    Is there any circumstances where the auto power off will shut it down mid flight? That wouldn't be handy...
  2. danny_galaga
    Um, don't they say to mount it forward with clear view? Mounting it in the back is not the same thing.

    I must admit my Google-fu was weak with this one. Gauge hookup is a no brainer, I've already wired it as per diagram on the housing.

    Actually just realised Skyreach should know, since they build factory planes as well as kits. Will email them now 🙂

    Might have a look at the Tecnam my engine came out of. See if I can figure it out from there...

    Funny the things you learn along the way! Thanks for keeping us up to date. Now I just need to find out what the pin-out is on this plug

    I don't see how a fully sealed oil pressure sensor is going to be effected by outside air pressure...
  9. danny_galaga
    I don't understand why it would do that, but will bear it in mind if I do get fluctuations 🙂

    Next question of course is what is the pin-out of this sensor?
  11. danny_galaga
    Cool, will order that now 🙂

    Is this what the plug looks like? Of course these guys are out of stock. What the hells wrong with just using spade terminals, dammit... https://jaydeeautocables.com.au/products/honeywell-pressure-sensor-connector-kit-hps3-k
  13. danny_galaga
    Well for now all I want is a connector for it. At the moment, that wh part number doesnt get me any closer to handing over my readies. Although after searching around I found out the sensor is from Honeywell so maybe I can pursue it that way. Perhaps through Digi-Key

    That is the gauge I have, and the plane this came out of has the same gauge. I'm puzzled why there seem to be three pins. Is one for pressure and one for a light?
  15. danny_galaga
    Just verifying that this sender unit on the oil pump being 3 pins is temp AND pressure. If not, what is it? And what is this type of plug called so I can buy one?

    Welcome to the party that never ends 🍻

    Why not tuned pipes?

    I definitely have a good think about what I read out loud to myself when it comes to the park brake and fuel switch status on the Tecnam. Bloody dyslexics worst nightmare 😄

    Clearly though if the airplane is flying, the battery was fine to start with. If it simply failed in flight, I agree with Spacesailor, the alternator will carry on as before. Unless the battery became a dead short

    I'll have to start writing one for my plane soon I guess. It will even have 'turn on skyecho2' on the list. Naturally it will include a parkbrake check 😀 Plane failed to take off due to parking brake not being fully released, safety report finds - ABC News https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-05-17/tas-plane-failed-to-take-off-due-to-parking-brake-still-being-on/102358096

    A lot of the motorcycle wreckers I've been to have the most important stuff indoors. Different sort of scene to car wreckers.
  22. danny_galaga
    Anyway, thanks for the input guys! Cables sorted, now onto the next thing 🙂
  23. danny_galaga
    Oh well. Aircraft spruce it is...
  24. danny_galaga
    I still think the throttle arm will pass my criterion 😉
  25. danny_galaga
    Voila!
