Guys,

As I mentioned above somewhere I have tried to do my install so everything is accessible without taking the cockpit out. Couple of shots so far of the plan....

I have a plate behind the rear cockpit and a small plate between the front and rear cockpit.

The mid plate houses 5 charge jacks (RX1, RX2, ECU, smoke and lights), the onboard ECU readout (Booster 160) and the ECU switch. It will also house the lights switch.

The rear deck has the PowerBox switch, fuel fill, smoke fill, air fill and air gauge.

The PowerBox Royal LCD display is mounted at an angle at the cockpit rear.

Plate under the rear cockpit houses all turbine components.

Cheers,
Mark

It going good. I just have to plumb the tanks and install the power stuff, receiver and batteries. I just mounted the two gear tanks and brake tanks. This thing is gonna be some fun. I was thinking some flight metal on the leading edges to tell them apart.

Might be able to pull off the madien this Tues. If not Thursday for sure.:)

Schrodissie, That install looks great. When is the madien?
