Can anyone educate a non builder on what might be involved to install a heated pitot tube on an already finished and flying RV4?
Obviously, wires need to be pulled. I believe a mount has to be installed for the pitot tube but I'm really not sure what's involved and how much fabrication is required. I am curious how much access there is to install the mount in an already closed wing.
I understand there are a couple of options out there in heated Pitot tubes, the Dynon and Gretz. I've searched a bit but am still unsure which is regarded as the better unit of the two. I suppose the reviews seem to be about equal. I would greatly appreciate any wisdom from someone that has done this type of an install before. Thanks in advance.
