Default New Standalone Altimeter and Airspeed Sensors starting at $37.99

We think Eagle Tree's new Airspeed and Altitude MicroSensors will be perfect for even the smallest gliders. These sensors have two modes: they work standalone with no additional equipment required, as well as connecting to your eLogger for full data logging.

For standalone mode, simply plug the sensors into a spare receiver channel or small battery (3V to 16V) and fly your model. Then, when you land, your maximum altitude or airspeed is displayed on the built-in 7 segment LED.

Altimeter Microsensor V3


Altimeter Features:
• World's lowest cost Altimeter ($37.99 USD MSRP!)
• Aproximately 3 foot (1 meter) resolution
• Weight 4 grams (0.15 oz)
• Precalibrated – no user calibration required
• Accessible static port
• Metric or English units


Airspeed Microsensor V3

Airspeed Sensor Features:
• World's lowest cost Airspeed Sensor ($42.99 USD MSRP)
• Measures from approximately 2 MPH to 350 MPH
• Weight 4 grams (0.15 oz)
• Includes Pitot Tube
• Accessible static port
• Precalibrated – no user calibration required
• Metric or English units

These sensors will begin shipping approximately August 15, 2008 and preordering is available. See your Eagle Tree Dealer or [link=http://www.eagletreesystems.com/Standalone/standalone.htm]click here[/link] for more information.

Does the altimiter provide anything else but max height display?

Hi Ed,

Yes, when coupled with our eLogger, all the flight data are logged, and can be graphed with our PC software.
