Trim wiring

I got home a little early and painted the covers while the sun was still up. Hopefully that’s the last of the painting, but I’m sure there will be at least one more item.

Back to the panel, I installed the elevator trim switch in the panel. It’s basically a back-up and way for the co-pilot to control elevator trim. I figure aileron trim isn’t nearly as critical as elevator trim, so I have just the one switch on the panel.

Once that was installed, I started the wiring for the trim/stick behind the panel. I have two of the Ray Allen wire bundles coming to the panel from the stick carrying the indicator lines, A/P switch on the stick, and power and ground for the trim. I hooked up the power and ground and A/P switch and tested them. It all works. Looks like a bit of a mess, but once it’s all tie-wrapped it’ll look great.
