Having built before I can give you a perspective.
Building is truly half the fun. Flying is great but the build ends
up being something you enjoy. When the DAR signed off my
first project he said he would see me again. He was right. When
you find the time in your life to build and the project is done there is
a hole that needs to be filled and watching TV is not the answer.
So with all this money tied up in a plane some need to sell one to
move onto the next. Some have waited for the RV-10, some decide
they want a side by side, some feel they want to try a tandem.
But the fact remains that this is a learning process and about the
time you are done you are sure you could do better.
I just sold my beloved champ to fund the RV-8........the QB is on
the roadway truck. I will fly my RV-4 (someone else's build) until
the 8 is done. If Vans has the Sport pilot (LSA) plane designed by then I
sell the -4 and start again. When the LSA is done the -8 will be sold.
Some have a plan........others needs change........Some have life changes.
Some never build and miss the best part.

The filter sits inside the end of the fiberglass intake. It is sandwiched
between the fiberglass intake and the left baffle floor. You make two
brackets to bolt it up to the baffle floor.

You might want to ask about a long-term warranty, say 10 years or more.
I can't say exactly what your material is, but I had a recent experience
with synthetic leather that you might find interesting.
I have a set of the Oregon Aero Soft Seal headset earcup cushions on my
David Clarks, purchased about 12 years ago when they first came out. I
stopped flying soon after, and the headset went into its bag and got put in
the attic. During its time up there, it got exposed to extremes of
temperature, just like your airplane will.
These pads are covered in synthetic leather that is very supple and
comfortable, and that I thought was very durable.
A couple of weeks ago, inspired by SpaceShip One, I started seriously
considering flying again. So I hunted up the two most important things: My
logbook with my license inside, and my headset.
To my dismay, I found the "leather" surface to be crumbly and flaking off,
exposing the cloth backing. It was so bad that if I put the headset on, it
would leave little flakes of the stuff all over the sides of my head.
Initially I suspected exposure to sweat and body oils. However, after
removing the cushions I found I could rub the "leather" off of its backing
even on the tucked-away hidden inner surfaces that never came close to my
skin. I'm guessing it's a straight age- and long-term oxidation-related
issue. Can't be UV, because the headset was in its bag.
I now have a pair of very comfortable, CLOTH covered ear seals.
For all I know your material might be different and resistant to this sort
of thing.
PS: The mic cover (ordinary foam) also crumbled to dust. The rest of the
headset appears to be fine, including the original Oregon Aero Soft Top wool
cushion (in it's way-cool saddle backing/natural wool color).

Speculation: Keep in mind I am building a 7 with the main feature being
side by side seating experience.

No intent to start a 'cold' war here, but the 8s are front and back seating.
With the side by side RVs, you at least have someone to hold your hand when
you get cold while flying in winter weather. I think most of them -- that
you call it are unloading -- are looking for comfort rather than higher
performance and being cold alone up front. Maybe they have done their all
alone thing and are moving on to nurse-guided wheel chairs and things as
such. Some, but not all, of us do get a bit older every day. Maybe on the
other hand, the higher cost of petro is part of it. Insurance is not going
down either. Hanger fees, taxes, more deer need to be scared off the
runways before landing and more and more large birds. Flying is not a
undertaking for those without lots of spare $$. The economy is not perking.
AND,,,,,, did anyone realize we have an election coming in a couple days.
TV revenues will then be down. Then again -- Maybe they just want to stay
home and watch TV without all the political commercials. do not archive

When I had breakfast with Van two weeks ago I asked him this very
question. His answer was that they were waiting to see
what the final qualifications were going to be and what kind of demand
there was going to be. I am sure like all of the rest of his
designs that if there is a need he will fill it. :-)

Like I said, "I was curious". I am about done with the wings of my 8 right
now. I can relate because I already have the plans to a RV3 and will
probably use my RV8 as a money vehicle for the RV7 I would also like to
build. I too am in the build bug mode. It was just odd that all these 8's
started showing up on the market. Thank you for your insight to my question.

Its interesting to note that Van has resisted (in the early stages) several
models in his line-up. He originally was against a side-by-side as he
couldn't imagine why people would want it compared to a tandem - well, he
has sold more RV-6s than any other model. Same for the RV-10 - resisted a 4
seater for years. He reportedly was noted as stating that he didn't think
there would be much market for the LSA - because if there were that many
people who could not pass a Class III and wanted to fly they would be flying
motorized gliders, etc. Van is well noted for being conservative and its
hard to argue with his success in bring out models when the interest is
high.
I predict we will within the next year see/hear/rumors of Van's team
designing the LSA - in fact, I would bet money that some of his design staff
are already doodling on napkins (if not on the CAD) the LSA preliminary
design.
I can't wait

Nothing will be done in this area until the RV-10 is in full production and
that is complete.....It will be a clean piece of paper and is a couple years
away if at all. This was per Vans. They had said At Sun-N-Fun
they were waiting to see what the final qualifications were as another
poster (Jerry) just said but that did happen at Osh Kosh.......?
I really don't think it's a priority for them right now.
I didn't mean to start a rumor. This is a question they are
asked more than you may think. I feel the demand would surprise Vans.
For now I still have a medical.

Hi:
I have a leak on the line that go to the breaks, passenger side.
I am ready to install new line. The tubin I have is rigid one,
"parflex 1/4 O.D. x.62 wall 500 w.p.
Now the problem is, Ineed to buy new inserts. the brass ones, that go
to the brass connections, at the master cylinders, those I have already
from local Ace hardware store....
The plastic one, these, go at the end, of tubing going to the reservoir..
The problem, I cannot find these inserts; the ones at Spruce, are short, with
a little hat like, at one end...the old ones, were very similar to the brass
ones, that is they are long, and the end is just a small circular rim..
Where can I get these... I do not want to buy them from Van's...
personal reasons".
I have the ones from, Spruce, they are short,, but for the life
of me, I canot insert these little rascals... Yes I have tubing in boiling
water for about 5 minutes, no luck...
That is it...is there any suggestions from the experts...I am stuck
with this now...
Thanks for the suggestions or advice or alternative methods...

I'd recommend you scrap the nylon tube/ reservoir setup entirely and go
with the indivdual reservoirs which mount on the master cylinder.
Spruce sells them for about 20 bucks, and it gets rid of all the leaks.
Here's where I got the idea. His is for an -8 but the same thing can be
done to a 6.

--> RV-List message posted by: "LarryRobertHelming" <lhelming@sigecom.net>
I need help on an avionic problem. I have a Sandia SAE5-35 encoder and
Garmin 327 and 430. I have something wired wrong because the 430 is telling
me it is not receiving altitude information and the 327 is not displaying an
altitude. I have a question in to Sandia sales/support, but thought I would
take a shot at seeing if anyone has been down this road before.
The way I wired it is to feed the serial altitude data from Sandia in the
RS232 IN 1 channel of the 327. I configure that channel on the 327 as
Icarus. The RS232 IN 1 data is sent to the 430 using the 327's RS232 OUT
1 (configured as Icarus) connecting to the 430 by the GPS RS232 IN 1
channel. I configured this as Icarus. Feel free to contact me directly
if anyone has any ideas as I doubt if many have an interest in this
particular combination. Thanks.

Hi Tom,
If you have or can beg, borrow or buy a Dremel tool (hobby sized hi speed
grinder) with a package of their "cut off wheel no. 409" you should get the
job done quite well.
Drill 3/32 holes at each corners from the cockpit side. Then use the holes
on the outside to tape off the cut lines. Use the Dremel to cut the hole and
finish the edges with a fine grit Dremel sanding drum or hand fie file as
needed.

| Subject: | Help with Elevator and HS clearance... |
(not processed: message from valid local sender)
--> RV-List message posted by: "Matt Johnson" <matt@n559rv.com>
At the Van's recommended elevator clearance, my elevator is 1/16 away (maybe closer
in some spots) to the HS skin. I found very little on
this in the archives and was wondering if I did something wrong? With the -7 it
seems hard to do something wrong since the skin is pre-
drilled. I am afraid once I put paint on it it will rub. I used the vixen file
to open the gap more (it was actually hitting before) and now there
is 1/16" gap. Why hasnt anyone else experienced this? what is the gap that should
be between the elevator and the HS skin when at full
deflection? By the way, I have the hinge bolts at the recommended max. of 7/8".

Try "massaging" the curled leading edges inward towards the elevator spars.
You might have the profile of the elevator leading edges too
"pointy"...sticking forward too far. I'm having the same issue on my RV10.
Bearings are out as far as max allowed. Had to squish the radius down a lot
to get clearance.

--> RV-List message posted by: James H Nelson <rv9jim@juno.com>
Would anyone please give me the depth of the spar on the "9". I am
getting ready to pick up my QB kit wings and I am building the rack to
hold them. Has any one found the best spacing for the wings on the rack
so you can finish them (QB). The plans call for 24" between the leading
edge and the top. Is this a good dimension?

Listers,
You never can have too many clecoes.
I've reached a point where I will keep only a few.
I have 100 1/8" clecoes that I will sell for $25 and
50 3/32" for $12.50. Or the whole schmere for $35.
Please contact me off list.

Folks,
If I need to modify the wheel pants, do I need to use the same type of resin as
they are made of? If so, can anyone tell me how to determine whether mine are
epoxy or polyester? Thanks.

You can use epoxy to repair or modify parts that were built with epoxy or
polyester resin. You can't use polyester resin to repair epoxy parts,
although it is fine on polyester parts.
Most manufacturers use polyester because it is less expensive and cures
faster.

| Subject: | Angle valve IO-360 oil sump part # needed |
--> RV-List message posted by: Charlie Kuss <chaztuna@adelphia.net>
Listers,
Can anyone tell me the part numbers for the "tuned" induction oil sump &
intake tubes for the various angle valve IO-360s? I know that the C series
has a horizontally mounted servo, but it exits the rear. I "think" the
IO-360-A1A is a vertical (updraft) version. Are there any models (besides
the new IO-360-M1B) which have a forward, horizontal induction point?

Charlie,
I don't have the part numbers, but maybe I can help a little.
The IO-360-A1A has the front facing servo, not updraft. Van's assembly
manual chapter on engines spells this out, and it is also in the engine data sheet
posted on Dan Checkoway's website.
My engine was originally a -C1E6 which had the rear facing sump. It had
unmachined bosses on the front. I had the sump machined to install the servo on
the front, only to find that the rear hit the (RV-7A) nose gear part of the
engine mount. I was able to find a -A1A core and used the induction system from
it. The induction tubes set about 2 inches farther aft on the -C1E6 than on
the -A1A sump. I believe it will clear the engine mount on a tail dragger. If
it will work for you, and you want it, it could probably be made available to
you.

Bad news. The "C" sump won't work on the taildragger either without
modifying the mount, at least on a parallel valve IO-360. It's also
magnesium and costs big $$$ to add a boss for inverted oil. I had one on my
-6 and modified the mount but won't do it again. I plan to change to the
"A1A" sump on the Phoenix. That makes it essentially an IO-360-M1B.

Dan,
I seem to remember that another RV-8A builder ran into the same problem
with a converted C series sump. I just checked my photo library. Sure
enough, the C series sump has the intake plenum located directly under the
accessory cover. I have 3 photos of this problem. This will clear the tail
dragger motor mounts, but not the tricycle motor mounts. Thanks for the info.
