I thought I finished all of the tailcone wiring a couple of weeks ago, but I had forgotten about the OAT probe and ELT antenna cable. \u00a0I drilled a new hole in the vertical rib for the antenna cable to avoid too tight of a bend radius.<\/p>\n

On the right side of the fuselage, the cable follows the tubing run and then jumps over to the tailcone wire bundle and follows it into the conduit.<\/p>\n

I also installed a couple of adel clamps under the seat. \u00a0This one supports the wires and tubing as they come out of the front end of the right conduit.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I installed another one on the other side of the same rib to keep the tubing from interfering with the aileron pushrods.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

I also installed a couple of zip-tie bases in the aft flap cover to support the flap motor and position sensor wires. \u00a0There are not installed permanently right now, but I wanted to anchor them so that I could determine the final wire length.<\/p>\n

Finally, I recreated my upper left switch layout with some scrap aluminum to make sure I was happy with the spacing. \u00a0I spent a few minutes playing with it and I think it’s perfect. \u00a0The spacing I settled on was 1 1\/4″ horizontally and 1 9\/16″ vertically.<\/p>\n
