speed indicator

Been thinking that if I drill a hole in the nose of my faux tank I could fit a pitot tube, then run a plastic tube to my dash and have a microlight air speed indicator to act as a speedo! The point is, it doesn't require a friction drive, gears etc. Just air in a tube.



I have one calibrated in MPH
