I preordered a TruTrak Gemini to replace a non-working Pictorial Pilot. The roll servo is already installed so I just need to put the pitch servo and head unit in. I am not too worried about the physical install. The wiring is what seems overwhelming though since I have never done any. I am not the builder of this or any other plane.
Can someone point me toward a book I remember being discussed in some other threads. It seemed like an airplane electronics bible of sorts but I cannot find anything that looks like it on the web. I would also be interested in any tool suggestions. Like a crimper or anything else I am ultimately going to need.
One other thing. I really want to jockey around some of the things on my panel. Is it fair to assume that the wiring harnesses used to build the panel with be too short to re-use if say I was to move a GPS from one side of the panel to the other, or move the radio stack over 6 inches. Things like that. I am presumming that you cannot simply splice wire extensions to the current harnesses.
I am really just trying to decide what I can bite off and what I should leave alone at this point. Thanks! Andy
