Subject: | Spinner mounting problem. |
--> RV-List message posted by: PGLong@aol.com
Thought I would run by those in the know a problem I'm having installing the
spinner. Seems at the 4-3/8" wood prop thickness is to much for proper
installation. I can get the spinner on but it is stressed and so are the spinner
plates. Even bowed slightly. It would fit in a relaxed state if I did the
following. The front spinner plate needs to be about .100" closer to the back
spinner plate. The only way I can figure to do this is to thin the thickness of
the
prop hub by removing from the front portion of the prop where the spinner
plate mounts by .100". I'm considering using a pin router just to do the surface
on the front of the hub. This would keep the surface parallel to the rear and
not cause any wobble. The front spinner plate is about 8.5" diameter. I would
then round off the routed portion that extends to the blades so there would be
no 90 degree angle, just a smooth return to full thickness. What are your
comments about this method I'm considering? Mentioned this to Ed Sterba and he
thought it would be an acceptable fix. Anyone else have a problem like this?
Thanks for your input.

Subject: | Re: Elevator trim |
--> RV-List message posted by: "DAVID REEL" <dreel@cox.net>
Pitch sensitivity to elevator movements is not related to whether the elevator
rests in trail with respect to the horizontal stabilizer at some speed, say cruise.
As the center of lift moves closer to the center of mass, the plane will
have more and more pitch sensitivity until it becomes unstable when the center
of lift moves ahead of the center of mass. The plane you are building sounds
like it will have a rearward center of mass and hence have higher pitch sensitivity
in all flight coditions. So you are unlikely to run out of trim or elevator
authority. In fact, I'd worry more about suceptability to overstressing
the airplane at high speed from your own control stick movement. But it's
also true that you'll experience less 'pitch stability drag' because your airplane
is less stable with a rearward CG so less corrective down force is required
from the HS-elevator combination. Of course, when the elevator is in trail
at any flight condition, the corrective force is being most efficiently generated
so there is a drag reduction of secondary magnitude.

Can you easily adjust the altimeter? I noticed a small screw next to the
pressure adjustment knob, unscrewed it and it does not appear to be anything in
there to adjust. I know on a VSI there is a small adjustment, just wondering if
there is any adjustment on the altimeter.
Blah, blah, blah, I don't need to be spammed, I know they are adjusted at the
factory, I know they can be off at one altitude and very accurate at others,
and I even have a the calibration sheet for my altimeter. Just wonding if
they can be adjusted or not. Thanks

the screw you are talking about is used by the instrument shop to adjust the
altimeter to the correct baro setting and should only be adjusted so far if my
failing memory is serving me ok. best to talk to an instrument shop about it.
just what is it that you need to adjust? is your a/c certified ifr? if so and
you adjust the screw it will invaladate the cert and it can be screwed up. be
careful out their. tom kimsey warner robins,ga

I know many pilots flying behind a Lycoming feel that shock cooling isn't a
big issue, but for those with a Grand Rapids EIS4000 engine monitor, what
maximum CHT Change Rate (degrees F/minute) did you program for the shock
cooling alarm?
I don't want to abuse my IO-320 but I also don't want to see too many
inadvertent alarms.

One backs off the screw just above and to the left of the setting knob until
it can be gently raised to permit the release of setting knob. You then pull
out on the adjusting knob to dis-engage the hands from the window indicator.
The lock screw has a very large head but a very small shank that lifts out a
locking pin. Do not over tighten as it is brass and all that has to happen
is for the head to be in the recess to lock the pin. Our flying club had to
buy a new altimeter when the tech broke the screw.

I had the same problem, but the distances was more like a 1/4", I ordered
every spinner front plate that Vans makes, non worked. I talked to Vans
about this and their response was that all prop makers were supposed to
standardize their prop thickness. And of course, I was the only person who
ever had this problem!
I tried numerous fixes. The one that worked, was a cut down front
plate. I cut off the flange and then fiberglassed a new fiberglass flange
onto it. This fit perfectly, and I have not had any problems since. Best
of all no wobble.
Personally, I would not do surgery on the prop.

Set the altemeterto field elevation
Turn the screw out far enough to clear the face of the insturment
Slide it away from the knob, Wiggle as required, turn it in to hold it in
place
Pull the Knob out to the stop
Turn the Knob to adjust only the Kolsmans window to the altemeter setting
Slide the screw back to it's original position and secure it

Not having much luck finding an -3 or -4 someone will

probably be in the Scottsdale, AZ area soon, is there
anyone in that area willing to let me see how
comfortably my slim 6'2" frame fits?
Also maybe in FXE area?

Just ran into the same problem while retrofitting my -4 with a new prop.
My solution (after trashing a new -4 spinner & a couple of front bulkheads) was
to grab my -8 spinner off the shelf and use it. It fit perfectly with w 4 3/8"
hub. The larger -8 spinner actually looks good on the -4. I always thought
the -4 spinner was a tad small on the big end.

I have dropped flour bombs from my RV-4 by tying a cord(Nylon or such) to
something on the right side near the panel. Lead the cord out under the canopy
rail next to the panel,around the bomb and back inside. Secure the end of the
cord so you can release it at the proper time. Then Practice,practice,practice
to get the timing right.
I have also dropped a roll of toilet tissue this way for ribbon cutting

I have one that needs adjustment also. But mine is off by 900 feet.
That's why I like my GPS.

Subject: | Party time at Slobovia Outernational Airport!! |
--> RV-List message posted by: "Brian Kraut" <brian.kraut@engalt.com>
On radio controlled plane contests we used a container that was rubber
banded on the top of the plane and did a roll or a half loop to drop the
bomb. You could use a bucket duct taped to the top of the fusalage and a 5
pound flour bag. That would make for a good challenge!

Well Tom, I'm really not supposed to talk about it, but you know those
new rules about not flying over nuclear power plants? OOPS... Already
said too much.
I've got a buddy who could lay down a perfect line of water balloon hits
from his C-140 using a pvc pipe bomb bay.
Think outside the cabin...er....box.

There are disadvantages to that technique when your airboss's day job is
FAA air traffic controller.
