Three questions for ya'll,

  

 For those with a Gretz pitot, where did you mount  the control circuit board?  I have Safe Air static kit, did you use the  green nylon tube all the way to the pitot or Van's aluminum tube?

 (Tim I know you used AL tube from your  site.)

  

 On my Tru-Trak roll servo there is a "stop limit  bracket."  Did you install this?

  

 Thanks!!!

Check these pics re Gretz location

 I used the green tube all the way to the pitot, im not sure this is the 

best way, I tried contacting Gretz, but couldn't get an answer. My 

reasoning was that the benefit of the Gretz is that it cycles the 

current on & off as required so that the pitot head isn't always hot, 

and therefore it shouldn't get as hot as the traditional installations ?????

Re stop limit bracket : Yes I did :

Hi Dave,

  

 I mounted the circuit board on the inside to the  access panel right next to the pitot tube. I also have the Safe Air but ran the  aluminum tubing.

I just mounted the controller out on a rib right near the pitot

tube.  With it mounted out in the further bays where I put it,

I could reach that area from the end of the wing.
