Bill:
If it's a certified plane do what the AFM, AOM or check list call for.
Most AFM's tell you to turn the MASTER switch on together before
start and off together after start, and they even make it easy for you
with a single split switch.
I agree it probably does not matter. My opinion is given the choice,
turn the battery and ALT on at the same time before start. That
way you will not forget. There really is no advantage in making
multiple steps for yourself. Its a single engine plane not a B737.
Less is more. Once on (bat/alt) together, once off together.
I assume this is a factory plane (Cessna) and not an experimental.
If it's an experimental with an internally regulated (ND) Nippon Denso
alternator, I highly, highly recommend turning the "ALT" on before
engine start and leave the ALT on until the engine shut downs. ND's
are designed to turn themselves on and off as needed. Forcing it
while spinning is not necessary and even counter productive.

It makes no difference. The arguments for and against
either philosophy are not backed by good science meaning
that effects cited as undesirable are so weak as to be
insignificant.
This presumes that you have a "controllable" alternator,
i.e. a separately regulated machine wherein the panel mounted
alternator switch has control over the alternator's field
supply.
The present state of the art for control systems intended
to bring some measure of protection against failures of
internally regulated alternators offers a means by which
the machine can be damaged if inadvertently turned off
by disconnection of the b-lead which produces a load-dump
that can be deleterious to the alternator. Many internally
regulated alternators cannot withstand their own load dumps.
In these cases, one may turn the alternator ON at any time
but it's prudent to wait until the engine stops turning to
turn it OFF.
In the mean time, know that a control system for internally
regulated alternators is "in the works" with an achievable
goal of making the IR alternator behave as if it were
an externally regulated machine. This will offer the
OBAM aircraft builder the option of using the stock
internally regulated alternator as a form-fit-function
replacement for the traditional externally regulated
system at a fraction of the cost and without giving
up functionality or control

I'm really glad to hear that this is in the works, Bob. Even thought I am
pretty familiar with alternators and regulators, the Van's 60 amp internally
regulated alternator on my airplane is a "black box." I have no idea what
function the 2 wires that run from the "field" breaker to the alternator serve.
I believe it is a Nippondenso system. In the meantime, do you know of any
available documentation which would reveal any details of its operation?

Not that I've been made privy to. That's a major
stumbling block for my personal approach to
systems integration, failure mode effects analysis
and mitigation.
I'm going to look at an alternator drive
stand this weekend that I'm told is a 2+
hp machine with variable speed drive and
isn't covered in more barn-bird-crap than
one would want to wash into the gutters in
front of my house.
If this machine can be resurrected, I'll
be able to characterize the performance of
any product one wishes to examine. I have
a couple of alternators here now that came
from folks on the List that I want to
put into a Z-11 mock-up and characterize
their performance and/or failures.
It seems unlikely that we'll ever be privy
to detailed inner workings of all the options
out there. I'll suggest a prudent approach
that assumes nothing.

I was just looking at
http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles/commtap/commtap.html and if I
understand it correctly this will break the antenna connection from the in
dash com (disabling it)and allow the hand help to use the antenna. I would
prefer to be able to use both radio's at once if needed. I have read here on
Aeroelectric that a "t" type bnc connector will cause the antenna to loose
some of it's range. Is there a better way to use both radios at the same
time ?

There is no good way to connect two radios that operate in the same
band to the same antenna, i.e. you can't connect two comm radios to
the same antenna. If you put in a 'T' connector to connect both
radios to the same antenna, odds are very good that the first time
you transmit on one radio you will destroy the other.
So the best answer is, "add another antenna."
If you want to connect a handheld radio to your regular comm antenna,
bring the com antenna coax to a place you can readily reach (like
just under the leading edge of the panel) and terminate it with a BNC
female connector. Bring the coax from your comm radio to the same
place terminated in a BNC male. Connect them together. If you need to
plug your hand-held into the comm antenna because your main comm has
failed, reach under the panel, disconnect the BNC male from the
regular comm, and attach the antenna cable from your handheld to the
now-free BNC female that goes to the antenna.

Check the archives - recently there was a thread on pins and there was a

for the high density.
I don't remember which list but it was within the last few days.....I have
the other tool - I'll try to remember this weekend to get part num......

I've removed those pins with the throwaway removers. Make sure you're

===============================
Randy:
I hope someone got to you sooner than I on your question?
You CANNOT use a 'T' fitting to use both radios at the same time.
The HUGE problem in doing so is that when you TRANSMIT the output of one
radio will go directly into the other radio and BLOWOUT that radio. And since
there is also a mismatch it could even do damage to the transmit radio,
The ONLY way I know of to use one antenna and two radios is to disconnect one
radio from the antenna. Which brings up a second problem. When you
disconnect the panel Com it is sitting without an antenna/load. If you were to
hit
the transmit button on the stick you could blow the output circuit of the Com
radio.
Best way around this is to have two antennas. Second best way is to shout
off the panel Com radio when using the HH radio.

I second that. Tried several different ones that all seemed to have
been written by engineers with way too much DOS influence. The
Capilano software is cheap and intuitive and has a very short
learning curve. Downside is that you won't be able to exchange
drawings with anybody. But you'll be able to whip out schematics
like the ones at the bottom of
http://www.davemorris.com/PhotoViewer.cfm?Subdirectory=Dragonfly%20Electrical
in no time at all.

You need a tool like

which offers interchangeable blades for working
both the 20 and 22HD sized d-sub connectors.

--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: <rparigor@suffolk.lib.ny.us>
I have a Dynon D10A. Would be nice to use the AOA feature. Already have a
pitot/static under wing of my Europa.
I am thinking a probe high up on the rudder may work and not complicate
rigging the wings or hurting anything when wings go on trailer.
Dynon sells a boom mount AOA/pitot, part number is 100532-000 but it is 1"
in diameter and has a pitot.
I am thinking something like a thin wall 5/16" or 1/4" tube, with 1" of
the tip turned up, flattened, and plugged up and a hole drilled.
Has anyone mounted a AOA on rudder?
Know where to buy one?
Made one?
Thx.

How about an engineering notebook and a Sharpie.

Subject: | HAND HELD COM ANTENNA CONNECTION |
--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Ed Holyoke" <bicyclop@pacbell.net>
There actually is a way to use two Com radios on one antenna. Bob Archer
sells an antenna switch that connects both radios while receiving and
disconnects the passive radio when either transmits. I think he can be
reached at:
bobsantennas@earthlink.net
Google him up and you'll find all kinds of interesting stuff.

===============================
Randy:
I hope someone got to you sooner than I on your question?
You CANNOT use a 'T' fitting to use both radios at the same time.
The HUGE problem in doing so is that when you TRANSMIT the output of one
radio will go directly into the other radio and BLOWOUT that radio. And
since
there is also a mismatch it could even do damage to the transmit radio,
The ONLY way I know of to use one antenna and two radios is to
disconnect one
radio from the antenna. Which brings up a second problem. When you
disconnect the panel Com it is sitting without an antenna/load. If you
were to hit
the transmit button on the stick you could blow the output circuit of
the Com
radio.
Best way around this is to have two antennas. Second best way is to
shout
off the panel Com radio when using the HH radio.
