    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!

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. Anh #141

    Subject: My Power Distribution
    From: "RV Builder \(Michael Sausen\)" <rvbuilder@sausen.net>
    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. Michael Sausen -10 #352 Ailerons -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Dan Masys Subject: Re: RV10-List: My Power Distribution --> RV10-List message posted by: Dan Masys <dmasys@cox.net> 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. -Dan Masys RV-7A flying Four weeks into the project and working on RV-10 elevators, with VS, HS and rudder done. > From: Sean Stephens <schmoboy@cox.net> > Date: 2005/09/26 Mon PM 12:41:28 EDT > To: rv10-list@matronics.com > Subject: RV10-List: My Power Distribution > > --> RV10-List message posted by: Sean Stephens <schmoboy@cox.net> > > I've uploaded my main power distribution diagram for review.

    Subject: Shoe Goo
    From: "RV Builder \(Michael Sausen\)" <rvbuilder@sausen.net>
    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.

    Subject: Fwd Engine baffle
    From: "Scott Schmidt" <sschmidt@ussynthetic.com>
    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.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Byron Gillespie" <bgill1@charter.net> 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.

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.

    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 #141 ----- Original Message ----- From: Jesse Saint To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, September 27, 2005 7:09 AM Subject: RE: RV10-List: 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.

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. Anh #141

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Doerr, Ray R [NTK]" <Ray.R.Doerr@sprint.com> 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.

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. -Dan Masys #40448 elevators
