pre-covering check list

[Meyer]

What is the list of all things G3X related? I assume ADHRS, OAT, magnetometer in wing, pitot? I am going the G3X route and trying to map all of this out. Apparently at the factory they put all or most of that in after they cover. They must have a production formula established to pull that off.

The main items for pre-covering of the fuselage for the G3X are pitch servo mount and harness, elt mount antenna mount and access to hooking the harness on the main unit. The roll servo has good access after covering but I do have this hooked up already. I bought my harness from SteinAir.

On my plane it looked like the outboard bottom seat belt attached tab, the bolt would be difficult to get in place. I epoxied it in place before covering.

That is correct, including the autopilot stuff if you have it. Have your wiring run or planned where it will go. I ran my wing wiring all the way from the cockpit to the wingtips with out any connectors (additional points of failure). You can pull the harness through the rear spar, so it doesn't need to be installed yet, just thought through.

I pre rigged my flaps and ailerons all the way to the mixer. The only thing left to do was to set the lengths and connect the two vertical push rods to the flaperons. I think I was also able to rig the elevator so only one pushrod up front was left to do later. The bottom line is to find anything that is going to be difficult to reach once the plane is covered, which is primarily in the tail section and inside the wings.
