Little more wiring and some new conduit holes
Borrowed an RJ-11 crimper from Ray. I shortened the 50ft phone line that comes with the ELT to the necessary length and crimped on a new jack. (30 seconds)
Also borrowed Ray's 135 degree drill angle attachment and put two new wiring run holes in the center section. After mapping out all the wires that have to go places, I realized there was no way I had enough room. The manual trim cable takes up one complete hole in the center. I put a hole on each side, just under the sticks.
Ran the fat strobe wire back to the tail along with two wires for the position light. I don't have the strobe power supply yet, but it will go just behind the baggage wall.
Ran a new wire for the flap motor, first one was too short. Wasn't thinking that both wires had to go to the flap switch.
I also ordered yet another batch of stuff from SteinAir. I think this is the 3rd or 4th time I've had to order something. Purchased the PC680 battery of eBay earlier this week too.
(Time: 2 hours)
