I have been working on mounting the wingtip nav/position/ strobe lights. It was kind of a pain for several reasons: I had to source some rivnuts, then when trying to set them with a bolt and nut, it wasnt working and the bolt was stripping. I have a rivnut tool but it didnt have the size I needed. I had to purchase the rivnut tool stem size I needed. But the one I got didnt fit my tool so I went down to Harbor Freight and they had a tool with the size I needed. It was good enough to get the six rivnuts set. Setting the rivnuts in the fiberglass was a little tricky because in some areas it was solid fiber, others were hollow behind and other were on the line half filled/hollow.
After the light mounts were mounted I extended the wires off the lights, ran them thru the wing tip and also mounted and secured the wires inside the wingtip. Lastly I made the connectors that plug into the wing side and tested the lights. They all worked. Next up was to mount and rivet the wingtips on.
Now that the wing tips are on I am going to work on mounting the flaps. But, most importantly my landing gear and fuselage kit are set to arrive on July 2nd and I am very excited to see this thing go up on landing gear.
