Overview
|
Falcon airspeed indicators have been one of the most chosen flight instruments by kit plane builders and pilots. There are many great advantages: excellent slow speed characteristics; very progressive increments; variety of ranges; light weight; short length; affordable price; and reliability. All airspeed indicators are housed in an aluminum case and all parts are made with metal. Model: ASI080M-3 Range: 0-80 mph Size: 3 1/8" Length: 3.5in/97.3mm Weight: 10.2oz/290g Note: Range markings not included. If needed, order P/N 10-03905. Made in China |
Reviews
Online service was great. Pricing seems pretty steep. The ASI itself seems pretty nice. I really cant give an honest review because I wont have the aircraft in the air until this coming summer. I am disappointed that an instrument this pricey is made in China.
I had ordered one about 14 months ago and installed it in my ultralight. The airspeed indicator worked fine and I was very pleased until it quit 14 months later, shortly after the 1 year warranty. I called the company described the issue and they said it was a blown diaphragm. They stated even if it would have been under a year it a blown diaphragm would not be covered under warranty anyways. They said I must have had a bug in the pitot tube. I checked that out and tube was clean. Ive heard other people have had good luck with them. Perhaps I got a defective one???
