I remember seeing a catalog back in the 80s-90s that sold cannon plugs, all different sizes and pin amounts. (I was in the USAF at the time, so I was interested in electornics etc). I'm sure it's available online, but haven't looked for that stuff for decades, well before the internet came along. If you can't find authentic cannon plugs for those holes, if you can find a description of them they may be available new. The catalog wasn't military, it was for civilians. I actually had a pair of PRC-510 radios which had been surplused out, and we (my friend and I) were able to find a plug that fit inside the battery box and got the radios to work!!
I'm not 100% but, I think the B36 is the only Recprocating Engine Aircraft to have Reversible Props. It's common on Turbo Props but, I think on Reciprocators it's quite the challenge to make a Prop Control that can change the Blade Angles all the way from the Feathered Position to a Reverse Position 🤔

I knew you were in the AF before you even said it. Using Cannon Plug to describe any cylindrical screw on electrical connector gave it away.

You're like a one man aircraft factory!
Yes, I am a one man aircraft factory. Awesome!

Question: Are you trying to make the Bomber variant or Parasite Carrier variant?
Doodads and whatnots? He's getting a bit too technical, imho!
That's what happens to my vocabulary when my brain is scrambled from frustration.
@@B36HPeacemaker you're amazing! I wouldn't even know where to start what you're doing. Good luck!
