Odyssey > 2. This drawing adds AC and DC power outlets and telephone jacks to the basic floor plan.
Odyssey > 1. This is the basic floor plan, showing the main layout upstairs.
Odyssey > 4. This is the "downstairs" layout, showing the cockpit (driver's area), the bays, and the engine room. Note that Odyssey is tall enough that there is room between the upstairs deck and the wheel wells. Batteries go over the steer axle, and general storage over the rear. Just behind the steer axle is the motorcycle storage, with drop-down ramps on either side. A "tunnel" between the steer wheels connects the cockpit to this bay. Next in line is the "wet" bay with fresh, gray, black, and "drinking" water tanks, the water heater, and the auxilliary electric air compressor, as well as some water pumps and the automatic transfer switch (not shown on the drawing). Behind that is the 350 gallon diesel fuel tank followed by the axles and power train. The 17KW generator is shoehorned in next to the main engine on the curb side, along with the Webasto heater (not shown).
Odyssey > Whew, I'm glad the driving is over. Now I can relax here in Beaumont, TX.
Odyssey > How to get your bus washed...
Odyssey > 3. Here's a floor plan with the lighting added in. All the lighting in the coach is DC. Most lights are 24 volts, except where fixtures or bulbs were simply unavailable in anything but 12. The spaghetti of colored lines show the logical connection of light fixtures to switches -- different colors are different circuits on the DC breaker panel.
Odyssey > 5. Here's the layout of the roof. Yes, that cross-hatched area in the front is a deck! The deck is accessed via a marine-style hatch. The item marked "Satelite dish" is a MotoSat DataStorm system, which is a two-way internet sattelite system based on Hughes' DirecWay consumer VSAT system. There is a small auxilliary feedhorn on this dish to receive DirecTV. The dish is quite large, as dishes go, and only operates when parked. The green lines are locations of roof frame struts.
