EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION INTO F14
P-24
Assembly & Operation Manual
Equipment installation is a personal venture. There is one golden rule: Do it as neat
and logical as possible! This will make fault finding and service of components eas-
ier. The F14 basically consist of 7 circuits!
1. Servo wires
2. Power cables
3. Data cables
4. Pneumatic pipes
5. Air pipes
6. Fuel pipes
7. RX cable / Satellite Receivers
Please try and separate these circuits as far as possible. It is advisable not to run RX
cables near any kind of electrical fields. Make all switches and filler valves and charg-
ing sockets easy accessible. If you use S-bus technology it will simplify installation.
The F14 will come out tail heavy if you do not plan installation. It is very important to
install all equipment as far forward as possible.
I have installed all batteries in nose.
I have installed a UAT before CG. This will always be full of fuel and will help with
the final adjustment of CG.
The accessory tray is under cockpit. The cone can easily be removed to gain ac-
cess to batteries and filler valves. Remember the swing wing will move. Make sure
the servo wires is routed for the job!
