1. INTRODUCTION

The symbol to the left indicates information which merits special attention.

The symbol to the left indicates a handy installation tip.

Thank you for your purchase of the AOA/Pitot Probe (Dynon Avionics P/N 100141-000) or the
Heated AOA/Pitot Probe (Dynon Avionics P/N 100667-000). This guide provides some
background on the concept of angle of attack and explains the steps to install both units in your
aircraft.

This manual does not address installation of the Dynon Avionics AOA/Pitot Boom Probe, P/N
100532-000.

The two probes are compatible with the following Dynon Avionics products:

EFIS-D6

EFIS-D60

EFIS-D10A

EFIS-D100

FlightDEK-D180

SkyView system

(Hereafter, the EFIS-x and FlightDEK-D180 are referred to as “EFIS unit”.)

AOA/Pitot Probes and AOA products from Advanced Flight Systems, Inc. (AFS)
The Dynon Avionics (DA) AOA/Pitot Probe is functionally equivalent to the AFS AF-
Pilot AOA Pitot Probe. The DA Heated AOA/Pitot Probe is functionally equivalent
to the AFS AF-Pitot Heated. Instructions for installation of AOA/Pitot Probe and
Heated AOA/Pitot Probe with AFS products are in the AFS product manuals at

http://advanced-flight-systems.com

.

After physical installation is complete, the AOA/Pitot Probe must be calibrated for your airplane
and your system. Instructions for AOA/Pitot Probe calibration are contained in the Installation
manual for each compatible Dynon Avionics system. Installation manuals for these products can
be found at:

http://docs.dynonavionics.com

.

The pitot function of the Dynon AOA pitot probe measures pitot pressure. This allows it to work
with any standard airspeed indicator. However, the AOA functionality is designed specifically to
work with Dynon Avionics and Advanced Flight Systems products. Do not expect a Dynon
Avionics AOA/Pitot Probe or Heated AOA/Pitot Probe to work properly with any AOA system
other than those of Dynon Avionics or Advanced Flight Systems.
