This evening, the weather was really nice, so I broke out of work a bit earlier to wrap up the FADEC cabin wiring, which includes ECU 2 and the HSA. It all turned out pretty good, and I got rid of a lot of excess wire from Aerosance. I still have one long lead, for the Serial Interface but it has a special plug on the end of it, and I ain’t about to break into that. I guess I’ll just coil up what I don’t use. It’s not really that much.

Here’s the rest of the wiring to the FADEC busses. You may have noticed that none of my fast-on terminals are pushed on fully. At this point in the game, I may need to pull ’em off to rearrange wire runs and stuff. All my wires are like this at the moment. When the time comes, I’ll push all the terminals on properly. Looks like I’m close to running out of ground points! Fortunately, I’m almost done with electrical stuff. (Famous last words!)

Here’s a tidier bundle of wires. Much better than they were before all hanging out of the plane! Sorry about the lame photo. I’ll take a better one on Sunday.
