Subject: | Fwd Engine baffle |
Anh,
With the C4B5 one of the holes you need does not exist. We had to make a
bracket that fit to another one of the holes in the engine and found a screw
that would fit. If you aren't in a hurry I can take a picture of our setup
next time we have the top cowl off, which may not be for another several
weeks. We are going to need our 100-hour by that time. It's running great.
You may also notice that the right rear section of the baffles does not fit
the engine case very well. We had to trim and trim and trim that piece to
get it to fit right.
GOD BLESS!

I'm not having a lot of luck fitting the fwd air ramp baffles, especially
the L/H ramp. There's two brackets to bolt this air ramp to the engine
case. The aft one is fine. The fwd one sets the angle of the ramp. Only
about 1/2 of this bracket is making contact with the ramp itself. Also, the
plans call for a 3/8" bolt. The hole on the engine is made to accept a
smaller 10-24 bolt. It appears that I'll have to fab another bracket to
make things fit after trying the lower cowl on. I would appreciate tips
from anyone who has a C4B5 engine that has gone through this.
BTW, so far I had to fab the aft bracket on top of the engine, another one
on the rear of the cyl #5 baffle assembly. All else seemed to work out ok.

One possibility for the people that are going to go with the fuse block is
to use the space on the panel that would have been breakers and mount the fuse
block behind a door so they are easily accessible. Of course if you don't have
the space this wouldn't be an option.

Circuit diagrams look fine. I have the Z-12 schematic running in my -7A, using
the 8 amp standby alternator rather than the 20A, and a Nippon Denso internally
regulated main alternator, for which I added a disconnect relay (connected
to Bob's crowbar overvoltage sensor) in case of alternator voltage runaway. Works
well, though my electric gyros didn't like being on the downstream side of
the diode connecting the main bus and essential bus, since there is about a
1.2 volt drop across the diode. Simple solution to this problem has been to keep
the E-bus Alternate Feed swith on in addition to the Master switch, which
brings the essential bus up to the same voltage as the main bus.
Last week I inadvertently left the alternate feed switch on overnight and ran down
the battery to nothing during a long cross country. I discovered for the
first time that I could run both the main alternator and the standby alternator
at the same time, and increase the total amps available for running the airplane
and charging the battery. I had always figured I would have to shut the
main alternator down to prevent interactions of the two voltage regulators, but
in practice running both worked like a charm.
Bob's dual alternator circuits work well. Are you using his fuse block approach
also? That's a little less elegant in my -7A since I have to crawl under the
panel to get to the fuse blocks, but the idea is not to be replacing fuses while
flying in any case. Will be putting fuse blocks in the -10 also.

E6000 is basically "shoe goo" and it has REALLY good stickability.
They sell it at Wal-Mart, and hardware stores all over. There
are other products that are the same thing under other names, but
E6000 costs less than most. I think I paid about $2.50/tube
or so. You'll find it handy for other things later on too, I'm sure.

Ooohhh....Shoe Goo, I know what that is. It's great stuff.
Where else but in the experimental world can a person put shoe goo on their airplane?
I'll give it a try and it should work great.
Thanks for the help.

Great stuff, one of the best kept secrets in glues. Just keep in mind that it's
a styrene monomer and uses Toluene as a solvent therefore will eat through
anything that toluene will such as Styrofoam and it could possibly soften Proseal
as it is Toluene based.
Most common brand is Goop. It's also handy for gluing wires in place rather than
using the stick on pads for cable ties. The Marine Goop has UV blockers which
might be better for external use. Also polyurethane glues (Gorilla) are
very good for some things. Just rough up the surfaces before you use any glue
as it purely mechanical bond on aluminum.

If you guys try to glue somethings try 5200 from 3M fast cure (white or black)
12 dol for a crtridge at home depot ,the toughest marine glue (even under water),I
put my boats togheter with it.

Subject: | Fwd Engine baffle |
I just went through this as well. On the left side I had to make a new
bracket because the one provided was off by quite a bit and didn't line
up at all. The baffles are definitely a pain. I think each engine
casing is just a little different.
I will take some pictures tonight but you will just have to fabricate
your own brackets where they don't fit. Try to get the angle as close
as possible on the ramp by lining it up with the bottom opening of the
cowl since it is something you can't bend later. You also have to be
aware of the rivets and nutplates that are added later.

Sean:
I did the same thing Tim did - rivet the tail cone locations and glue
the interior of fuselage. I used "marine goop" from the Walmart aviation
department. I have used various types of "goop" the past and all have
performed excellent. Used to secure glass lens to a waterproof case -
had to break the glass to remove.... Didn't want to chance the exterior
but if the interior falls off - I still have more goop! If I remember
right the E6000 is the shoe goo? Someone can verify.
Byron #40253
Ready to paint the interior fuselage bottom before working the cabin
top.

I put them outside at the rudder cable exits, and inside at the forward
rudder cable exits into the cabin from the tunnel. I riveted mine
in at the tail, but used E6000 on the ones inside the cockpit.
I'm thinking E6000 might work fine for the ones outside too, but if
you lost one in flight, you'd have to re-paint the replacement...so it
may be worth some rivets just for that future small possibility.

I've gotten to the point of using Pro Seal for the first time on the
rudder and didn't know the difference between the 1/2 hour stuff and the
2 hour stuff. I just found out I ordered the 1/2 hour Proseal. Will I
have time to use this on the rudder or do I have to order the 2 hours
Proseal.

E6000 is basically "shoe goo" and it has REALLY good stickability. They
sell it at Wal-Mart, and hardware stores all over. There are other
products that are the same thing under other names, but E6000 costs less
than most. I think I paid about $2.50/tube or so. You'll find it handy
for other things later on too, I'm sure.

Get everything fit together and set before you mix up the proseal. I
had a friend come over and help when I did mine and i think it took us
about 15 minutes to get the goop on and everything cleco'd together and
weighted down. We didn't really rush it and it came out great ;) I
used the 30 minute stuff as well and it was fine.

The bad news is, you'll want to buy the 2 hour stuff for the tanks.
The good news is, I think the 1/2 hour stuff is a smaller quantity,
right?? You're not going to have a problem getting it smeared on the
rudder well within the 1/2 hour timeframe. Same with the other
surfaces, so you'll be able to use the 1/2 hour stuff just fine, and
in fact it might be nice because it'll set up quicker and you can get
to finishing those parts probably the next day.

Andy Karmy had a nice solution for this on his RV-9A website, shown here:
http://www.karmy.com/rv9a/pictures/fuselage/electrical/img_0022.htm
Basically, he mounted the fuse blocks on a hinged plate between the main panel
and subpanel, with a cowl fastener to hold it in place. Quarter turn and viola,
the fuses drop down into view. Better solution than I have on my -7A, where
the fuse blocks are mounted to the firewall recess, but I didn't see it before
I had mine in place.

When I did mine it was in my outside workshop in 90 degree Alabama humid
heat with a struggling air conditioner. If I got 30 minutes out of it I'd
be surprised. Follow everyone's guidance to be as prepared as you can
before you mix it. I've got toulene and another batch for my elevators;
I'll also try to be more ready even though it's a little cooler.

Subject: | Re: Fwd Engine baffle |
Thanks Jesse and others. I feel a little better that at least I'm not whacked.
Included tonight are some pictures. I'm discovering some other problems yet
on the L/H fwd air ramp. Please look at them and tell me if my mitigations below
are sound:
1. The aft center bracket on top of the engine sat too high above the screw holes.
I took a shot of the screw hole itself so you can see how different it is
from the true D4A5. I ground down about 50% of the mid section of the bracket
to make it fit. Is this section now too thin that I should fabricate another?
2. First of 3 problems on the L/H air ramp. The big hole that will have a screen
underneath (not too concerned and don't know what it is for at this point)
is too close to the fiberglass lip. One of the #30 holes is actually underneath
the glass. You're supposed to trim the metal later so that the ramp lip is
almost even with the glass lip. That would cut out this #30 hole. I can either
cut a half-moon in the glass and same on the metal side so that this #30
hole will stay. Will I have difficulty installing the bottom cowl later on? Or
I can trim the entire glass lip back to expose the #30 hole. Note a picture
of 410RV shows the air seal partially covering the big hole on Tim Olson's website.
3. Second prob. The center of the smaller 3/4" hole on the same air ramp where
the prop gov cable will protrude through is about 1/2" inboard of the prop gov
arm from eyeballing it. Will I have a problem aligning and installing the
prop gov cable?
4. Third prob. One of my pictures shows my pinky pointing at a screw hole on
the engine case. A bracket goes there and I intend to have it contact the top
side of the air ramp. I don't think it will interfere with the center fwd baffle
later. Do you see any other problems with this?
The last picture is of the R/H air ramp. No problems here. I happened to see
that the glass lip of the bottom cowl is aligned with the rear of the ring gear.
Is this about how yours are? My glass lips are not too fat, are they? I
don't remember being told to trim them back when working on the cowls.
Pew! that's enough for one night. Thanks in advance. Guess I've been spoiled up
to this point (except the oil door took longer than the big door - exaggerated
a bit. What up with that) that things have been fitting together much nicer.

Anh,
With the C4B5 one of the holes you need does not exist. We had to make a bracket
that fit to another one of the holes in the engine and found a screw that
would fit. If you aren't in a hurry I can take a picture of our setup next time
we have the top cowl off, which may not be for another several weeks. We
are going to need our 100-hour by that time. It's running great.
You may also notice that the right rear section of the baffles does not fit the
engine case very well. We had to trim and trim and trim that piece to get
it to fit right.
GOD BLESS!

Subject: RV10-List: Fwd Engine baffle
I'm not having a lot of luck fitting the fwd air ramp baffles, especially the
L/H ramp. There's two brackets to bolt this air ramp to the engine case. The
aft one is fine. The fwd one sets the angle of the ramp. Only about 1/2 of
this bracket is making contact with the ramp itself. Also, the plans call for
a 3/8" bolt. The hole on the engine is made to accept a smaller 10-24 bolt.
It appears that I'll have to fab another bracket to make things fit after trying
the lower cowl on. I would appreciate tips from anyone who has a C4B5 engine
that has gone through this.
BTW, so far I had to fab the aft bracket on top of the engine, another one on
the rear of the cyl #5 baffle assembly. All else seemed to work out ok.

I did this as well. I created a tray for the pilot side that was 15"
wide by 8" deep that was hinged to the bottom of the sub panel. Keep in
mind that if you put it on the co-pilot side it will interfere with the
push/pull cables for the heater because they will likely be routed below
the sub panel. Also on the Pilot side, stay in enough so that it won't
interfere with the vent or naca scoop.
Thank You

Andy Karmy had a nice solution for this on his RV-9A website, shown
here:
http://www.karmy.com/rv9a/pictures/fuselage/electrical/img_0022.htm
Basically, he mounted the fuse blocks on a hinged plate between the main
panel and subpanel, with a cowl fastener to hold it in place. Quarter
turn and viola, the fuses drop down into view. Better solution than I
have on my -7A, where the fuse blocks are mounted to the firewall
recess, but I didn't see it before I had mine in place.
