Wing wiring
Installed protective sleeves over the harnesses supplied by Midwest Panel Builders for both the left and right wings as well as a length of 4-core shielded 18AWG cable for a potential future USB connector to use with a wingtip mounted camera
Installed harnesses in each wing and secured with cable ties per KAI, trimmed with nail clippers to eliminate sharp corners
Lightly sanded aileron ribs components and riveted them per the KAI
Received a delivery of small components from the finishing kit (I have not ordered the complete finishing kit yet, I am waiting for the newly-developed canopy and undercarriage components to be available first). Included in this batch of parts are the AN bolts and spacers needed to assemble aileron ribs 3 and 4. I need to primer these... but unfortunately it looks like they supplied me with two correct parts and two which are too long and may relate to another Sling model. Have contacted Sling to find out what is going on, this is very frustrating - having waited weeks for the parts they keep sending the wrong stuff.
