Brief Description:  AP Roll servo, ECU wiring, and Cabin lights

By far my favorite thing about this airplane is the "simple" wiring tasks. Making Highways for the wires and knowing where every connection is, will be huge down the road if maintenance is needed. The UL Power ECU is almost totally pre-wired out of the box. Just a few connections have to be made to the airframe and switches. NICE. I started with the main power and ground wires. Ground to the big lug on the firewall and Power up through the left side conduit and out near the main 20amp breaker switch. Installing the Adel clamps on the engine mount took a while with tight spaces and guess work for pathways. I must say at this point, the firewall mapping of all the accessories, wire lines, fuel and oil lines are turning out almost "too" good to be true. EVERYTHING fits soo nicely. This is a massive positive note for the build. I'm thinking of using my aluminum Firewall template to create a CAD drawing that can be sent out to future EZ/UL Owners to that they can take it to a machine shop and have a custom SS firewall CNC cut perfectly with all the holes in the right places. Hmmm :)
Another fun task today was installing the roll servo on the spar and 1 of the cabin LED Lights into the baggage compartment. That red glow is gonna be really really nice at night especially on a Dimmer.
