Avionics LRU Installs and Programming

 RV14 Build August 21

Now that the wings are on time to install the Pitot

luckily I was smart enough to run the wires and tube long enough so everything pulls through the pitot mast.

Running the wire for the OAT.

Pinning the OAT

All set!

Screws have a little lock tight on them and the pito tube is installed! Making progress feels so good!

Securing the service loops.

I installed the Pitot tube inboard of the tie down so I didn't have to worry about it interfering with the tie down ropes. But this cause a new issue to make sure I wasn't interfering with the push rods. Little bending of the pitot and AOA tubes and the routing worked great.

Installed my hidden starter switch power.

Right now just with velcro until im sure I want it here.

The pilot stick has having a loose wiring issue so i cut and repinned the harness.

Pins installed.

Programming the G3X indications.
