Turbine Controls
To accommodate the turbine controls for this build we fabricated a tray to mount
above the inlet ducts.
This allowed the electronics to be better spaced, as there is limited space available.
Air System Valves
The front mounting tray wa
valves. There are m

All air lines were routed
plastic then up through the mounting tray to the air
valves. This way the airlines are contained and out of
the way. Ensure you leave enough slack in the air lines
ove this tray if required.

kit which are adequate to undertake the air system
