Finished up the side panels I had to cut out the mounting panel on the pilot side to make room, and then creat a hole for the |
|
compass to pass through. Also mounted the HOBBS meter. Then on to the center stack, I wanted to mount everything as high |
|
as possible, the limitation is the center rib. Even with the modification I made to strengthen it and to make more room, There is |
|
still a restriction, The SL 30 & SL40 are over 11" long, so they went at the bottom of the stack. I've been nervous as heck about |
|
this whole panel thing. Mostly because I can't have the panel inserts cut by CNC/water jet, so I'm having to do it all by hand, and |
|
The panel is one of the things that really needs to look nice, as that's what I'm going to be looking at most of the time while flying. |
|
I'm finding that with some careful filing that it's going pretty well. I'm taking a LOT more time than on the plans sections, hope its |
|
all worth it. Tomorrow I'll mount the Dynon back-up EFIS. The DigiFlight ll VSGV is on order from Stein. It will go directly below |
|
the radios and above the Dynon. The Throttle, Prop & Mixture will be mounted at the bottom . |
