I haven't flown a contest in at least 6 years, but I have to agree with 
Daryl,
this is something that shouldn't be used in a contest environment.
I use to race one design sailboats and there were very tight rules about
equipment. Everything on the boat had to be on a list of accepted MFG's.
In reality, most of the guys with sensors in their sailplanes aren't 
threatening
the big boys of soaring, but it certainly gives an advantage over the other
intermadiate pilots, and in my opinion that is worse.
If I had sensors in a sailplane, I would not expect to officially enter any 
contest,
I might fly in them, but wouldn't expect my score to count if I had an 
unfair advantage.

My $0.02....
