That's really nice to hear that some of You are doing aerobatics and RV resists it well. Simply. I started looking for some quick build kit, easy to assemble, but giving ability for some aerobatic figures. I will ask again, what are +/- G param. of RV 4 and 6? Is this +6 / -3 ? What about inverted flight? Is this forbidden only due to engine? Van writes that RV is not 'aerobatic plane', but some basic figures are allowed. If inverted flight is allowed - superb, because man can do some advanced aerobatics (with low G).

There is no limitation on inverted flight if you install inverted fuel and oil systems. The flight test section of my RV-6 plans says, "If the RV-6 being tested is equipped with inverted fuel and lubrication systems, negative G testing should also be done. Although the airframe is designed for a minimum 6 G limit, testing to about 3 or 3 1/2 negative Gs should be enough to cover the probable stressed to be encountered." I believe the same applies to any of the current RVs except the -9 and -10, which are non-aerobatic models. --- Tedd McHenry Surrey, BC, Canada ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 07:14:43 AM PST US From: Scott Bilinski Subject: Re: Aerobatic-List: appart from --> Aerobatic-List message posted by: Scott Bilinski Yea Im here, just started flying sport aerobatics in my RV-8a, loops and rolls for now.

I was really looking forward to earning my private certificate in that plane. Hopefully one day (when I'm finally out of school) I'll buy one for myself. That'll be sweet.
