Jared----we've plumb the FT60's in just about every imaginable location, and then some. Firewalls, engines, tunnels, near the flow divider, wires out the side. I cant remember anyone having any issues. Some of the guys at Team AeroDynamix have theirs mounted very near the flow divider, in a vertical position, with the wires coming out the side, pointing aft. Even with all the aerobatics they do, I havent heard of any issues.
I would make a bracket for mounting though. Just my .01 cent worth. Tom |

what's the justification of not mounting it to a hard surface?

Red cube
Mine is on the firewall and works perfectly.

To the OP's question - one reason to make a bracket is to allow clearance to make connections. Think in terms of removal and replacement and initial installation of all your equipment - make it easy to work on! |

Mine is mounted to an angle bracket that is Adel-clamped to the crossbar between the two gearleg mounts (tailwheel RV-6). Quote:
