Brief Description:  Wiring for Elevator Trim

I pulled the trim servo wire out and ran it through snap bushings the length of the fuselage. I cut a piece from the end and crimped female dsub connectors to the ends of the wires. I connected this piece to the short wires coming from the elevator trim servo and secured each wire with heatshrink and then all of the wires together with a piece of larger diameter heatshrink. I ran this through the snap bushings in the elevator and horizontal stab and then through another snap bushing I installed in the side of the HS. I was going to use a terminal block to connect the wires under the empennage fairing, but I think I may just connect them using more dsub pins and heatshrink. I drilled another .25" hole for a snap bushing in the rear deck and ran the trim wire through it. I secured the wiring to the bulkhead with adel clamps to ensure it stays clear of the pushrod. I have two more wires to run to the tail light and then I can lace it all together, secure it to the fuse, and perhaps rivet the top skin on.
