Hello Guys,

Back into what will likely contend for the longest duration CARF P47 build in history. Started this project in another state over 5 years ago but I am back at it and could use some thoughts. I am at the point where I need to decide how to route the wires from the wings to the fuse. I feel like I am having to choose between several unatrractive options. I don;t want to route the wing wires forward as it not only makes them longer but also puts them up closer to the motor which I try to avoid. However routing the wires in the wing toward the trailing edge requires navigating the main spar and spar tube which I really don't want to modify. Saw a friend modify a spar on a Racing AT-6....well lets just say I tend not to modify spars

So I guess I'm wondering if someone has found a clever idea to route wires and air lines into the CARF other than at the leading edge like the instructions outlined.

Thanks!
Tom
