During flight, all cables and connections are
subject to vibration and acceleration forces.
This is why it is necessary to place all wires and
cables carefully. All connectors must be firmly
connected. Use only connectors with protection
against reversing. If wires are too short, they
can get disconnected during flight. This must be
absolutely avoided.
For securing the battery on the tray, use Velcro.
Make sure that no cables can rub
against any sharp edges. For protec-
ting the cables use edge protector
item no. 4594 and braided sleeving
wrap, item no. 4593. Prior to each
flight, check all cables to make sure
they are whole and not damaged.
Prior to each flight, check that all
connectors firmly connected.
We recommend the use of the anti-static kit (item no. 4358 included here). This reduces
potential effects of static discharge of the belt.
