| Subject: | Re: Improvements to "Hinged" wingtip installation] |
Forwarded to both RV and RV-10 lists!
I saw and RV recently that had screws holding ALL of the tips. It was
really done nice, but the first thought that flitted through my brain
..... how much extra weight from screws and nutplates and how much extra
time spent installing them?
I'm leaning to the carbinge for the wing tips, but the rest will be
attached with pulled rivets like the plans call for.

Hi Linn- Here's a direct link to the section of my Expercraft website
detailing the wingtip installation. It is a single entry with
subsequent entries accessed by clicking on the "Next Entry>>" link at
the top of the page.
Oddly, I am replying to your post to the RV-list but only your address
appears in my "To" window (borrowed Mac!) so if you'd like to forward
this to the RV-list feel free to do so!
Any questionds, gimme a holler...

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 $3500 takes it all. Buyer arranges transportation.
If all items were purchased separately the price would be more than $6500
for the unassembled kits.

I kept waiting for it to drop. And waiting...
Tip tanks look easier, no drag penalty. My $ .02
