The rivet holes are so far off that it misses the channel completely. Any suggestions? Another interesting tidbit I found in the manual is that it says for the "standard kit only" to install the TG vents for the NACA slots in the front. Does this mean that the QB builders must buy this part, but not the standard kit builders? Robin Wessel Tigard, OR

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "McGANN, Ron" <ron.mcgann@baesystems.com> William, I had precisely the same problem as Tim. If your problem was the same as ours, you would not have been able to install the tie down because the tie down bolt holes would have contained rivets. The holes on the opposite edge that should have been rivetted were empty. Vans instructions to me were to remove the incorrect rivets, and fill the unriveted holes with AN bolts. I would suggest you just fill the hole with a bolt - stronger than a rivet anyway :-). cheers, Ron -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com]On Behalf Of William Curtis Subject: RV10-List: Missing wing spare rivet(s) I was finishing up riveting the top skins on my right wing and noticed a missing rivet on the wing spare.

    Everything except the ox tank. It will be installed after the fly off. It only weighs about lbs.. Carbon fiber tank. Everything else was in just like you would fly it. No wheel pants yet. I will reweigh it after but I am guessing that the final weight will be about 1627. We will see.

    Subject: Starter solenoid location
    Hi All, I have recently had the opportunity to disassembly the firewall forward electrical wiring on a RV-6A and a RV-6. In both installations, the starter solenoid was mounted on the front side of the firewall. In both cases, the large wire from the master solenoid going to the starter solenoid was chaffing against the corner of an aluminum bracket. The wire insulation was worn more than half way through to the copper wire. (48 hours TT on one installation, and the copper was visible through the insulation.) Please, take a little extra care with this large wire. With the master switch on, it's always hot until it gets to the starter solenoid. Regards, Jim Ayers PS I relocated the master and starter solenoids directly over the battery box in my RV-6A. The starter wire going through the firewall is only hot when the starter is engaged.

    Subject: RV-10 Duckworks Light Kit Installed
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Hey all, I hadn't had a chance to get the page all completed to post until now, but I wanted to make sure you all get to see this bit of info. You're gonna like this... For those wanting to go right to the link, here you go: http://www.myrv10.com/N104CD/wing/duckworksHIDS/index.html After hearing my plea a couple months ago regarding better landing light options for the RV-10, Don from Duckworks got a hold of an RV-10 and designed a wing-leading-edge landing light kit for our RV-10's. That REALLY made my day, because I had been adamant that I wanted HID's, (really super bright, low power draw (3A) lights that have a normal lifetime of something like 3000 hours...very durable) and now I had the option to use either their rectangular, round aircraft standard or halogen, or round HID's. Having seen Duckworks kits on other RV's over the years, I was always really impressed with how good they looked. As far as functionality goes too, I don't think these can be beat. Sorry to those (Randy and others) who have those MR-16's in the wingtips, but I really think those are not that fantastic. For one, they sit on the back wall of the sheared tip, so they may not radiate as well towards the centerline. As for power, they'll draw 75W each, so you'll be pulling plenty of amps if you outfit your tips with one or two on each side...and that light comes with a very high heat also. They are cheap though, so they were pretty hard to beat in that regard. In general though, with putting the Nav lights and strobes into the tips too, I really didn't want those little landing lights to be my main lighting...they'd make better wig-wags or something else like that. So once the Duckworks kit was available, that made up my mind as to HOW I was going to mount them. I still didn't know what to do about the bulbs. I wanted at least one HID, but they're pricey, so I didn't know if I wanted 2. I shopped Ebay, and educated myself on the various types of HID bulbs. I found out that the really good HID's are D1S type bulbs....but most of what you see on Ebay is D2S (or R). The "R" bulbs have a shielding that would cut some light output, so I knew I wanted an "S". The D1 bulbs also have another big benefit for us in aviation...the D2S has the bulb igniter in the ballast. The D1S has the igniter in the bulb. The difference is that the D2S bulbs will then at times have over 20Kv of signal going over that cable between the bulb and the ballast....which can cause interference. So, not wanting to sacrifice my radio's clarity, I decided D1S "Third Generation" was the only way to go. When you limit yourself to that option, there is no super low cost way to go. Bulbs and ballasts will just be expensive. In fact, there is an aviation conversion kit I found online to replace standard round bulbs with HIDs (the SAME HIDs as Duckworks uses) for $535!! Duckworks HIDs were a significantly better deal, considering that theirs came with all the mounting stuff you'd need too! I was sold....rather than have one high-power-draw bulb, and one nice efficient and super bright HID, I'd just get 2 and have it all. The understandably scary part of the duckworks kit was the idea of having to cut a hole in the wing...especially with the wing completed. But, this turned out to be a real non-issue. The completed wing is nice and stiff, and cuts very easily...in fact, if I had my choice I would rather install the kit after the leading edge was completed, rather than do it when the skins weren't riveted up. Besides that, the kit came with excellent templates with exactly...EXACTLY where you want to cut. It also contained everything else you need to do the install. As a bonus, they just redesigned the lens attachment method to eliminate issues with cracking from drilling holes through the lens. So, if you were looking for a landing light kit for your RV-10, or actually any RV, you're really going to find that this kit is a pretty easy install. As far as benefits... I think that if you mounted them in the wheel pants, you'd get much more vibration upon landing. You also want your lights out way towards the tips, so you don't get the strobe effect of the light on your prop. And, with the nice full-size lights mounted in these areas of the wing, you can aim them to get the light exactly where you want it. So, I was really impressed, and I decided that I'd try to ease some of the worry about cutting wing holes and throw together a page that showed the install. It was my first time with these kits, so I'm no pro. That link again: http://www.myrv10.com/N104CD/wing/duckworksHIDS/index.html Oh, and even if you can't put the cash into HID's, you can buy the kit very cheaply with standard rectangular or round bulbs, and upgrade to the HIDs later using the same mounting.

    Subject: Starter solenoid location
    Or, just don't use fat wire at all between the solenoids....use a nice fat piece of copper or brass (cover with heavy heatshrink) to run between the two (no reason to have them mounted far apart after all). I stole the idea from some other old graybeard builder....no chance of any fat wires vibrating around or chafing through....you'd be surprised to know this is more common than you may think! If you do have to use a fat wire (because your solenoids may be mounted too far apart for the buss bar method), common standard practice is to use a cushioned adel clamp wherever the wire runs near to any sort of metal or brackets, or over long runs of any type. A few bucks and few minutes installing adel clamps really will make your installations safer & better when running any types of wire, spark plug leads, control cables, etc..

    Subject: Re: Wing clecos
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> 700-750 should be good for the tailcone and the wings. I did both wings at the same time too, and I had this quantity, and it worked out for me. I think building them at the same time is a good way to go, because then you can have them both laid out and verify that they both look good and are mirror images of eachother....and that you didn't accidently use parts from one wing in the other wing. I don't think I'd do it any other way unless you just didn't have the room.

    Subject: Engine start today N610RV
    From: "Randy DeBauw" <Randy@abros.com>
    Well it runs and has oil pressure. I stated and ran the engine for a couple of minutes today. What a feeling. I just can't wait for the full throttle run later this week to set the prop gov. I will take the engine cowl off tomorrow and give the engine a good look. Randy
