    From: "Condon, Philip M." <pcondon@mitre.org>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Condon, Philip M." <pcondon@mitre.org> Am I right in the math ? With your new reduction unit, your test run from your list at (prop rpm) of 2700 would be almost 7000 RPM at the engine (crank RPM) ??? Even at 2300 prop rpm that's almost 5900 engine RPM. Call me old fashion, but isn't this a little fast to spin the engine for such a long period of time? On my stick shift Saab or wife's Subaru we shift at 2400 to 3400 rpm and cruse at 1900 to 2400 RPM (80 MPH on I-95). I can't even imagine spinning a Subaru, or any other engine at 7000 RPM.

    From: "Condon, Philip M." <pcondon@mitre.org>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "Condon, Philip M." <pcondon@mitre.org> I recall the NTSB and EAA stated that the primary cause of Steve's crash was a improper joint/overlap of the LE wing fabric that unraveled or lifted and pealed back the seam/overlap of fabric on the LE in flight.

Possibly not. I recall being taught in university that the most common failure due to overspeed is the horizontal stabilizer or elevator, followed shortly by the wings. As your (indicated :) airspeed increases, the nose-down pitching moment on the wing also increases... Which requires an increase in the down-force generated by the horizontal stab/elevator to balance it. It's apparently not uncommon for either the elevator or the whole horizontal stab to fail as someone tries to pull out of an oversped dive. When that happens, without that downforce on the tail the plane will instantly pitch nose down, which at that high speed means a failure of the wings due to sudden, high, negative G. My recollection is that this was the failure mode of Steve Whittman's tailwind when he died, but my memory could be fuzzy about that. -Rob

( It's a gas engine not a electric engine ) Sounds like you are really lugging your engine! :-) Here's an example of what the Subaru can do: http://www.subaru-global.com/about/history/1989-001.html This describes the Subaru Legacy breaking the 100,000 km world speed record. Their average speed was over 223km/h. This includes pit stops for driver changes, tire changes, and fuel, so the speed on the track was higher. The average RPM was probably over 6000, if this car is geared anything like my Subaru Forester. Total time was over 400 hours, and all three cars that started broke the previous record.

    Subject: Subaru 6900 RPM in a RV - WTF
    From: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@sausen.net>
    --> RV-List message posted by: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@sausen.net> This is a concern that many have raised with the new re-drive gearing. He is just now getting ready to ship the engines with this configuration so there is no data yet on running it at 6900RPM. He also only seems to advocate that setting on the much larger RV-10. Of course all the HP numbers are calculated only. No dyno time to verify.

( It's a gas engine not a electric engine ) Just so the Mazda rotary does not get lumped in with the Subaru, I'll add that at least the rotary is meant to spin that fast. My engine RPM stays between 5500 and 6500 with a 2.17:1 reduction drive. Some guys have bigger gear ratios that allow their engines to turn at over 7000. However, it is only the e-shaft that is turning that fast - and it is more or less just a straight piece of steel. The rotors are only turning at 1/3 the e-shaft speed.

For the money you pay I would hope the later systems are providing a whole lot more info., but I wonder? My only data point is that I have flown with the non audio D10 system and it appeared to give a very repeatable forecast of the stall. Thanks, Steve.

    Subject: BLUE MOUNTAIN AUTOPILOT INSTALLATION
    --> RV-List message posted by: Bruno <rv4@videotron.ca> Hello Listers Happy Holidays to the RV Community. My question: Are there any here on the list who has installed a BMA Autopilot in an RV-4? I have an EFIS LITE G3 in my -4 and I'm contemplating the option of an autopilot. How hard was it to install the servos and where did you install them? Are you satisfied with the performance vs. the price of the unit? If you have any pictures of your installation it will be appreciated. Also if there is anyone with a TRIO autopilot in an RV-4, I would like to know your feelings regarding the performance of this autopilot and ease of installation? Thank you Bruno Dionne RV-4 C-GDBH <mailto:Rv4@videotron.ca> Rv4@videotron.ca

    Subject: AOA sensor mounting question
    --> RV-List message posted by: RKAlex123@aol.com A question for those of you that have installed an Angle of Attack indicator. The upper wing sensor has a water separator which requires access from below to drain any accumulated water. Did you just drill an access hole in the lower wing to reach this drain with an extension wire? Or is water draining needed so infrequently that using an access panel or wingtip removal to reach the drain sufficient? There is no clear guidance in the instructions from Advanced. Appreciate any advise. Bob Alexander RV7

    --> RV-List message posted by: Richard Tasker <retasker@optonline.net> I would hardly say there is no clear guidance. The user manual says to add several steps to your checklist. Among those is the statement to drain the AOA water separator reservoir. I would suspect, since the opening is on the top of the wing, that you could expect to get some water in there any time it rains, although I do not have my RV9A completed yet. Dick Tasker.

    Subject: Re: AOA sensor mounting question
    --> RV-List message posted by: Rick Galati <rick6a@yahoo.com> Bob, Frankly, I'm surprised that you can account for neither parts or instructions to install the moisture drain. Its been a few years since I installed a PSS Sport AOA which has since been bought out by Advanced. At the time, my "A" kit came with a sort of spring loaded device that protrudes slightly from the lower wing surface and you merely depress it as you would any fuel drain to release (possible) accumulated moisture. Rick Galati RV-6A "Darla" A question for those of you that have installed an Angle of Attack indicator. The upper wing sensor has a water separator which requires access from below to drain any accumulated water. Did you just drill an access hole in the lower wing to reach this drain with an extension wire? Or is water draining needed so infrequently that using an access panel or wingtip removal to reach the drain sufficient? There is no clear guidance in the instructions from Advanced. Appreciate any advise. Bob Alexander RV7

    --> RV-List message posted by: "Greg@itmack" <greg@itmack.com> Bob, I drilled a hole underneath and plan to use a piece of plastic as a guide for the wire probe. Just hold the guide under the wing and a mark on the plastic to orientate it and pass the probe through it. Others glue the guide inside the wing. I haven't flown yet and unless I fly through rain or leave it out in the rain. I doubt it will ever collect water.

I like the rumble of the Lycoming, and I regularly get 6.3 US gallons per hr fuel burn at 55-60% power, so I can't complain about the economy over the past 200 hours either. FWIW Martin in Oz

    --> RV-List message posted by: Tedd McHenry <tedd@vansairforce.org> > The H-6 is a real smooth engine, but not sure about 7000 rpm in cruise. As so often happens, this Subaru-RPM issue is in a spiral dive and needs to be brought under control by the application of facts. Eggenfellner's web site lists 5900 RPM as maximum climb and 4600 RPM as cruise. I haven't worked it out for the newer Eggenfellner engine, but for the previous, 2.5-litre engine 4600 RPM would give approximately the same piston speed as a Lycoming has at 2600 RPM.
