Couple little things

Hours: 1.2 | Posted in Electrical, Wing & Tail Joins

Installed the RJ-11 connectors on the ELT remote cable, and plugged it in on both ends.  The batteries I ordered shipped today, so when those arrive, a test will be possible to verify that it’s working correctly, then the ELT can be deemed fully installed.

Made up a couple 2″ test links for the rudder pedal-cable connection out of scrap alum, to test that length before committing to cutting the steel pieces.  Seems to be alright, one thing I noticed is that at full travel, the swaged end of the cable hits the first snap bushing behind the pedals.  Not sure what that’s about, or if it’s normal, but the thing setting that location is the length of cable from the rudder horn.
