Hi guys,
I own a completed and flying RV8. I'm adding an Alpha Systems AOA, and need to get 2 pitot tubes from the right outboard inspection panel into the cockpit.
How should I route/secure these in the wing?
There is an aluminum raceway that the wingtip lights run in, but I don't have a way to get in there. Unless I run the tubes in from the wingtip, then loop them back inboard to the pitot through the rib lightening holes?
Or I could run the tubes down the wing through the lightening holes, and secure them to each rib with a 3/32" hole in the rib for a zip tie?
Any advice here is appreciated, I can provide pics later today.
