This is the AccuPoint Laser Incidence Meter from Great Planes.
This High Precision Tool is used to find Accurate Angle Alignments on
Airplane Wings, Stabilizers or Engine Mounts.
FEATURES: Integrated use of laser beam pointer is much more
precise and trustworthy than the weighted pointers and bubble levels
found in other meters giving modelers pinpoint accuracy. (See
COMMENTS) The laser unit rests in a ball bearing supported yoke that
eliminates binding and adds to the meter's precision. The big scale
is easy to read from any angle, and measures incidence down to 1/4
of a degree. Reads 0-10 positive and negative. The grippers on the
clamps are perfectly aligned to stay true over time, and the
opposed, large-radius thumb screws are easy to access and use. It is
designed to be set on a flat surface to "zero it out" with a knurled
adjustment thumb wheel before use. Special notch at the bottom of
the scale allows it to be attached to an engine crankshaft for
checking the engine's thrust angle. Fits wing chords upto 16"
Accommodates wider wings with an optional 36" long aluminum bar
INCLUDES: One Laser Pointer with Yoke Assembly (See COMMENTS) One
Magenta Red Aluminum Bar One Incidence Meter Scale/Engine Thrust
Mount Two Clamping Jigs with Thumb Screws
REQUIRES: Assembling of the Laser Incidence Meter
SPECS: Bar Length Overall: 20" Length Between Clamping Jigs:
16-1/4" Scale Height: 8"
COMMENTS: Warning: This unit comes with a device that emits a
laser light. This can be harmful to eyes if looking directly into
the light. This along with other laser type equipment should be
handled carefully. NEVER LOOK INTO THE LIGHT BEAM, and never point
the laser towards anyone. The AccuPoint can be used to check: The
wing at the root and tip, for warping. That the stabilizer is
aligned with the wing (thrust line). That the wing and stabilizer
are both level. The engine's thrust line. That the fuselage is
level. Helicopter blade pitch.
Replacement batteries: GPMR4022 Optional 36" long bar: GPMR4021
