Hi @Arnold
I have the sensor in the little white radiation shield on the top of the mast in this picture.
From lots of flights I worked out the sensor needs to be at least a blade diameter above the plane of the blades. So if you run 12" blades, the mast needs to be at least that otherwise you get bad pressure values.
Also the mast needs to be as light as possible and as stiff as possible. Otherwise you can get lots of nasty pendulum effects which make it impossible to fly.
Let us know how you get on.
Cheers
Ian
