I am working on the wings of my -10 now and ordered the SafeAir AOA/Pitot,
along with the pitot/static line kit. I also ordered two of the SafeAir Dyn
on compass mounting kits for dual EFIS units. I figured I would get all the
wiring and plumbing lines run through the wings before I button them up. W
ith the wiring and plumbing done in the left wing, I got to thinking about
the wingtip magnometer mounts and the location, and am now worried that the
magnometers will be close to the wingtip nutplates, my Whelen A600's and w
iring, and my HID wingtip ballasts and landing/taxi lights. I am now thinki
ng that an alternate location would be better and after searching the forum
, found that a lot of folks building models other than the -10 are putting
the magnometers in the empennage, either on the V/S deck or aft of the bagg
age bulkhead. I am inclined to do one of these locations instead of the win
gtip. Any comments, suggestions, or info from other -10 builders would be a
ppreciated. Thanks in advance!
