The following work was done over several days:
- Finished drilling wire pass through holes in cockpit floor ribs
- Did a fair amount of research and planning for wiring the G3X and VPX
- Ran wires for Aeroled nav / strobe lights back from VPX to cockpit floor terminal block. I also crimped on ring terminals and used my solder sleeves for the first time to connect the wire shield to the terminal block.
- Ran RG-400 for left wingtip nav antenna connection, also crimped on fitting
- Ran flap position sensor wire, connected to sensor and secured sensor and motor wires
The central tunnel is starting to get crowded:
Flap motor power wiring ready for VPX connector (I like the heat shrink label printer but I almost prefer the labels on the wire but not shrunk - you can see each example here):
Wiring connected and secured for flap motor and position sensor:
Nav radio antenna connector (on the right):
Terminal block for Aeroled nav / strobe lights (the wing nav / strobe lights will also connect here):
The Garmin G3X Touch wiring diagram looks fairly simple:
