Manual Reference:  TWC Flap module
Brief Description:  Added more to the Pitot/Static system.

We started to wire the TWC Technologies flap module when we realized that we had to add an Airspeed Switch to our Pitot/Static system. The airspeed switch allows one to have flap protection from inadvertantly lowering flaps above 100 kts. The same airspeed switch is also wired to the Safety Trim system to allow two different trim speeds with the faster trim speed below 100 kts and slower trim speed above 100 kts in cruise.

I went to Home Depot and picked up some brass compression fittings to allow me to connect the stiff SafeAir1 hoses to a soft flexible vynl hose that would fit to the barbs on the switch. Not too difficult after I figured that all I had to do was Tee off the right side of the system without having to mess with the supply static hose or the pitot supply which has not been installed yet. Tomorrow I'll wire the switch to the harness that came with the Intelligent Flap Controller (IFC) as TWC's Bob Newman calls it.
