Multi-Hole Probes
Vectoflow provides custom multi-hole probes for high-precision measurement of aerodynamic and thermodynamic parameters that are critical for effective UAV flight, including angle of attack, speed, static and total pressure, and total temperature. Thanks to cutting-edge additive manufacturing, probes can be created with virtually any required geometry, length or tip diameter and with highly robust constructions.
Finished probes can be calibrated in Vectoflow's specialized wind tunnel to your specific requirements, ensuring the utmost in measurement accuracy. The company can also provide associated data acquisition systems and software as needed.
