On the back of the fuse/switch panel is a plug with two connectors for the battery and the regulator hook up. Using an ordinary crocodile clamp you can connect to one of them and inject 12V from a battery or a power supply, provide ground through the fuselage.On a more general standpoint, what are the options to power and test the avionics and associated wirings pending the installation of the battery coming with the engine kit?
Not so sure about that, Doug. The 12V outlet is connected to the fuse panel and is restricted to 5A max. This might also require the main relay to be engaged, which means the Master switch might have to be on.

This will bypass the Master switch and everything will come on right away. It will provide you the ability to test every aspect of the avionics and the autopilot servos.
