Exactly.... when the 12g ground wire to the fairing fails with 4, 6 or 8g ground ran to it, you're left with head bearings for your ground. If you're going to beef up the ground to the fairing, why would you not just run your 4,6 or 8g direct to a suitable location. My amp utilizes an 80amp fuse, I'm pretty sure I want to ground that to the path of the least resistance.

being that we have only 1 stereo shop within 110 miles, my options were limited. Surprising that the frame NECK(head bearing area) where all the wires pass was such a point of contention.
I just ran another 8GA wire to the negative side of battery.
Good thing we dont discuss the drag coefficient with pneumatic tires on a smooth cement surface with 153,000 plane during an 80% thrust takeoff.
mindblowing - the possibilities

That's easy as well. Use 90% thrust and that drag coefficient discussion goes away. Same thing when you ground to the neg post or the designated ground post, all the nitnoid bullshix goes away.

Same thing with a cam lobe specs between a 107 and 113 slope separation and idle vacuum effects which stall converters are needed.

Exactly?
Btw, it's always 100% thrust on takeoffs...lol.

Unfortunately for you bud, several of us also have extensive aviation backgrounds. Mine started at rotary wing for 12 years. Others in here may have been a commercial pilot for several decades.

Trying to prove a point about a proper ground by flashing some aviation credentials around to guys who also have extensive aviation experience is just solidifying the opinion that you want to argue and seem to be the smart guy.

I’ve worked extensively with SF guys while I was in, with chemical, petroleum, and mechanical engineers since I’ve been out, and they all had one thing in common.


Smart/bad mother****ers never had to tell you they were smart/bad mother****ers….. you simply knew…..

I’m done now. If this guy keeps grasping at straws like this our next shortage is going to be of brooms…..

You go ahead and complete that circuit however you choose. I’m sure you love to do the airplane on a treadmill argument to people who don’t know who Bernoulli is as well to try to be the smart guy in the room lmfao.

to be honest, I never bragged about anything but my education. You put the pedigree crap out first. I just informed you I am educated too..
Did I say I was a bad ***? Um, no. We all know someone that was SF. We delivered many into combat and took most home alive. We took the others home as well.
You want a pissing match, go ahead. You win. I just asked some questions and I get flamed. My project is done, it works, and is done correctly.
The only thing this thread has shown, is exactly how petty some can be.
For the helpful, thank you. I will in turn help others
For those not so nice. Please block me. I have no time for you.
LOAD CLEAR!

Once again, you’re digging into it as a pissing match when people are trying to help you. Your way is better and you wanted affirmation. When you didn’t get it, you started the pissing match. I brought in experience because it matters. You try to throw some unrelated **** in to make yourself sound better. I mentioned SF and smart people as a statement to those who know don’t have to brag they know, you turned it into “I know people in SF too!!!”

Do you see the issue? You’re a one upper. People make an attempt to help you and you fire back with acres of BS because you already had it in your head you were right.

So go find some other sycophants who will echo your misguided beliefs of how things work, let it reinforce your fragile ego that doesn’t allow you to be wrong, and scream “load clear” 😂🤣.

In my line of work back then, it was weapons free….. 😘

In all seriousness and in the name of the topic, after conducting your independent research what where the factors that drive you to the outcome you embraced? Curious what u deducted but also don't want to revisit this topic every other week thus hopefully you can provide some productive feedback so those that follow can learn for your conclusion.

We absolutely don't want sheep around here thus there is good value in you sharing your critical thinking process.

Thx brother!!!
