Miniature, Multi-Functional Air Data Probes for UAVs and Light Aircraft Now Shipping

Full Air Data Sensing in Miniature Packaging.

PALMDALE, CALIFORNIA USA -- The 4383-, 4418-, and 4512-type multi-functional air data probes offering complete air data sensing capability for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and light aircraft are now shipping. The products give users combinations of pitot pressure, static pressure, angle of attack, angle of sideslip, and air temperature. The comprehensive offerings reduce system integration efforts, reduce mass, and reduce power requirements.

The products are suited for use with production, flight test, and development aircraft and are distinguished from each other as follows:

The products weight about 9 ounces (249 g) with full-length electro-pneumatic harnesses. In the case of the 4512-type air data probe, full air data sensing outputs are provided in a 16-inch long package.

"SpaceAge Control's 20-year history with unmanned aircraft combined with our focus on listening to the customer have allowed us to design, test, and manufacture this family of products ideally suited for aircraft needing low mass and comprehensive air data sensing," said Pat Birmingham, Operations, SpaceAge Control. "These products allow avionics, test, and design engineers to focus more on the data and less on the data source."

The air data probes can be modified for:
