Installing OAT sensor
1.5h
March 14, 2026
Just a small amount of work -- installing OAT sensor and cutting holes for the switches.
I checked where different builders put OAT sensor, and it seems like one of the popular locations is under the horizontal stabilizer. I didn't want to install it in the wings, just because wire run would be less convenient.
I haven't found a definitive answer about whether I should put it on the left side or the right side, so I put it on the right side.
Also, I worked on cutting holes for the brackets that house Contura-V switches. I ordered one switch to test how well it works, and to see if Amber Red LED color looks good.
This is what the switch looks like.
