Modification to RWS

Post by still-chasing »

Just want to share with everybody what I did to my TT setup. The original tubing doesn't allow a tight bend without pinching the tube. You need at least 2inches in front of Newton to have a clean loop. Since I want to move my bottle closer to me, I modified the intake and added an "L" shape connector. Shaved the original intake just a bit and added the "L" connector. I now have a shorter extension with some room to move the bottle back. I can maybe go another 5mm shorter with a different "L" connector.

Velocomp, would this adversly affect the readings?

I've been thinking about doing something similar but rather than a 90 degree like that a 180, but curved to help direct the flow.

As long as you have an unblocked tube, and the remote wind port faces the opposing wind, you should be OK

Where did you mount the intake for the RWS?
