Nice to see this bird coming together so fast. Looks great. (BTW-AFS is cutting my panel this week for my RV7 too. Can't wait to see it)

G,day Base Leg Aviation from Sydney Australia. Thank you for the explanation of the electrical circuit design in the helicopter. Takeaways * Circuit breaker board "hot" for accessories not isolated by main switch. * Solenoids: not sure of their purpose, I will research. * APU input, is only for charging current to battery? You mentioned data upgrades: all via that connection? 🌏🇭🇲

[@baselegaviation1614]

The 2 big metal solenoids are for the master and starter circuits. Yes, the APU power receptacle is primarily used to charge the battery and to power the aircraft on the ground rather than depleting the battery.

Great progress. What kind of carpet did you use for interior and do you have a link where to get it
