Subject: | -8 Battery Location . where too put it ? |
There are several discussions in the archives.
There is no question that with your setup you will want the battery in
the back under the rear baggage deck with this setup you have below.
Once you choose the io-360, your in the back.
Your weight is of no consequence.

Subject: | -8 Battery Location . where too put it ? |
Ditto on my 8 IO360 + MT CS. Real issue is CG. There are several things
you
can put in the back: Battery, external power source, ELT and Strobe
Power
supply (I have three, one for the tail strobe and one at each wing
tip.).
Battery is aft as per Vans=92s location. External Power Source is right
next
to it.
Tail strobe power supply is between bulkheads 805 and 806 (near 806)
which
makes it further back than the battery.
ELT is undecided ' I will probably put it on the shelf of the rear
baggage
compartment to make it easily accessible if needed.
I went for this set up following long discussions. If I end up tail
heavy I
can always move both the ELT and the Tail Strobe Power source to the
forward
baggage compartment. There is also the tie down pegs and the spares and
tools I=92ll be carrying along which will help me adjust CG when the
time
comes.

Dan,
If you are saying that it gets hotter than that, I agree. There is quite a
bit of engine heat that accumulates behind the baffle from the exhaust and oil
sump. I also believe the curves -- without engine heat.
I have a very simple GPS antenna installation. The Garmin 295 is mounted in
the panel. A 6 inch length of RG-400 goes to a BNC bulkhead connector on the
glareshield (sliding canopy). The portable antenna from the 295 then sits on
the topside of the connector. It has always gotten good reception.

I installed Tru Trak's ADI Pilot II last fall and have loved each time I

Subject: | Re deburing before dimpling |
I suspect that punching leaves more stress in the aluminum than drilling.
The match drilling and deburring relieves that stress prior to dimpling
(which probably leaves more stress).
So, for me, drill, deburr is still the way to go. Even with that, matched
hole saves a ton of time.

It would be really, really, interesting to hear what his reasons were for
that instruction. Especially if he's referring to metalworking when you
have no pre-punched hole to work with. Drilling a hole from scratch in a
piece of sheet aluminum is almost guaranteed to leave a burr.
I found when working on the Vertical Stab that the pre-punched holes didn't
leave much if any burr when they were drilled out, but the ribs and forward
spar (which weren't pre-punched on my early -7 kit) left a measurable burr
when the holes were drilled.
I deburred both before dimpling by running a scotchbrite pad down the
surfaces. It smoothed off all the holes quite nicely, with very little
concern of accidentally "chamfering" the holes.

Hi all,
I have a VM1000 in my RV-6 but do not have any OAT or CAT. I would like to
add at least the OAT to my plane. Is there a simple probe/ gauge system I
can get anybody knows of? I thought I could add a probe to my VM1000 but
don't see anything on the web site. It is included in the newer VM1000C but
looks like a separate gauge on the earlier one like mine.

The VM1000C may fit in the same hole - but....
If you have mounted something above your standard VM1000, the 'C' may not fit because
of space requirements above and behind (forward) the panel.
This is one of the questions that I have been trying to get answered as I was considering
a re-fit to get some of the new features.
Unfortunately, I first asked my question of them right before they became part
of JPI. They still haven't answered me.
And I'm not sure I wanna give JPI any of my money anyway

Same here, Phil. I have a compass up there anyway, so I can't even see the

Dan, I was referring to the heat after engine shutdown. As I reread my post
I see that that could be interpreted as meaning while flying. I didn't mean
that.

Subject: | Outside Air Temp add on |
The VM1000C uses different sensors, etc as they wire directly to the dash
display. The previous VM1000 wires to a DPU with a ribbon cable to the
dash. This may make the upgrade cost prohibitive. Interestingly, the DPU
has inputs spots on the connectors for OAT and CAT. I fail to understand
why if there is no provision in the display for them.
VMS has told me they do not have any stock for the separate gauges which

on what may happen with VMS as I have invested in their product. If I can't

I've been trying to contact safeair1 for the past few months regarding extended
range fuel tanks they offer for RV's, but have so far been unsucessful. Has anybody
dealt with them, or does anyone know if they're still in business? Their
web site is still up and running, and an answering machine is connected to their
phone line, but I've not gotten any response from them. Thanks for any assistance.

Subject: | Re: GPS Antenna Under Cowl |
I've long since deleted the original message on this subject but it was
my impression that the antenna in question was the Garmin GPS *XM*
antenna which is a different animal than the actual GPS antenna. I
could be wrong.
BTW, I just installed my 496 and it only takes one flight while looking
at the weather around you in real time to get hooked. I'd feel naked
without it now.
Why didn't the FAA just buy a satellite channel for weather instead of
that silly, expensive, incomplete ground based system they decided on?
Rhetorical question I guess. They love ground based systems for "turf
reasons".

Subject: | Re: -8 Battery Location . where too put it ? |
Ditto on what Mike (Kahuna) says except one thing... it actually DOES
matter how much you weigh. Surprisingly I ran some W&B spreadsheet
numbers for a buddy of mine who weighs 245 while I weigh 170.
Interestingly we found that he will never experience the fwd CG that I
do and therefore he put his battery just behind the firewall. I have
flown several RV-8s and trust me, you want it in the back if you are 170
lbs.

There are several discussions in the archives.
There is no question that with your setup you will want the battery in
the back under the rear baggage deck with this setup you have below.
Once you choose the io-360, your in the back.
Your weight is of no consequence.
Best,
Mike

Subject: | GPS antenna under cowl |
Not sure about the fragility of your chosen antenna, but I installed the factory
antenna puck from my Bendix-King KMD-150 about 1 inch under the cowling, center
mounted, just behind the baffels, on a supported aluminum plate. No problems
in 334 hours and I have lost signal only once in a heavy overcast. The GPS
locks on after startup in about 40 seconds.
Don't even think about mounting it on top of the glare shield - you will get the
reflection in the windshield. FWIW.

Subject: | Re: Holes under horizonal stab |
Make them the same way you made the strips that cover the gap between your
wing and fuselage:
Use an offset tracing tool to transfer the profile of the HS to the aluminum
strips. Just tape the strips immediately below the HS, then measure the
distance (call it "X") from the leading edge of the HS down to the aluminum
strips. Make an aluminum spacer which will hold a sharpie X inches from
whatever the spacer is touching. Use this combination up against the HS to
transfer its shape to the aluminum strips. Pull the strips loose, trim to
shape, and you're done. You may want to try it on a piece of cardboard
first just to make sure your technique is good...
By the way, there is no reason to drill and tap the holes for those strips.
Why not just pop rivet the strips to the airframe. Simpler, faster, and
there is no reason to ever remove the strips.

I just installed the F-635 bellcrank,
that one that's mounted mid-fuse. The instructions say there should
be no side to side movement. My spacers fit snug and the washers are
tight against the bearing, but if you hold the crank by the long
portion, you get a small amount of movement in the bearing itself.
I posted on Vansairforce.net, but only
got one response. Ken Scott at Vans says it will "probably" be OK. I
hate that word. Before I order any new parts, I want to make sure
that my bearing is bad or not. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Subject: | Outside Air Temp add on |
The VM1000c is a major upgrade to the VM1000. Some of the improvements are:
- Color LCD
- Self Contained (No DPU)
- higher quality sensors - Thermocouples throughout vs RTD's.
- Expansion capabilities through EC100, voice, 90 MIPS CPU.
The current unit is about the same size as the prior VM1000 display - about
2.5" deep and fits the same hole.

Subject: | -8 Battery Location . where too put it ? |
We went with IO390 forward battery. But we are using ACI light prop and we
have an aux battery aft. We also put a 33' O2 tank aft. That works out for
great balance for us.
In general, if only one battery and IO360, you pretty much have to aft
mount. A friend put his in the forward baggage area, but he is still
pushing forward CG. Adding more weight (aux battery, O2) give more freedom.
We wanted the battery front to reduce cable weight and voltage drop durning
cranking. It is also much easier to service. Our 7 AH emergency battery is
probably going aft, but may be under pilot seat.
