Brief Description: Battery, GPP, and contactor install

Today was a day to get some itmes knocked out that will easier to do before I close up the tailcone as part of the canopy install. Anyway, I install the battery and both the battery and ground power point contactors. It was all straight forward except for the battery. I'm using an Odyssey PCL925 which is not what the battery tray was designed. The battery can be mounted in any orientation so by turning it up on it's rear side it fits perfectly in the tray from left to right. But it's short fore to aft no matter how you place it in the tray. So I fab'd up a spacer to fill in the gap and lock the battery into place.
