Why use TE probes at all?

[Robert]

wouldn't it be better NOT to use TE probes at all? they only increase the drag!
Why not use electronic compesation and/or i.e. a bohli vario instead of TE probes?

Please search the archives for my posts on TE for the explanation.

I'll try to put together instrument an article for our website on this
when I get some time. There are some other articles there that you may
find of interest.
