I'm about to balance my left aileron but before I do, I need to determine the best
way to route and secure the 2 conductor wire for the Mac servo which controls the
tab. I want to eliminate any vibration or chafing for these wires in a way that
does not complicate the aileron install process and also need to decide on the best
location for the connector.

Early on in wing constrtuction, I ran the trim tab wiring out to the tip and aft
toward the tip TE. It penetrates the tip closeout rib just behind the wing rear
spar and I was planning to run the wire into the aileron and make the connection
inside the aileron. Now I'm thinking this may not be the best idea. It would seem
better to make a permanent connection in the aileron, secure the wire along the
forward face of the aileron spar, run the wire into the wingtip and make the
connection inside the wingtip. I did build an access panel into each wingtip. I'm
hoping that some of you could describe your solution/s to this problem.

Thanks,

Angier Ames
