Dan, wlcome to the _10 world. Before I started my project, you and your outstanding
website were a very valuable source of information and inspiration. Are you
going to add a chapter there about why a 10 now. :)
Anyway glad that you are in the camp.

It's that blur doing barrel rolls around you...ooops.
Hey, on the rudder fairings, do yourself a favor and epoxy/flox them on
instead of riveting. Looks much smoother, no need to fill pop rivet holes,
etc. I didn't know diddly about West System or composites when I installed
my rudder cable fairings on my -7. Wish I had just waited.
In fact, next time I'll just make 'em out of fiberglass, come to think of
it. Maybe one of these days I'll make a mold off the ones on my -7 and will
sell lightweight fiberglass ones for less than even Spruce. Hm....any
takers?

Are the static lines already run? How and where are you putting your
rear Headsets, and if you plan on a DVD player and displays for the
seats? And power leads for them.

Wow, I just got my soundproofing foam and 2 cans of Sticky Stuff today.
It definitely does look like good stuff to put under the floor. So
far I got a 4'x4' square of 3 thicknesses....3/4", 1/2", and 3/8".
Going thinner the further rearward I go.
That stuff though...the soundproofing, man it stinks. I laid it out
in the garage and it got to my throat worse than MEK, Toluene,
and even paint and primer. Does it eventually get better, or do I have
to get it sealed up quickly?
One misc. question...
I'm about to close up the floors under the baggage area, and before I
do, I'm running conduit like Randy did on this page:
http://www.myrv10.com/N610RV/wire_routing/index.html
Can anyone think of any reason why 2 tubes of 3/4" conduit wouldn't
be enough for all the wires that will run to the tail? The wires
I currently think will be there are:
Main battery cable (1)
Strobe power supply wires (if mounting in tailcone)
Stobe wires going up to wings
Tail light wire
Elt control wires
Autopilot servo wiring for pitch servo
Trim wiring???
Anything I'm not thinking of?

I'm not planning on putting my builder's log online this time. It takes far
too much time away from building. Looks like there are already several
decent RV-10 builder sites out there.
I'm building an RV-10 emp/tail kit which once completed will be up for sale.
If anybody is interested, contact me off-list (dan@rvproject.com).
After that's done I will eventually build an RV-10 start to finish and put
that up for sale. I'm not interested in flying the -10, but I do enjoy
building.

Those adhesive tie wrap mounts will eventually lose their "stick" and will
come off...I also noticed you didn't rough up the alclad where you stuck 'em
on. Hey, I did the same thing. A few hundred hours later, some had fallen
off. My 2 cents -- just use a gob of RTV or epoxy every so many inches to
hold your conduit in place and keep it from chafing against aluminum.
If something is allowed to flex at all, it will either eventually start
rubbing something or it will break.
For wiring, keep in mind stuff like remote external compass units, remote
sensors of various types for EFISs. Autopilot elevator servo wiring,
elevator trim servo wiring, etc.
Multiple paths for wiring is usually a good thing.

My soundproofing didn't stink.
I'm sure it will go away over time. This is now how I rank the worst
smells of the project so far.
1. LaPuente Mexican Food (OK, it doesn't really count)
2. The glue that holds the windows in. WOW, this stuff is horrible.
3. Pro-Seal
4. The smell of burning fiberglass (cutting the top)

See now that's the kind of help I needed! :) Thanks Dan,
I would have forgotten about static lines. I'll have to
look closely at the headset jack plan...maybe that bar behind the
rear seats wouldn't be a bad place, or many other various locations.
I defnitely plan to have some sort of video screens on the front
seatbacks, but I think it'll be driven by a portable unit...probably
not a portable DVD player, but a hard drive based system. I currently
carry a tablet PC and plug it into the car stereo. Works well,
but I'd like more of a "monitor" type screen.
Also good suggestions from Dan C. in the other post.

I think they also can put a power Jack there, so that would be good for
a portable DVD/?? Also can someone verify for me that a GMA 340 intercom
has passenger isolate? IE the two in back can be isolated from the two
in front? If they can not, can anyone recommend an intercom/audio panel
that will?

That would be a great place, but it's getting a little busy back there.
I'm adding a lighter socket, and music input jack. Then, since I'll
have a 6 place intercom, I'm adding one headset jack to that panel.
I'll have a total of 5 wired headset jacks. The 3rd in the rear will
be used for video camera use. I'll also wire a microphone jack next
to it, so it will be an optional place for a passenger to plug in.
Then, in addition I have ANR headsets and everywhere that I put a
headset jack will require 3 holes...one for the power plug. So
I figured I't put it this way:
Left Side: 3 holes for headset
Middle: 3 holes for headset, Lighter socket, music input
Right Side: 3 holes for headset
That's a little much to put all on that center console.
I'll look at it closer as I get more finished on the fuselage.

Yep. It has two isolate modes...PILOT & CREW. It also has two separate
music/entertainment inputs. One for all occupants (minus isolate), and one
for just passengers.
At the risk of being a broken record about this -- if you use a GMA-340, be
sure to connect the jumper which enables the optional 20dB boost of the
music input (see the install manual). Makes all the difference in the
world.

I can't verify the GMA340 right now, but you really want
"pilot isolate" and "Crew isolate". That gives you single-pilot
isolation with all other seats talking, and front seat isolate
with rear seats still talking. My current bird has these features
and with kids, I consider it a priceless feature.

Well everything was good except 4 items. All were fixed last night and have rescheduled

You bet. I know about most of them but was not able to get parts to fix them on
Sat or Sun.
First was no boots on the master contactor and positive battery post.
Second, no boot on the LH mag P lead. Rh not a problem because it is facing down
and nothing could sit on it and ground it out.
Third, some of you my have received the wrong width spacer for the wheel pants
mounting bracket. They were .100 to thick. I was going to change them when I
installed the wheel pants but one bolt ended up too short. We were able to get
to the one bolt head to hold it and change out to the thinner spacer with out
removing the wheels.
Forth, I was brain dead. No nut plates on the emp. to attach the fairing. I drilled
them last week and forgot to nut plate them this weekend. We were checking
the whole plane and just forgot.
All fixed with most of the interior installed. The complete interior will be in
tonight except the bulkhead (inspector needs to see the new boots on the battery
and master contactor). Randy

Subject: | Minor Missing parts in QB Fuselage Kits |
--> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com>
Here's one to check if you have the QB fuselage...
Mine, by the way, was one of them shipped without front floor panels...
some got them, some didn't.
Under the most forward leg of each gear attach bracket (the huge things
under the 2 front seats), you drill and install 2 nutplates per side.
K1000-3.
Looking for them in inventory finds that Bag 1455 has a quantity of 2.
I'm not sure if there are 2 required somewhere else, and I was missing
4, or if they accidently just shorted me 2. It's also possible that
people who got their front floor panels didn't get shorted these
nutplates.
Either way though, it's a very minor part that you might want to
verify you have enough of. I always hate finding these things
out at the last minute.
