Now deep into the wiring and panel placement but have several questions. 1) Trim wiring. Specifically what type of wire or bundle do I run from the panel to the three trim motors. I have used Stein's "servo" wire to feed the roll and pitch servos but that seems to have too many wires and some of the wires are too big. Do I make my own bundle or is there something available specifically for this chore? 2) The radio stack cooling fan I have has three ports but I can only find two ports on the radio stack. Do I use that other port to cool the Lightspeed console? And is there a preferred position to place that fan? Thanks everyone for the continued help. Jay Rowe 40301

Jay,
Can't help you with the fans but this works well for the trim.

Jay,
I am also running the same wiring as Rick. I also got mine from AS. It is one bundle to pull and not worry which wire is which.

Jay,

Ray Allen sells wire that's perfect for their trim motors. It's very small diameter and the colors match the servos so you don't have to convert anything.

If I had an extra cooling port I would consider blowing cool air up into the top of the panel area. It gets pretty hot up there. Also, put a few vent holes in the top of the glare sheild to let the heat out. My Dynon overtemped on a warm day last fall before I installed the cooling fan and vent holes. We put the fan laying flat so it pulls (cooler) air from the cockpit at about the level of the bottom of the panel. I also ran a couple cold air tubes from the fresh air NACA ducts to displace some warm air.
