1 hr. installing the GMU 11 magnetometer connector and stringing the wires.

Brought my super magnet to Home Depot so I could find hardware for the magnetometer connector that wasn't paramagnetic (tested 3 different screws and only this type wasn't paramagnetic).  Double-checking here.  Needed a machine screw (#8-32), washer and terminal lug.  All good to go!

And the shield is connected (medium Loctite on the screw).  Before putting it in I did an end-to-end continuity test on all the wires for this connector.  All good!

Put medium Loctite on the screws and tightened it down.  It is very solidly connected and will not move.  Tied up the wires after this picture was taken.

Stringing my daisy-chain CAN Bus wires to the pitch servo area.

The wire coming from the pitch servo daisy-chain goes to the roll servo and the length is near perfect.

Materials out for the pitch servo and I'll tackle that tomorrow.
