1 hr. over yesterday and today. Today I thread the wires for the sticks.
I used a 3-wire shielded cable for Push-to-Talk, AP Disconnect & Ground and a 2-wire for Trim-Up and Trim-Down.
I have to check other blogs, but I think this is the correct way to route the wires. I left about 4 inches of wire sticking out the top.
This seems like a good way to go... I'll check other blogs...
The wires and tubes are accumulating...
do those wires rub on the bottom of the stick?
ReplyDeleteI'm going to wrap the wires in a protective nylon mesh and perhaps I'll wire wrap it in some way to prevent chaffing.
DeleteDon't the stick controls come with long pony tails? I think mine come with 3ft of wire attached so my connector will be down at the bottom at the stick not at the top. I guess it's pretty easy just to cut the wires short if that's the case with your stick controls... better safe then sorry :-)
ReplyDeleteHa ha meant pig tails not pony tails... this is what happens when you have 3 daughters :-)
DeleteHa! I have 2 daughters, so I understand the pony tails slip!
DeleteHaven't selected the grips yet, so I was just being conservative about the wiring.
