Brief Description: Bob visit - Day 3
|
|
We knew the shop time was coming to an end this morning, and I wanted to get the pitch servo finalized, if possible, so after breakfast, we moved the big honking #2 AWG forward as it was the main offender for interference with the pitch servo. Since six Adel clamps secure the #2 AWG wire, it took a while to loosen them all up and get #2 moved and out of the way of the servo. With the rotisserie, we could accomplish this task standing outside the tunnel. Then it was a matter of tidying up the wire runs with an additional adel to secure the #2.
With that accomplished, Bob climbed back into the tunnel, attached the aft pushrod, and attached the servo arm to the bellcrank. The remaining amount of shop time was used to discuss the battery cable runs and remaining tidying up of wires. There are still a few loose ends to tie up in the tunnel, but WOW - I never believed we could get so much done during his visit. We powered thru some long days in the shop, which would not have been possible without Bob, so a HUGE thank you for all of Bob's assistance, patience and perseverance!
