Joe,
Thanks for the offer. And thank you to the guys who provided good
hints on where to look, and to Larry Bowen who also offered to send
me some from his private stash.
I'm going to run the various leads to ground, and Larry will send me
some if they don't pan out.

I have my disconnect switch as the pinky button on my infinity grip.
Since I have TruTrak for both axis, the disconnect works for both (the
pictorial pilot and the altrack are connected together). I do find it
useful, I use it all the time to disconnect. It will also connect the
pictorial pilot, but not the altrack., but I normally engage with the
buttons on the panel.

Since you can easily overpower the auto pilot(s) in an emergency, I would
suggest not adding complexity by putting one on the stick.

I have AP enagage/disengage on my infinity stick and use it almost
exclusively for my trutrak AP. When I flew with Alex D. in Dallas for
trans. training, he demonstrated that the stick switch will disengage the
AP immediately, while the knob on the AP has to be held in for 3 seconds
(?) to disengage. I prefer "right-now". Your AP may be different, but
this is why I did it on mine. Simple to do. No regrets.

Hi John,
Its drag reduction drag reduction to get the last bit of speed
or best economy. They (?) did a study during WWII on drag on fighters.
It was interesting on how much it effected the top speed. Covered each
item small or large as they removed or streamlined the items. Van's are
very good and I've thought about the fuel drain valves as a good drag
reduction point. The rudder cable exits also and the air entrance to the
cowling. There was an article in one of the magazines that followed two
"6's" as they did several things that got their top speeds up to around
205 mph or so. Not alot of things but each did a bit and they added up.

From memory, grounding one of the pins on the AP toggles engage/disengage.
The switch on the stick is momentary. See the installation diagrams for

Thanks to all the replies on the rudder forward edge rolling. I didn't
worry about the few small spaces and as a result finished the rudder
last night. May seem strange but this is the first section finished.
Short story, I messed up a skin on the VS and had to reorder, so I went
on to the rudder. Now I will go back to the VS and finish it up. It is
all dimpled and primed. Time to put the puzzle back together.. Did
everyone else get that big sigh of relief after a section was complete.
Makes me feel like I can really do this.
Rick Leach
Rudder done, vs maybe this weekend.

Doug,
I think this is who you are looking for: http://www.approach-systems.com/
I understand John Stark avionics will now wire avionics that you buy from
them for the Approach hub if you want.

Fellow Listers:
There is a company I believe in Salt Lake that was producing plug and play
avionics wiring harnesses. I can't recall their name. Do any of you know
who I am trying to track down?
Thanks

It's true you should be able to overpower an autopilot servo, more often the
control stick/wheel autopilot switch function is used for "control wheel
steering". The switch is held in with the autopilot engaged, while holding
the switch the airplane is maneuvered to a new attitude. When the switch is
released the autopilot maintains the new attitude. The function is very
similar to clicking the speed control accelerate or coast button on your
cars speed control. Some autopilots may not support this function. There
are usually three ways to turn off or at least disconnect an autopilot,
power switch, engagement switch, and circuit breaker. All methods of
disconnect should be memorized.

| Subject: | Wing Assembly Question??? |
(not processed: message from valid local sender)
--> RV-List message posted by: "Matt Johnson" <matt@n559rv.com>
I am at the step where I rivet the wing skins on, the instructions tell me to put
the fuel tanks on and put the screws in every other hole and put bolts in have
th z-
braces attached to the spar... is this the final assembly of the tanks on the wing
or do I have to remove them later? if this is the final assembly, I would
rather put all
the bolts in the z-braces so I am not trying to do it later through the access
holes in the bottom of the wing. I also would like to torque the bolts to their
final torque if I
know they are not coming off again...
P.S. It seems like if you were to take them out and put them back in they would
not fit as snug and that would be bad...
Please respond asap if you can, thanks.
- Matt

I used all of the bolts, torqued 'em, and my tanks haven't been off since.
Pretty sure they make mention of the option of removing the tanks later when
mating the wings to the fuselage, in order to make room to stand in front of
the spar. I imagine that does make wing mating slightly easier, but it's
not like it's that difficult with the tanks ON.
I personally think this may have made more of a difference back when a
monkey *couldn't* mate a set of RV wings. With the match drilled
spars/center sections these days, wing mating is a non-event (although still
a notable milestone you should be proud of...not trying to shoot down
anybody's exciting moment!).

Can anybody doing an RV7 slider give me an estimate on how many times you
need to install, uninstall, bend; install, uninstall, bend; install, uninstall,
bend; install, uninstall, bend; install, uninstall, bend; install the damn
thing before you get it right?
I mean, if I'm already up 500 cycles, am I half way there? One third? One
quarter?
Oh PLEASE, tell me I'm almost done!

I won't claim it was fun on my 6 slider.
It did, however, force me to consider that despite my
obsessive-compulsive nature and "need" for "no-shim or washer alignment"
that the real goal was to fly this plane sometime in my lifetime.
My advice is to get close and move on. Had I followed my own advice I
would be much closer to first flight today. :-)
