This issue seems to be troubling some people.

I was over at Ralph Inkster's hangar today and looking at his latest RV build. I thought he had a nice simple solution to Hall sensor cable protection on his SDS installation. I snapped a phone picture in low light, so please forgive the quality.



I invite others to share their solutions here.

5052 tubing for wires

I used some left over fuel tubing to protect the wires.

Service joint if I ever want to cut and fit a Deutsch Connector

There is one SDS equipped RV-4 featured in Kitplanes that has no belt driven alternator. That provides a lot of protection.

Marvin, I just realized that I missed that you are out of phase I.

Come see us at breakfast at KMOR Saturday. Would love to check out your plane! Chuck would love to talk SDS ignitions with you!

SDS system

Brian,
I will PM you about breakfast. As for talking about SDS, I can say the system is awesome and the factory support is top notch.
