I have completed most of the fuselage now and am at the point where I need to start running some wires, i.e. elevator trim, tail light, flap motor. I can see that there are many avenues from the elevator trim tab to the front. I have a center stick and plan to put the trims on it unless there is some better reason to put them on the panel. I would appreciate suggestions on type of clips, grommets, tabs, splices at the motor end, etc. as there seem to be several possibilities from the hardware store to Wicks. I especially would like a good route from tail to stick. I don't know which side might be best to run down a longeron or when to go through or around a bulkhead or if I need to go past the stick and then back again on the floor or even when /where it will drop to floor. I can figure a route for the wing wires but need some possibilities for the tail and flap motor. Thanks again for ideas/products. John

B+C Specialty has generic schematics available free at their site, and many 

of the necessary components you'll need. Shouldn't take much to modify to 

fit your situation, and they're good people.

Hi John, I think I have detailed pictures of how I did it on my web site.  I used the MS21919 a lot...

Hi John,

I've got an electrical page on my site, www.macsmachine.com, that might 

help you with the methodology of running wires throughout the plane. 

Some electrical diagrams

that may be helpful too. Pictures clicked go large for a better view and 

perhaps there and other pages will help you with specific routing etc.

See link,  http://www.macsmachine.com/html/electrical.htm



Best regards,
