I'm just thinking ahead, but how are people running the wiring for the PTT thru the their sticks? And for those using "glass" panels, I've noticed most MFD's have fuel level indicators. Since the Kitfox has sight tubes, what do you do about the guages on the MFD, just run with them indicating empty?

Jorge,
I ran my wired for my PTT switches down the side of the fuse underneath the boot cowl and then back to the sticks. As far as the fuel indcators, my Dynon doesn't show this but my Grand Rapids EIS can if I buy the probes. I didn't want to spend the money because the sight tubes are much more useful to me anyway (and more reliable). So I just didn't use the feature and disabled it so it doesn't show up.

My PTT was just wired by dropping the wire down inside the stick and then under the floor and up the back of the fire wall. From there the wire with a 1/8 in jack exits the panel next to where I clip the A24.
As for the gauges if you want to take advantage of the panel options you will have to install senders in the tamks.
