    Subject: Introduction - First Time Builder
    Hello James, A lot has been said on tools, I can't agree more. Deburing is very important - I found that the three sided hole deburing tool chatters a lot - get the chaterless kind, I believe it costs just 1 or 2$ more. I bought a rivet removal tool from ACS - useless, actually grinds down the sides of the base material, hence harmful. Removing rivets by hand is a technique you'll soon master. Just drill down the center of the rivet with a small diameter (careful as drill will wander), then drill with a larger diameter to clear the head. Snap off the head, re-drill with small diameter and punch out - comes off easy most of the time. Punches #30 and #40 as a minimum. Rivet shaver - very useful in places you mis-dimpled - particularly those flat head rivets which attach platenuts. Two 6" diameter ScotchBrite wheels - one coarse for grinding down, one fine for finishing off - I put them both on a small cheapo bench grinder. Small ScotchBrite wheels and pads - course and fine. Also get the disk ScotchBrite, 2" or larger - useful for certain types of work. V shaped deburing tool - very useful - as well as the hand held one.

    Subject: Priming the outside....
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "RV Builder (Michael Sausen)" <rvbuilder@Sausen.net> Personally, I'm leaving the external side of the skins partially protected with the vinyl that's on it. On the insides, I am Alodining all internal parts and then self-etch priming only the inside of the skins with Marhyde. For the Alodine I bought a 32 Gal Rubbermaid garbage can and filled it with about 20 gal of Alodine. I then use a cheap fish tank powerhead and a length of tubing to pump it into a plastic lined box for spars and oversized stuff ala Tim's method. It probably wouldn't be that much more difficult to do the skins, just bulky. Along the same lines I use a 38 gal garbage can for spraying down parts with metal prep that way I can reclaim it when done. Something else I've been wondering, if the primary component is phosphoric acid in these metal preps, I wonder if the concrete floor etch from HD or Lowes would do the exact same job for less? After all, it is nothing more than phosphoric acid. I just do know the concentrations. Michael -----Original Message-----

As far as tools go, most builders get either the Cleaveland or Avery (occasionally other brands too), RV tool kits. That gives you most of the basics. Beyond that there are many little things that make things easier, or are required in one way or another. Such as: Die Grinder Bench Grinder Fast air compressor (prefer Cast iron cylinders, non-oil free) Bandsaw Tabletop Beltsander Scotchbrite pad attachment for die grinder (cleaveland) 3/32" and 1/8" chucking reamer for nice holes Cogsdill Deburring tool (some people love them) Oops Rivets NAS1097AD4-3.5 OOPS RIVETS (LB) $17.20 NAS1097AD4-4 OOPS RIVETS (LB) $17.00 NAS1097AD4-5 OOPS RIVETS (LB) $15.00 NAS1097AD4-6 OOPS RIVETS (LB) $17.00 12" long drill bits in #40, #30, #12 sizes A spare 3/32" springback dimple-die set (yardstore.com) Circle cutter 1/8" offset rivet set Misc various rivet sets (try yardstore.com) Parker 37 degree rolo-flair flaring tool DEFINITELY get the no-hole thin/nose 4" squeezer yoke. DEFINITELY get the pneumatic squeezer (I can't see being without it) I bought mine with the longeron yoke. Also get the adjustable set holder for the squeezer. Get the 59010 Hex Adapter for deburring from Avery...get 2 or more Buy a couple of cordless rechargable screwdrivers. Buy a round and flat jewlers file set. You'll use about 700-750 total 3/32 clecos!!! About 250 1/8 clecos Buy extra drill bits, although the prepunched kits help them last A couple of boxes of scotchbrite pads (Auto body shop) various 180-600 grit tough automotive sandpaper Buy 2 pair of cleco pliers so your helpers have some too. Dremel tool with the fine sanding drum rolls. Small chop saw (some people like these...or. An air powered cutoff tool Drill press (use either/or drill press or bench grinder for deburring) Your other question is a hard one...tools NOT recommended??? I don't get it.....I didn't know there was a tool that could be bought by a man that wasn't recommended. ;) But seriously, there's not much you'll be told to get that you won't use at one point or the other. As for #2, QB or non-QB.... That's a really hard question. I spent just over 250hrs getting my tailcone done, and another 300 or so to get most of the wings done. The fuse and final assembly and panel and everything is a HUGE job though. People are guessing 1500-2000 hours to complete the kit. My best advice is that if cost is a bigger factor than time, go Slow build...the first 2 sections are fast anyway. If you have a hard time finding time, get QB and get done. #3. You could try alternative engines, but re-engineering for them will cost extra too. In the end, just finding a lycoming core and having some place rebuild it would probably save you the most money. If you're confident in your rebuilding skills, maybe you'll want to wait until ECI has their 540 kit out. At this point, since you haven't bought yet, you definitely have the time to ponder the engine thing for a while. #4 I can't answer...you're not near me. Again though, welcome to the list. I can easily see an EE/ME guy being a software guy....when I started in EE, we had to learn programming and CAD as part of the program. Fun stuff!

    Subject: RV10 Firewall Forward parts inventory (current 3/15/2005)
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> After having called Van's about the FWF kit for the -10, and seeing the parts list online, I noticed a small revelation. The FWF kit on their order page is just a "sample" that is, I believe, based on the RV-7. So I contacted them directly and got a current I(O)540 FWF Kit inventory so that I would have the true list for our application. It's not the same as the others. Currently there are parts not included, because they haven't finished engineering the kits yet. They said that over time, more and more items will be in the kit, and the price will go up. But, the kit as currently shipping, takes care of some of the basics. I thought I'd post the list for your info. Remember that the kit will be more complete the further along we get. -- Tim Olson -- RV-10 #170 -------------------------------------------------------- Here's the list: (Of the FF-10 IO-540 W/CT10-3 kit....

    Subject: Posting for James Hein and alternative engines
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Lloyd, Daniel R." <LloydDR@wernerco.com> James Welcome to the group. There is a builder/flyer up near Nashua, his name is Gary Newstead, he has one of the best 9A's I have seen. He installed the Eggenfellner Subaru, and wrote the manual they now use. I too am looking at using the Subaru H-6 for the 10, I have been following Jan's development for several years now, and it just keeps getting better, as long as you follow the install manual. I am very interested in this engine, I went down to Daytona, and got to fly in their 6A, and it is impressive! Get Gary's contact info from the eggenfellner site, and go visit him, I am sure he will give you a demo flight for the Subbie. Tell him Dan said Hi! Dan 40269 Can you say Slo build wings....at least slower than most.

    From: "Tim Dawson-Townsend" <Tdawson@avidyne.com>
    Here's a test message to see if it works. Anybody thinking of ditching the Crotch Strap Lugs on the rear seats? I don't see the point in having a 5-point harness back there in this plane. Somebody's just going to bash their shin on it. I think Van's should amend the plans to say, "If you're going to have five-point harness, install this lug, otherwise, leave it out."

    Subject: Crotch strap lug
    From: "Scott Schmidt" <sschmidt@ussynthetic.com>
    I'm getting rid of it. Van's told me that most of the people who have ordered seats have ordered the 4 point seat belts. There is no option for five points in the front seats so why have them in the back seats.

Anybody thinking of ditching the Crotch Strap Lugs on the rear seats? I don't see the point in having a 5-point harness back there in this plane. Somebody's just going to bash their shin on it.

In my RV8, I use the crotch strap for my front seat only. Back seat is four point. In the RV10, I don't see a need for the extra strap in general. It's there to prevent "submarining" under the lap belt in a sudden stoppage.....as in, flying into a mountain. For acro mounts, it's a must to keep your butt securely clamped to the seat, but for a touring airplane, it's probably too intimidating/restricting to the average non-fliers who will occupy the extra seats in these airplanes. My view only. Brian Denk RV8 N94BD RV10 '51

    Abby will send me some carpet and the cloth from the center of the seats to use as panel covers. She stocks it all most of the time. I may send her some panels to use but Tim is closer and she wants to see his fuse when it gets to him. Randy -----Original Message-----

When I was at OSH, the vendors kind of told me if I wanted a GNS480, I should get an MX-20. If I wanted a garmin 430/530, I should get a EX500. Wondering if there is anything new now that would make it better to work with a GNS480? I like the EX500 display better than the MX20, but I'm having a hard time being willing to give up the features of the GNS480. I'll be swingin' by SNF this year though, so you can bet I'll be checking it out.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Scott Schmidt" <sschmidt@ussynthetic.com> I just wanted you all to be aware that there are two exhaust options for the RV-10. Aerospace and Vetterman both are making one. I called Van's yesterday and they said you can specify which one you want but I've heard that they will only carry the Vetterman exhaust in the future. I don't know if that is true though.

The FWF kit on their order page is just a "sample" that is, I believe, based on the RV-7. So I contacted them directly and got a current I(O)540 FWF Kit inventory so that I would have the true list for our application. It's not the same as the others. Currently there are parts not included, because they haven't finished engineering the kits yet. They said that over time, more and more items will be in the kit, and the price will go up. But, the kit as currently shipping, takes care of some of the basics. I thought I'd post the list for your info. Remember that the kit will be more complete the further along we get. -- Tim Olson -- RV-10 #170 -------------------------------------------------------- Here's the list: (Of the FF-10 IO-540 W/CT10-3 kit....

    Subject: EX500
    From: "Tim Dawson-Townsend" <Tdawson@avidyne.com>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Tim Dawson-Townsend" <Tdawson@Avidyne.com> Tim: The GNS-480 will work with the EX500 when connected with the "Aviation format" RS232 interface. As of last notice, the GNS-480 did not support the GAMA 429 standard, so that prevents an ARINC 429 interface with the EX500 until that changes (or we do!) The GNS-480 also has a proprietary "high speed" serial output that, when used with the MX-20, supports one or two features that the regular "Aviation format" interface does not, for instance automatically telling the MX-20 what specific approach you have loaded in the GNS-480. But on the flip side, people who have flown both MX-20 and EX500 with JeppView approach plates have been reporting that the EX500 implementation is much more responsive and in the end, more usable than on the MX-20. And, of course, I don't think you can get XM datalink weather on MX-20 . . . But, by all means stop by the Avidyne booth and poke around and ask all the questions you would like. You might even see me there! (if they can pry me away from the Van's booth . . .)

When I was at OSH, the vendors kind of told me if I wanted a GNS480, I should get an MX-20. If I wanted a garmin 430/530, I should get a EX500. Wondering if there is anything new now that would make it better to work with a GNS480? I like the EX500 display better than the MX20, but I'm having a hard time being willing to give up the features of the GNS480. I'll be swingin' by SNF this year though, so you can bet I'll be checking it out.

    If you're going to clutter up the list with TEST messages, please use the "do not archive" statement so they don't clutter up the archives too.

    I purchased a bag-o-rivets at SNF last year, it had some round head AN470AD5 rivets in there, just bucked them in and it feels better than using pull rivets..... Mike Kraus N223RV - RV-4 Flying N213RV - RV-10 - Working on wings......

    Subject: Wing incidence
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> I was watching a thread on the regular generic RV Matronics forum about adjusting the wing incidence angle, I think after assembly and test flight. I'm just wondering...they were referring to RV-6 series planes, but what about our -10's. Maybe someone who's way ahead, like Randy, could answer this: Does that small alignment hole in the rear wing spar doubler actually take care of the whole wing incidence issue for you, since we have pre-punched, CAD designed airframes? It would seem we'd have less variability and more accuracy, and therefore have less to worry about. How did yours go Randy?...or anyone else?
