The SBC-100 arrived from Aart and the PH-VII team in holland on Monday, but I wasn’t there to take delivery, so I signed the ticket for them to drop off at my back door. Tonight was the night to start getting it in the plane.

Here you can see where I mounted it. It was tough to find somewhere that would work with the wiring. As it happens, there’s usually too much wiring on all this cabin harness stuff, but there wasn’t enough on the harness to reach the oil pressure sender. Doh! Oh well. A few splices here and there. All in all though, we’re making good progress.

On the other side of the sub panel is the HSA controller box. It’s at an angle to suit the way the wires come into it. This position produced the least stress on the cables. They fell naturally this way. Lovely. Man, there must be a hundred pounds of wire in this thing now!
