| Brief Description: |
Finishing sensor cables & fitting flap position in |
|
|
Finished the connectors for all the engine sensors for the Dynon. Cut a new hole through the seat back and routed the cables. I am fitting a push-button flap actuator, and it needs to know where the flaps are. So I am fitting a Ray Allen POS switch to the arm that holes the flap motor. I plut a piece of cardboard against the arm and drove the flap motor through its complete travel - marking the changing position. Then I extended the marks to find the pivot point, calculated where 30 degrees of travel would be (only want 30 degrees of flap) and with lots of trail and error chose a hole position to mount the senor arm. Part of the issue is that the sensor arm travels only 1 inch - so it has to be located close enough to the pivot point that 30 degrees of movement travels less than an inch. |
