Hi Everyone,
First, sorry for the wordiness.
I've looked through the forums etc, but cannot seem to find what I'm looking for.
I am danger close to putting the wings on to stay. I'm using the Dynon heated pitot and AoA and the SafeAir1 plastic tubing for all of the plumbing. As the left wing sits right now, it is completely wired and plumbed with about 2-3 feet of plastic tubing for both the AoA and Pitot hanging out of the root rib. I ran the tubing pretty much to the plans with the plastic tubing exiting out just behind the front spar.
My Dynon Skyview ADAHRS is mounted at the top of the fuselage about 1 foot behind the baggage bulkhead. Pitot and AoA tubing are routed from the ADAHRS down through the center tunnel to the front spar center section and through the forward wiring holes in the seat ribs. I have about 3-4 feet of tubing hanging off of the side of the fuselage just a few inches behind the main spar entry. Where the tubing currently exits the fuselage is too close to where the tubing exits the root rib, if that makes sense. In other words, there is no good way to connect the tubes where they currently exit the the fuselage to the tubes exiting the root wing rib in that confined area.
I'm thinking of running the tubes exiting the root rib aft past the large lightening hole that contains the main Aileron push rod. Do they make a bulkhead AN style elbow to exit out of the fuselage that would accept a 1/8" NPT male thread to 1/4" plastic tubing adapter?
What exactly is the best way to do the plumbing interface between the fuselage and the left wing? Is there a magic part? I'm at a head scratching moment.
