HOMEBUILDING PANELS

Flight-control system? Position and anti-collision
lights?
A flight-control system can be as simple as a standalone wing leveler, or as complex as a full-feature
flight-management system - and still need only a relatively simple wiring solution if it will operate without
benefit of any navigation inputs, approach coupling
or automatic trim control . But if it needs input from
a panel-mounted attitude indicator or glass-panel
component (think ADHRs, ADAHARS), then the work
becomes more involved for the shop if the result is
to be a package the builder can install, plug together
with the harness, and throw the switch .
Wire runs to connect autopilot processors to servos,
and wires to feed wingtip-mounted anti-collision and
position lights, as well as any other systems that may
mount to or in the wing - such as a heated pitot tube,

- 62 -

stall-warning switch or electrically powered anti-ice
equipment .
Wiring between battery and generating source and
the switches and relays for powering up the electrical system, avionics and lights are all separate . And
some, the builder may not realize, may require shielded coax rather than plain wire .
Depending on the system, planning for ADS-B Out
compliance would be smart, regardless of how quickly
the builder plans to use the airplane .
Without knowing what goes where and how it connects to other components provides the starting point
for the rest of the project .
Shortcuts for modern times
Advances in electrical componentry and digital circuitry helped feed a relatively new option for installing
and connecting avionics with electrical-supply components and the other items needed .
