Check Wiring of Control Sticks

 
This evening I decided I should check the continuity of the control stick wiring.  I used a multi-meter to make sure the connections to the PTT switches are good.  I hooked up the leads to the multi-meter and connected the ends of the control stick wires with short leads.  Both sticks work just fine.  I also pulled the foam grips down the control sticks and used black electrical tape to secure the PTT button holder tops to the control sticks.  I then pushed the foam grips back up to the top of the sticks.  Now the control sticks are ready to be installed in the airplane.
