Brief Description: Empannage Electrical

In my goal of having every sub-kit 100% complete before moving on to the next kit, I pressed ahead, committed to a lighting system (Aveo LEDs). Wired up the tail NAV-Strobe and the trim servo. For exterior applications, I'm using seal-all connectors. For the trim servo, I went with Molex Microfit 3.0. I'll seal these off with some rescue tape. BTW. I made my bottom rudder fairing removable using # 6 screws. Side note: For the nav-strobes, I elected to go with and 18 awg - 3 lead - sheilded wire and will be gounding locally. I also opted to run a 18 awg standard ground wire. (just incase). It's a nice option to have should it ever be needed. :-) This puts me at 170 hours for a 100% complete empannage. (less paint)
