usb port.

They are almost certainly the circuit board used in the evaluation kit but I can't say for sure.

In any case they are equivalent in function. I can supply pinout and equivalent circuit information with them. If you buy the basic board from me I can supply details how to do the usb modification.

everything you need is on the board, antenna short circuit protection, backup capacitor ( although you might want to put a supercap there instead), voltage regulator for the LEA-4T chip. supply decoupling etc

Regards

Anthony
