Joe,
I have pretty close to this ....based on the z16. I have a rotax powered
europa with dynon skyview (with backup battery) with a mechanical and
electric fuel pump. Everything is powered off a main bus with fuses. My
trim runs off the battery with a circuit breaker.
I have ovp through a bandc voltage regulator. You reset this by shutting
off the generator.
Its about as simple as it gets i think.
And i have a 30a fuze to protect the main bus at your recommendation.
im a very satisfied customer.
And i keep everything on when i start the engine.
I dont have a baggage bay light but my landing light came from amazon.

Joe,
I think that is a great idea. I would like to see that, followed by an
evolution toward more complex electrical systems. Start with the most
basic. Then add a component/feature and explain how it compares to the most
basic -- advantages, disadvantages. And then further up the complexity
tree, with each system being compared to the previous. An approach like
that would be very helpful to those of us who don't have the broad general
knowledge that so many on this list do have.
