Default Glider angle of attack indicator by SafeFlight

This could be done with a set of holes, chord-wise around the LE that
feed independent pressure sensors, integrated by a micro-controller,
then displayed and/or driving an audio signal. Very similar to some
projects I've been working on and easily done with about $400 worth of
parts. Accutate, temperature compensated, pressure sensors are
expensive.


Would a series of holes provide any more information than two holes?
What kind of pressure differentials would be involved?
