Does anyone have experience with the Aircraft Extras relay board? I am
considering two flap switches on my panel (Zenith STOL 750), one for pilot
and one for instructor, which would require a relay deck to interface to
the flap motor. The motor has a full-stall draw of 4A, so it is way beyond
the 1A rating of the Ray Allen relay deck. The Aircraft Extras unit is
rated at 10A so that should not be a problem, but I was wondering if they
have a good track record for reliability, ease of installation, etc.

That looks great, Bob. I guess I could use these for my trim system too,
less $ than the RAC relay deck..
I see that the 12V version of the unit you linked to is out of stock -
should I look for any 5-pin automotive relay with similar specs, or is
there something special about this one?
I tweaked your wiring diagram for my 2-switch setup:

Pat does this allow for "=C3=AFnstructor" override?
