| Subject: | Fund Raiser List of Contributors - Please Make A Contribution |
Today!
Each year at the end of the List Fund Raiser, I post a message acknowledging everyone
that so generously made a Contribution to support the Lists. Its sort of
my way of publicly thanking everyone that took a minute to show their appreciation
for the Lists.
Won't you take a moment and assure that your name is on that List of Contributors
(LOC)? As a number of members have pointed out over the years, the List seems
at least - if not a whole lot more - valuable as a building/flying/recreating/entertainment
tool as your typical magazine subscription!
Please take minute and assure that your name is on this year's LOC! Show others
that you appreciate the Lists. Making a Contribution to support the Lists is
fast and easy using your Credit card or Paypal on the Secure Web Site:
http://www.matronics.com/contribution
or by dropping a personal check in the mail to:
Matt Dralle / Matronics
PO Box 347
Livermore CA 94551-0347
I would like to thank everyone that has so generously made a Contribution thus
far in this year's List Fund Raiser! Remember that its YOUR support that keeps
these Lists going and improving! Don't forget to include a little comment about
how the Lists have helped you!
Best regards,
Matt Dralle

Bob, You may want to take a look at the flap controller we sell at TCW
Technologies. It is a bit different than those with pre-set positions.
Our flap controller allows pilot and co-pilot flap switches and also
provides Vfe protection. The controller is connected to an airspeed switch
and prevent you from deploying the flaps above a preset airspeed. All the
details our on our web site: www.tcwtech.com. Follow the link for Aviation
Products and then click on Intelligent Flap Controller.
Thanks,

| Subject: | Zulu headset using lemo plug |
Im still waffling on trading up from my 30 3g's to zulu, but if I do, Im
very interested in the lemo plug option for using ships power. Anyone on
here have that setup? If so, did you need to branch off witha separate
fuse, or just parallel into, say the fused 12 volt source for the
garmin 296 or simular? Charlie H

Let me try this again.
I am looking for a flap position controller.
I know that Vans sells one, but I was wondering if there were others out in the

Hi Bob,
Nice to see your getting it built. Go to www.aircraftextras.com
and see that they have several neat things for your bird. I bought
several things. Mine is now flying and its great. I bought Van's unit
and it works great. AircraftExtras has a simpler to install unit and I
understand it works well.

| Subject: | RV/Rocket Steering Link |
I am considering replacing the Van's tail wheel steering chains in my RV6 with
an "RV/Rocket Steering Link".
Please, I would appreciate any advice from the listers.
I'm specially concerned about landing performance under strong cross winds and
maintenance issues.
Thank you

Gabe, I've been using the Rocket link for several years on my RV-6. You
should not have any operational or maintenance issues with the link. It
handles pretty much like a properly adjusted set of chains, just looks
nicer and faster. :-)

>From the other side.
I have ~800 hours on my steering link.
It failed 2 weeks ago.
I went to chains with the intention of getting my link fixed and using
the
chains to get by. The chains will stay. I feel the chains have a superi
or
feel. Soft, relaxing feel compared to the link. It looks like Im loosin
g 5
knots with those air grabbing, speed robbing chains, but Im surely not.
My tail is about 20lbs heavier than the average RV and takes additional
abuse with the crummy short fields I have to crash land into in order f
or
my buds to feed me.
Best,
Mike,

RV-6 / 6a kits for sale.
Empennage: Complete except for fiberglass tips. Includes electric elevator
trim kit. All parts are alodined and primed with Marhyde primer.
Wings & Phlogiston Spar: Both skeletons fully assembled. Top skins
riveted. Both tanks are complete and sealed. Flaps and ailerons complete,
but not fitted. Includes electric aileron trim kit. All parts are alodined
and primed with Deft epoxy primer (Mil-P-23377G).
Both kits are the pre-punched versions purchased in 1997 & 1998 by myself.
Construction is excellent. Preview plans and Orndorff videos are included
for both kits.
Detailed photos are available upon request.
Must sell. The first $3750 takes it all. Buyer arranges transportation.
If all items were purchased separately the price would be more than $6500
for the unassembled kits.

One of the builders came up with a
nice tail wheel spring set up that works so well VAN'S sells them in the
parts catalog now. I have about 500 hours using them on my RV6 and I am
really satisfied with them. The part number in the catalog is U TAIL
LYNX.
