Pardon the curiosity dump here, but I have a lot of questions.
As I see it, here's what has to be wired or plumbed in the wings:
Pitot, AOA, Pitot heat
Nav lights
Strobes
Landing/taxi lights
Wingtip Nav antenna (possible, but assume it's there for planning)
Magnetometer
Is that about right?
Right now, I'm about to start the wing skeleton, which would be a better time to drill a bunch of rib holes than after it's together.
I'm planning wingtip landing and taxi lights, but I'm open to correction. Also planning heated pitot/AOA, likely Dynon.
The Pitot tube has its own dedicated holes. Where do you route the AOA line?
If I drill a 3/4" hole in each rib and run a conduit out to the tip, is that large enough for all of the wires?
Is there an advantage to running wire through grommets instead of conduit?
Thanks in advance. Great site, great people, etc.
