    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Thanks Scott, that sounds like a plan. I skipped the bonding yesterday after I saw the note that epoxy with 30 minute pot life should be used. I had fast hardner (205), so today I'm skipping out early to go get some slow (206) for doing that step. Tonight should be bonding night.

    Subject: For Those Looking at HID Lights...
    From: "Wentz, Don" <don.wentz@intel.com>
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Wentz, Don" <don.wentz@intel.com> Tim, my site lists the PAR-36 light for $380, has for over a year (while most other sites have been charging $595 and up). BTW, I have sold mounting kits without lights to many in the RV community. This allows you to use a lamp that you source and have all the hard design and fabrication work (mounts, lens, etc) already done for you. Dw www.duckworksaviation.com -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Tim Olson Subject: Re: RV10-List: For Those Looking at HID Lights... --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> These being PAR36 lights at 35W, should be very similar to Duckworks lights. I wonder how they intend to offer them for mounting options, as there's no good place for a PAR36 in the tips....still have to cut the hole in the leading edge or put it elsewhere. So, my guess is that it's another option for bulb supply, but not necessarily a "total solution" as you'd get with a duckworks kit....we'll have to wait and see how he expects to use them.

    Subject: Elevator Trim Tabs
    Greetings to everyone: I have been struggling with the electric trim cable adjustments and cannot seem to get them to come out right. If I am reading this correctly, the manual indicates that the trim motor should be ran to the full nose up position and the cables should be adjusted to achieve a 35 degree angle measuring from the top of the trim tab to the top of the elevator. When adjusted in this manner, the left trim tab will not come to a full neutral position. Even when the motor is ran to the full nose down position, the trailing edge of the trim tab is still 3/8ths of an inch lower than the trailing edge of the elevator. Has anyone experienced a problem like this? I know that I have been a quiet participant on this list, however, I have learned a great deal from all of you and appreciate your views and enthusiasm. We are on a wonderful journey, one that few people have an opportunity to explore. I have learned how exceptional we all can be when we have opportunity to create and develop the dream. I have a great deal of respect for what we have all decided to do together. We represent 1/1000 of the population, a pretty unique crowd. While I don't know you personally, I admire your choices and interest. Hope to see you all at OSH. Jack

    Subject: Fuel Tank Nose rivets
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "McGANN, Ron" <ron.mcgann@baesystems.com> Hi all, Just finishing off the tanks and was doing a final inspection of the rivets before installing the baffle. I noticed that the shop heads in the nose of the skin seemed to be much higher than the rest (ie the rivets had not been fully set). This is hard to confirm during rivetting with proseal everywhere. Once the proseal had set, the rivets were pretty solid but were still obviously dodgy. I took to them with the gun and bar again, and despite the right banging noises, the rivets would still not set properly. Closer investigation found that the bucking bar was contacting the raised flutes on the ribs - not the rivet tail. A change in bucking bar set the rivets properly and an extra dab of proseal seems to have done the job. I found that I needed to flute the forward part of the ribs quite a bit to have them fit properly, so the probability of whacking the flute was quite high. I guess I'm just a dummy for not tweaking earlier, and not noticing that the rivets were not set properly when I initially bucked them. Just thought I would pass on a lesson learned for those about to get there. cheers, Ron

    Subject: Re: Garmin 396 - Interesting Link
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Eric Panning <ericmpmail-rv10@yahoo.com> Thanks for the link. I think it will offer a lower cost route for a very capable VFR panel. Looks like weather, XM radio audio, SL30 integration and TIS with the right transponder. That's alot of additional capability over a 296 for an additional 1k. Garmin 396 + SL30 would be ~ 6000. This is close to the price of a GNS-430 without the GPS IFR capability. I've been using anywhere map for years but I think this Garmin product is far superior. I think Anywhere map is tough to use in turb and the display contrast and color choices leave alot to be desired. Mountain Scope has a better display but more limited features and a higher price.
