<\/a>I borrowed a specialized gun for Fomo products from my friend Tal.\u00a0 An extension was fashioned with Tygon tubing to insert under the already fastened floor panels of the fuselage quickbuild kit.\u00a0 The tubing is held in-place with two 5\/8″ hose clamps.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Another action was finalize the conduit runs from the baggage area back to the tail section.\u00a0 The right side run will be used for COM antenna and magnetometer, the left side for strobes.\u00a0 The intention throughout the plane is use 0.100″ fiberglass cable lace instead of plastic tie wraps to secure conduits and wires.\u00a0 This method is old school and requires more effort to install, but is much more flexible and should last forever.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Finally, my technical counseller Terry Gardner has a #2 Diacro punch perfect for precision setting the two air supply holes needed in the baggage bulkhead.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This week saw a number of miscellaneous activities completed.\u00a0 The main work involved spraying foam fire block material under the forward floor panels, mainly for sound damping purposes.\u00a0 Other items included conduit tie-down locations and 2″ air vent hole punching.

Next up – final cleanup and get ready for interior paint!<\/p>\n<\/a>This is the back of the baggage compartment where the black conduits run forward.<\/p>\n<\/a>Looking backward from the baggage ares, the Panduit nylon stand-offs can be seen in the lightning holes on the right.\u00a0 Also visible are the smaller nylon tie downs riveted to the stiffeners.<\/p>\n<\/a>The final stand-off is being install in the rear bulkhead.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>The punch is setup and ready to roll…<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>Line it up, pucker, then pull the lever.\u00a0 Within milli-seconds a perfect 1.9735″ hole\u00a0 is positioned exactly in the bulkhead.<\/p>\n<\/a>Not the best picture, but it does shows how well the punched hole and the 2″ SCAT tubing bracket align.\u00a0 Just a bit of deburring the hole edges and then good-to-go.<\/p>\n
