I have an Flight Design 2006 CTSW.  The Oil Pressure Sensor ha a single Sensor wire on the only lug.  It goes directly to the analogue oil pressure gauge.  I am concerned about grounding and your advice and experience concerning the capacitor?


Wire Diagram Will Not Copy


C2 is a Condenser Radial CD110PT 2200mF  16V.  It is connected to signal in and ground before the gauge.

I have installed two EI FT-60’s. One for each tank.  I have not found the FT-60’s mA and would like to know if they will exceed the SV 80mA limit?

For S-LSA aircraft, all maintenance instructions and procedures are going to be best-answered by Flight Design directly. The capacitor and analogue oil pressure gauges are both non-Dynon components of the aircraft.

Dual fuel flow sensors aren't supported in the way you're trying to use them. Dual sensors can be used to accommodate a return flow system (that Rotax systems do have), but I believe Flight design has a fuel system design that only uses one anyway. In most installations, though, you measure the fuel flow at a single point downstream of where the two fuel tanks join together. The fuel computer can only tell you the complete fuel state of the aircraft - it doesn't provide per-tank information.
