Aeroelectric Team: Please review my initial bus allocations, let me know if I've missed anything.
I revised my RV-14A build from all-electric to mechanical fuel injection with P-Mags.

1. Mission: Day VFR cross-country is primary; IFR training & use in the future.

2. Engine: Lycoming IO-390, mechanical fuel injection and fuel pump, electric aux fuel pump.

3. Power:
primary: Plane Power LX60 alternator, B&C LR3D voltage regulator;
backup: Monkworkz MZ30 backup (30a at 1800 rpm);
battery: ETX900 LiFePO4 15.6ah.

4. Avionics: GDU 460 display x2, GTN 650xi GPS Nav/Com, GTX 45R remote mount xpdr, GTR 20 remote mount radio, GAD 27 interface adapter, G5 backup electronic flight instrument & backup battery

5. Architecture: Z101 with main and endurance busses; ATC fuse blocks and "Alt Field" panel mount breaker.

6. Demand by phase of flight is higher than I expect when operating:
I used manufacturer "max" values, vice "typical" numbers for planning; when fllying, I expect "normal" values will be lower; and I will NOT use everything simultaneously. I will test e-bus, Pmags, MZ30 at runup.
