Joshua's RV-9A Project

Fit the parking brake cable (t-handle; each cable function will have a different visual and tactile design) and test-fit the brake valve end.  Need to get an adel clamp to fix the cable end in place.  Installed both heater boxes, one on the right edge of the firewall, and one in the usual center position.  Installed the cable eyeball for the right box.

Fabricated and installed mounting brackets for the VP-X control unit.  Installed battery and ran heavy-gauge wire on the FWF side, and the main buss feed to the VP-X.  Finalized install of the contactors and main fuses (alt feed & main buss), preliminary install of the alternator wire (need more adel clamps).  Worked on layout of wiring runs and installation of adel clamps in the “avionics bay”, with an eye toward being able to service them from underneath the panel once the top skin is in place.

Also located and installed a bunch of tie-wrap bases in the forward tunnel with Goop (rather than the adhesive pads) to support two wire bundles, brake lines, and fuel lines.
