My main earth block is direct to battery, also will do ground to frame ,but all switches will now go to ground block as will all lights, gauges, actuators plus will ground to frame

Bus for power to accessories just looped to each contact only using 5

Here is my bus for ground and power thoughts? Thanks for your replies

using Tefzel wire sizing for each component mostly 20 22 g 1 overload switch is for battery isolator ,this feeds the on off switch to the bus ,using 1x40 amp 3x10 amp,4x5 amp overload switches i can change these if required,my dash hinges back so i can access all electrical components, also access hatch 300x200 behind the fire wall

Where would i get a bus comb from ,looking at ebay mostly from US and COSTLY cheers gareth

Each switch is per single use other than 2 usb and strobes, radios tx, ems ,flaps, trim,etc all single use cheers Gareth

Thanks rfguy thats what i thought but asking someone who knows is better than taking a stab in the dark cheers Gareth

I have 8 carling rocker switches with power coming through 8 thermal overload contacts, all switches require led grounding plus grounding for load, can i loop all switches with grounding for led and load or should i go for individual grounding to terminal ground block Cheers Gareth

To the avionics guru,s out there ,i have 8 panel switches powering from 8 thermal overload switches, can you loop ground to all switches and have 1 main ground to ground block or individual grounds to block Thanks gareth

Flying into Kooralbyn one morning for coffee and just about to flare and this thing turned around it was a young bloke, his clothes merged into the runway(bitumen) gave me a fright ,powered up and did a go round when i finally landed and taxied to parking he was just about near us so asked why was he walking on a active runway he said, its a shortcut, ,50 metres closer he would have been minus a head Darwins award to him

I have used this forum for the last 8 years and there is a wealth of experienced people that give out good info,but i have seen a lot of the old names disappear and not much is being posted about building which is the area i am most interested in,however i do log on daily to see what is happening around Aus by rec pilots, Rec flying is what we do so i say leave it at that,but its your choice Ian Cheers gareth

Dont forget VH experimental where you can do all the maintenance if your the builder

I owned a Roko which is a copy of the Bristell(same designer/engineer) and except for an initial cg problem which they came out from Czech to fix i had no problems flying long distance, to slow and in stall would drop a wing, normal training stall were ok point nose down and keep flying, but as was pointed out to me by CFI who gave me instruction on type(i didnt want to bend a new plane) "to slow oh no" got very mushy and hard to control, but happilly flew over the fence 55knots ,i don,t know if the controls are different in the Bristell but i was happy in flying the Roko.

I like your videos but please get rid of the ads,that turns me off watching Cheers gareth
