Sonex Legacy dual control wiring

Hi everyone, I am building a Waiex Legacy and doing the panel wiring. I was planning on doing the control stick com button by running the wire through the control stick itself. But no hole in bottom. I am planning on drilling my own hole but wondering what others have done. Any suggestions is appreciated. Thanks

Nick

You mean you didn't read page 118 of my thread? Here you go:

Shows my location, grommet, and tooling. I used 2 pin Dean connectors so I can remove the sticks. Came in handy when ballasted up in phase 1.

Thanks for the info, I went through the thread you sent me. That's exactly what I did today. So I'm glad I didn't screw up. I will take some pictures of what I did to plug my headsets behind each pilot. I like the headset hangers you made I may copy that. I am not much of a picture taker or a blog person but I have been following you and others talking back and forth. I have also watched your flights on you tube and Subscribed. I am almost finished with the wiring of my panel. I'll try to send some pictures of that. I made it so it's removable for what ever with just 6 screws. I am using a MGL MX1, RDAC, V6 radio and Ahars built in. I have the wings completely built and 1 1/2 polished, at least started polished. The fuselage is 95% done. I hope to start the engine, Jabiru 3300A, when I am done wiring. Buy the way I went with the Rotec Water cooled heads, Ignition and TBI Carb. Also bought an Alternator from them but will not fit a 3300, so I will be selling soon. So anyway thanks for your input and look forward to more. Thanks Nick
