| Subject: | Dual mags now...one Plasma II plus later |
My plan is to fly off several hours in the RV-7 using two Slick mags
before transitioning over to a one mag and Plasma II plus system. With
this in mind, what is the best way to spec-out and set-up the ignition
switches? I am referencing Z-13/8 AEC as the basis for my design. The
Z-13 diagram shows an s700-1-3 and a s700-2-10. Perhaps a s700-2-50
would make more sense.
Thanks,
Wade Roe

| Subject: | Strobe Power Supply Location |
I am building an RV-7 and my Whelen strobe power supply (HDACF) has
ended up being quite close to my pitch servo (approx. 4" below). Should
I be concerned about the strobe unit emitting noise that would in turn
cause pulsations w/n the auto-pilot servo?
The strobe power supply was installed early on without the pitch servo
in mind. Build and learn...
I have routed no wiring yet.
Thanks!

| Subject: | First choice alternator decision |
Gentleman,
This topic was touched on earlier but I'm still not sure which route is
best regarding the primary alternator for my RV-7. I am interested in
the best quality unit that will also coincide nicely with the AEC system
designs (particulary Z-13/8). The options are as follows:
--Plane Power 60A alternator with OV protection and internal
regulation, or
--B&C L-60 matched up with an LR3C-14.
This will be an all electric IFR plane with one battery and SD-8 aux
alternator.
Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated.
Thanks!

There are no effects emanating from the strobe supply
that put the servo system at risk.

A pair of S700-1-3 switches will do fine for both the pair
of mags and for the final configuration.

Both products have good field histories and perform
as advertised. Your choice.

| Subject: | First choice alternator decision |
Bob,
I noticed in some of your drawings that there are panel mount breakers
shown for the main alternator as well as the aux alternator. Is this
preferred as compared to fuses? Obviously the breaker grants you at
least an attempt to reset in flight...
I am paralleling Z-13 with my design. Thanks!
Wade Roe
