I need to relocate and potentially replace the avionics master switch. It's in a bad location and I'm not sure if I like the type of switch (but could be ok with it if location is good. It's a small toggle switch and from what I can see the switch simply completes ground to the airframe (only one wire to switch).
The problem is that this switch was placed on the narrow vertical bar between the two radio stacks. On more than one occasion I have had my hand resting on the side of the gps to steady my touching of the gps... slide hand down and master gets knocked off. Terrible and I mean terrible location.
Anyhow. Would like to relocate and possibly replace with new flush mount switch.
Suggestions?
Here's a pic I had that shows the switch. I'm sure you can see why I've inadvertently knocked it off before. This is where my blank will mount. I could probably mount the new switch in the blank but need to first see precisely where the iPad will reside.
