Today I continued to fit the Superseal connectors for the strobes, landing lights and trim motors. I had planned to fit the Aveo air vents into the instrument panel but I’ve found one to be defective so I will have to get them replaced.
I received notification from Airmaster that the controller and harness have been dispatched and should be with me by next Tuesday. That will allow me to install the wiring and install the controller so when the prop finally arrives it can be installed within a few hours. Shouldn’t delay the testing too much.
I continued to fit the Amp Superseal connestors. This is the female socket which had the the waterproofing seal. They take quite a lot of time to make sure that the crimping is sound and the wires are married up correctly.
The Bristell includes a conduit to run the wires from the tail to the cockpit area which makes running wires easier.
The trim power supply connector on the port side. After running the cable into the cockpit I realised that their was a chance of chaffing during service…
so decided to run the cable inside some poly tube to prevent it. However I didn’t really think this one through as I need to run are wires from the wing in into so I’ll order some bigger poly tube.
This was the idea which was sound in principle…
and allows the cable to be run into the cabin very easily.
Next, is to make a start on the landing light and strobe connector. Unfortunately I didn’t get chance to finish them off but will do them Thursday or Friday.
