A miniature five-hole probe anemometer 2 is provided on one side of the mounting block 1. The internal part of the mounting block 1 is connected to the miniature five-hole probe anemometer 2 through a moving positioning mechanism.

[0021] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the miniature five-hole probe anemometer 2, the first miniature servo motor 5, and the second miniature servo motor 12 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device.

At the same time, the installation of the first miniature servo motor 5 and the second miniature servo motor 12 is the existing technology and can be installed and fixed according to the actual situation.

[0022] Furthermore, L-shaped mounting plates 3 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the mounting block 1. Mounting holes 4 are symmetrically opened on the top of the mounting plate 3. It should be noted that corresponding fixing blocks are fixed on the wings of aerospace vehicles. Threaded grooves 10 are symmetrically opened on the bottom of the fixing blocks. Washers are then inserted into bolts, and bolts are inserted into mounting holes 4 and screwed into threaded grooves 10. This allows the miniature five-hole probe anemometer 2 to be fixed on the wing.

[0031] Then, the first micro servo motor 5 can control the screw 6 to rotate, and the screw 6 will control the movement of the moving rod 7 through the threaded groove 10. The moving rod 7 will control the position movement of the micro five-hole probe anemometer 2.

[0032] Finally, the second micro servo motor 12 controls the rotation adjustment of the micro five-hole probe anemometer 2 through the rotating shaft, which can adjust the measurement direction of the micro five-hole probe anemometer 2.
