Misc Painting, Securing Wires, Forward Elevator Pushrod
(2.0 Hours Electrical, 2.0 Hours Forward Fuselage)
4.0 Hours Total

I applied the labels on the fuel selector and then applied some clear coat.

Sprayed the fiberglass cut-out on the fuel selector cover with gray paint.

I connected all of the wire bundles to the zip tie mounts I glued on with RTV as well as putting small zip ties in between each mount. These are very secure now. I don't think the mounts are going to fall off, either.

I secured the wire bundle under the aileron trim motor with some conduit to prevent chafing. I also installed an adel clamp between the motor and the spar.

I secured the wire bundle on the right side near the spar with an adel clamp. I had to move one of the screws for the terminal block on the other side of this rib to get the nut out of the way.

Then I got the forward elevator pushrod into the tunnel and bolted it to the control stick assembly. I can't really do anything more with it until the elevators are installed.
