Brief Description: More wire tidying
|
|
Having installed the Stick Grips I could now route the PTT wiring. This goes inboard from the sticks to the central tunnel, then forward to join everything else heading up to the avionics.
Picture 1 shows the mess of wiring now in the central tunnel, and I have now attached the plastic "System Blocks" that clamp the wires down, in three places. I am still concerned about clearance between the wiring/fuel lines and the Flaperon Mixer Arm. Following advice from Vans and others, I prepared a U-shaped hole in the end of a stick of wood, the same diameter as the pipe. With the stick bridging the tube, I hit the stick with a mallet, moving along the length of the tube as I went. This ensured that the tube was sitting on the floor, and resulted in no dents ;-)
Picture 2 shows the wiring loom now cable-wrapped, and looking somewhat more tidy.
Picture 3 shows the wiring in the forward tunnel. Still some finish work to do here, but I am awaiting a pin crimper from Steinair to complete this.
