I am looking for a fuel flow meter , don’t need fuel quantity left in tank or any other info JUST flow  small enough to fit in a busy dash and at a reasonable price . What’s out there

Hi Paul - what information are you hoping to get from this fuel flow meter?

 

If you go back, this section,  to about the 10 March, you will find a fair bit of information about Fuel Computers - which also give flow.

Paul - I am guessing that it may be hard to find a gauge/sender that just does L/hr. I think you might have to compromise & go with a fuel computer, that will certainly give you L/hr but also, fuel used/fuel remaining and quite probably accumulated fuel used since last zeroed.

Have a look at the Flight Data FC-10. It's about the cheapest one available.
What Skippy said is the case. It costs very little extra for a manufacturer to put those extra features in the software. The expensive part is the sensor.

I fitted a Red Cube to my RV4. Got it from Steinair in USA. Worked well with the MGL instrument which was in place.

Thank you all just the info . Steam gauges fitted so it’s a stand alone gauge I will investigate FC10

I have a friend that has a FC10 and red cube fitted this annual; we were planning to run engine today but have put it off until Thursday or Friday afternoon.  Will let you know how it goes.

 

I have seen cheap about $60 ones on ebay that may give an indication of flow; I have no idea of quality.  Cheers
