Brief Description: Clecoing skins and wiring
|
|
Got the inboard skin ready to rivet in place, but my riveting buddy Steve and I have not been able to get our schedules together yet. He needs a hand to get his canopy skirt glued in place, so he is stuck for the moment also. So, in the meantime, I decided to continue with the wiring harness for the roll servo that will be in the right wing. Out of the 7 wires to the servo, 4 of them need to be in two twisted pairs. I tried twisting them by just chucking in a drill and anchoring one end and running the drill from the other, but found it less than satisfactory, so started on an improved method, shown below. Well, after all that work putting it together, it did not work well either. If either spool had more drag on it than the other, that wire just pulled straight, and the other one wrapped around it instead of both twisting uniformly. Probably would have worked OK, but did not satisfy me. Guess I will have to twist them the old-fashioned way.
