Thanks for the clarification.
Seems the folks on this thread are looking downstream of the actual sensor/vane to advocate an electrical or signal processing factor versus a poorly installed AoA vane.
as you said:
I suspect that the same sensor is designed to work on either side of the plane so there must be something in the wiring or signal processing down stream that differentiates between left and right and sorts out whether clockwise motion is positive or negative AOA change.
Thnks again,
