Default Xicoy Airspeed Function

I am considering using the airspeed limiting function on a Xicoy FADEC ECU.

Could anyone else that has used this function elaborate on their experience. Does it work well? Are there any things that I need to be aware of? Are there any failures that can cause problems?


With regard to the pitot setup, what do people use? The Xicoy instructions show you how to make the tubes but I'd prefer to buy one already made. The Jetcat one looks quite expensive but I assume work ok. Is the Spektrum pitot tube any good? They look like the tubes at the airframe end are spread apart. How do they fit into the BVM pitot mount? Does the Spektrum tube also fit into the BVM mount?

Thanks for any help,
