1 AEOLUS-SENSE  

The AEOLUS-SENSE  is a portable device that comes with a GPS antenna and with a USB 
adaptor for cable connection to a smart mobile device (tablet or smartphone).  

 

1.1 Mounting the AEOLUS-SENSE  

 

The AEOLUS-SENSE   should  be  mounted  in  a  convenient  dry  place,  as  far  away  as  possible 
from  heat  sources. A suitable mounting location is the top of the instrument panel. You can 
mount the unit by means of double sided adhesive tape or Velcro. Please ensure that the unit 
doesn’t move during flight. 
 
Must be connected to the native pitot/static using two 1/8in. BSP to your hoses adaptors. 
 
The AEOLUS-SENSE comes with a GPS antenna. This antenna should be connected at the back 
panel of the device and mounted with double sided adhesive tape or Velcro, in a free-to-sky 
location for optimal signal reception.  

 

 
 

It is important for the  AEOLUS-SENSE to be mounted parallel and as close as possible to the 
symmetry  axes of the airplane (see Fig. 2).  The front side  of  the  AEOLUS-SENSE is marked 
by a small airplane on the cover of the unit. After mounting the AEOLUS-SENSE  the 
“AHRS  leveling”  procedure  described  in  Section 1.5 of the current manual should be 
performed, in order to adjust  for small inaccuracies during placement.
