The panel is progressing. The original panel for the G3X, supplied with the kit, was just a quick & dirty hack of the fiberglass G900 panel, we couldn't make it work. If you're gonna do it, do it right so we commissioned a molded carbon panel, which finally showed up.

Attachment: IMG_20190920_151345717_HDR.jpg Big squares are for the G3X touch screens, circles are vents, the brow sub-panel on top will be all switches.

Username Protected wrote: Any plans to do anything innovative/modern in terms of how the wiring is done behind the panel and how it is accessed (e.g. fold down panel)? Software circuit breakers, but no fold down panel. There's a lot of stuff behind the panel that isn't as flexible as wiring. Changing all that would add too much time to the already-too-long-delayed project. I'm itching to fly this thing.

From static ports to ADAHRS, two completely independent altimeter systems. Attachment: IMG_20190822_112208276_HDR.jpg Attachment: IMG_20190920_111823131.jpg We'll see where that takes us.

The wires, OMG the wires! Finished installing the wing harnesses, slowly installing the firewall forward wiring Attachment: IMG_20190920_142513545_HDR.jpg and still laying out the fuselage wiring harness. Attachment: IMG_20190920_115544824.jpg

How do you know to correct the right wire to the right thing when they're all white? Zoom in on the picture. The wires have labels printed on them. They’re doing this right. Very impressive.
