| I thought I'd get the pilot & co- pilot Headset/mic plulgs out of the way this morning. expected it would be a couple of hours. |
|
| Turned out to be a lot more. (I'm logging 4.5 hours but I spent all day and only got the 2 plugs done). I spent a lot of time just |
|
| researching how to wire them, I guess everyone expects that you should know, but I didn't, and had to search around a bit for |
|
| the information. I think I've got it straight, but we'll see when test time comes. Also this was my 1st encounter with the soldering |
|
| iron, and that took a few learning curve appemptss before getting satisfactory results. I also put some molex connectors on both |
|
| the co-pilot &pilot sides, to facilitate installing/removing the panel and maintenance. After seeing how well the power distribution |
|
| wire bundle looks , I'm not at all happy with the other wiring groups and am thinking about redoing some of them to make for a |
|
| more tidy panel (I don't like AT ALL the idea aof taking more time on this rather unpleasant task, but the thoughts of leaving it |
|
| 'messy' is running against my OCD genes. I called Stein to see where the eyeball vents were as I needed to make sure there |
|
| would be room for them, particularly on the pilot side. The require a 2" hole , so I positioned the plugs appropriately. I also |
|
| ordered the extra lighted rocker switch for the auto pilot that I missed the 1st time around. |
