Weatherflow vane?

[9245]

I would like to get a weatherflow meter (I just can’t justify nearly $800 for a Kestrel when the weatherflow can do the same thing for $99, albeit slightly less streamlined.), but am put off by the apparent lack of a vane attachment, without the vane it’s just not very useful. Those of you who have one, what solution do you use to mount it on a vane? At present I’m just thinking about getting a cheap kestrel vane and attaching it with two way tape, would that work? Is there a commercial or more elegant solution available?

You can actually see the aim point move as the wind changes on your smart phone when running the app. What you do get is the wind vane and the precision machined adapter and mount as displayed in the first picture.

It works very well and if you later move to a Kestrel you can attach their clamp to it as well.
