OH, yes. I wouldn't curse anyone with a ride back there with their feet flat
on the original floor. I have flown in the back of several -4s and, of
course, found the heel cups a must-do. Mine are more heel PANS with lots of
room for a whole foot, water bottle, whatever happens to be there at the
time. ALSO: -4 builders: trim the FRONT seat "pleats" Down a little so they
don't rub on legs and put an extra triangle of aluminum in the area just
under the roll-over structure so knees don't get hung up in there. I have
spent a good deal of time in the back seat of Suzie Q to make sure it is
comfortable so my PIB (that's PRINCESS in back) is comfortable. She loves it
back there.

No way I could hate a Rocket. Except my cheeks hurting from smiling so much.
I'd figure out something.
>Where do you put your arms in turbulence ??
I have an extended "shelf" that my left arm can rest on when on the throttle
making for a very steady, sensitive hand there, much needed in formation
flying and bouncing around flying. (Photo Share available on request.) I'm
just wide enough to have to lean one way or another to be nestled against
the sides of the -4 but find it secure rather than snug or tight.

Tim,
I see you've already got your answer but just thought I'd
throw this in. I know the 6's and 7's are different and this may have
nothing to do with a 6. On my 7, the screws for the wing root fairing
replaced existing rivets rather than fitting between rivets. Drilled out
rivets, enlarged hole, drilled for plate nut rivets, ctsk. everything and
rivet plate nut. Worked well.

--> RV-List message posted by: "Shirley Harding" <ShirleyH@oceanbroadband.net>
Listers, I'm running a Superior XP O 360 with a Skytech lightweight starter
(supplied as a package by Superior). After only 7 hours, I noticed the ring
gear was damaged. Replaced the ring gear, but after two subsequent starts,
observed chips on the new gear. I borrowed another Skytech starter and
installed that - it meshed a little better than mine but didn't engage
smoothly - they appear to be under-engaging. I've installed an old
heavyweight Bendix temporarily - that seems to work fine - but has any one
else had problems with the Skytech/Superior combination?

Shirley, a friend of mine recently had the same problem with his F1 Rocket
(skytec starter). I loaned him the B&C starter off my F1. It meshed better
with the ring gear it only went 1/8" or so deep into the ring gear when the
bendix was engaged with the Skytec. The skytec starter wouldn't spin the
motor over compression very well (stock compression), but the B&C spun it
over no problem. When he called Skytec about his starter woes they
initially tried to blame it on the battery, the cable, solenoid etc. but the
conversation quickly changed direction once he told them he borrowed a B&C
to replace the skytec and had no problems. They then offered a
trade-in/upgrade+$$ on the new inline high-torque starter. The new starter
works much better, and works as well as the B&C, if not maybe a little
better. It also meshes with the ring gear fully, which the original skytec
starter didn't.

Shirley,
Is the damage to the back side of the ring gear teeth? If so this is
typical of the starter remaining engaged after a start. Most likely
cause is the back EMF from the PM motor itself continuing to hold the
solenoid in.
You will also hear a ringing sound from the ring gear (some irony here!)
immediately after the key is released.
If this is the case the fix is to electrically isolate the starter
solenoid from the motor (a short link on the starter needs to be
removed). Run a separate wire back to the key switch for the solenoid.
As soon as the start switch is released then the start contactor (relay)
and the starter solenoid will release allowing the gear to immediately
disengage.
There was an article in Rvator at some time.

Well, you're in for a treat. That starter is everything a prestolite
isn't .... reliable, no bendix, and light weight. Ya can't go wrong.
You'll have to get used to starting on the impulse mag (no problem if
your key swithc has a start position) because the SkyTec spins an engine
so fast that the std mag will fire. Yes, I have one and love it!
