Renovation of the power grid
Realizing the AMP plugs don't really work (too much unisolated parts even after using lots of shrink tube, too many loose cables) it redid pretty much all electric power cables in the ship.
- The batteries got nice Tamiya style connectors, and thick (ex-loudspeaker) cables: no exposed contacts, fits only one way (no polarity mix-up).
- Groups of luster terminals connected to Tamiya plugs for the batteries now provide 6 slots each for GND and +6V, and 4 slots for +12V (combination of two batteries in a row). The "power busses" connect to the inputs of the three power controllers.
- Luster terminals to connect the power controller output with the engines.
- The bow thruster cable got extended.
- The stern thruster cable got shortened.
- The main engine finally got a cable.
