I have an A1-B Husky and the IFly works great in it, stuck to the left window (easily visible and close enough to use touch screen), but all of my wires are too long. I only need about 15" to the GPS antenna, and perhaps 10 inches to the power from the aircraft to the IFly battery (which I velcroed to the cockpit sidewall), and about 10" from the battery to the unit. I have all the extra wire coiled and stuck to the sidewall with white electrical tape, but it is still in the way and tends to come unstuck in the heat while the aircraft is sitting. How can I get connector wires with less wire? Are plugs available that I can attach to a shortened wire/cable?

Sorry Chris, these are the only wire lengths we have.

If I can suggest what I do with the tons of cables for the computer under the desk. Use cable ties to loop them and keep them together. And you can get square "mounting bases" in bags at the same place you find cable ties. they stick onto flat surfaces and allow cable ties to run through them to attach the ties to things.
