I finished up the controls section of the Finish Kit last week. I was starting on the landing gear section, and assembled the wheels and mounted the axles to the gear legs.
Then my Avionics kit arrived today. And I was thinking that it would be a lot easier to install a good part of the wiring before I put the gear on. I actually do a lot of the work inside the cockpit by rolling the fuselage on it's side (onto a second work table). Continuing to do that while routing wires would be a big win. Obviously I can't do the belly antennas until it's off the work table, but I could run the wires where they need to be and tape them down.
Any gotchas I should be aware of if I do this?
TIA
