Electrical

May 20, 2006

Lots of stuff getting done now! It’s all happening fast too. I finally put the connector on the end of the Com2 antenna cable, and connected it to the GX-60 tray.

It was so tight in there to get the nuts on the connector, that I had to super glue the nut to a drift so I could get the thing started. There was no way I was getting my fingers in there!

I also routed the roll servo cable and spliced it back together. I had to split it in order to thread it through ribs and conduit in the plane. There are 12(!) cables in this harness too, and it was murder sitting inside the plane in an awkward position trying to get the connections perfect. I forgot to take a picture of it too. Duh!

Getting all this electrical stuff done is getting me lined up for putting in the centre console for the final time. I don’t think it’ll be this weekend, because I need to do the floors still. That’ll be on the fuselage page when I get to it.
