March 31, 2007 2.5 hours - Install Strobe Power
Supply
I mounted the strobe power supply on the aft fuselage bulkhead
as instructed in the kit manual, using Loctite on the nuts behind the bulkhead.
I connected the strobe wire harness to the power supply and
determined the routing of the wires. I drilled holes around the perimeter of the bulkhead opening and secured the wires
to the bulkhead with zip ties as instructed in the kit manual.
I routed the wires that lead to the wing root connectors along
the side of the fuselage and through the fuel line mounting loops and the cockpit bulkhead opening. After ensuring the
proper slack to reach the strobe connector that will be in the wing root, I taped the wires to the sides of the fuselage as
shown in the kit manual.
In the center photo above, the purple line is the right tank fuel feed, the blue wire
goes to the right wing tip strobe light, and the black line is the housing for the ballistic chute deployment lanyard.
