[NSRCA-discussion] Incedence meters

[Adam Glatt]

JLK, I own them both. There's a big difference in price, but the 
AnglePro is, imo, worth it. Used as pictured with the aluminum bar, on a 
wing, they are about equal. However, the AnglePro also works great as a 
throw measuring device, and is better for measuring stab incidence on 
pattern planes. As a bonus, I've found all kinds of around-the-house 
uses for the AnglePro. My AccuPoint is hidden in a drawer and I can't 
remember the last time I used it. My AnglePro is in my toolbox, and I 
use it as often as possible (probably too much!).

Also remember that you really should own a good throw measuring device. 
I've only seen or heard of two good ones: The Budd laser meter, and the 
AnglePro. I sold my Budd and bought the AnglePro, and I don't regret it. 
The Budd has a touch more resolution (~0.05deg vs 0.1deg), but is a 
project to use, whereas the AnglePro takes seconds to setup and use.
