You could always run your wire through woven glass sleeve if visions of vapor are standing in the way of progress. Ceramic beads would work too but are heavier. Or if the airframe is all non-conducting composite, or wood, just route bare wires and don't worry about insulation. Of course you'll still have the fumes/smoke problem if they get hot. Best is no wire. Just send a kid out on the wing with a kerosene lamp or a burning handful of straw(like the kid shimmying up the mast on the fishing junks in the South China sea when the see your cable dragger bearing down on them. Cable over nets like stone over scizzors or sail over power unless power is dragging cable. Dragging cable has ROW over everything. You thought flying was complicated. Or? Design the electrical system with the corect protection devices (fuses and/or breakers) so that it CAN'T catch fire... Just a thought. Richard |
