Brief Description:  Wing to Body 2

On the left wing there are 7 wires so I'm using a 8 pin connector. On the right wing there are 11 wires but instead of using a 14 pin connector I'm using a 16 pin connector. This is because the 14 didn't come in the right sex for the pins which I had already squeezed onto the wires.

I squeezed the female connectors onto the wing side and the male pins onto the fuselage side. My mfg plan shows the pin map.

Then I made two little brackets to hold one side of the connector in the fuselage. The wing will have a pig tail. I installed the brackets and the connectors in the fuselage.

I can't install the connectors onto the wings until attaching the wings because the connectors are too large to go thru the hole in the wing rib. I'll run the wires and then add the connector from the inside. I used pulled rivets to hold the bracket on.

I threaded the holes in the bracket.
