Subject: | For the new starters |
Good post, Mark.
I for one am not yet an RV-10 builder, but plan to buy the Empennage kit and start
on it next winter (I promised my fianc=E9e at OSH this summer that I wouldn't
build another airplane for at least a year). I'm spending my time "lurking"
on this list and compiling my own archive of useful tips. Yours will go on
that list. I did some riveting when building the cowling for my scratch-built
Pietenpol Air Camper, but not as good a job as I would have liked. Your tips
would have helped.
This list appears to be as helpful as the Matronics Pietenpol list. Different
mindset (here people are talking about which Autopilot or EFIS to install, on
the Pietenpol list the debates are over douglas fir versus sitka spruce, or Aerothane
versus latex house paint). On both lists you wade through a lot of junk
but get the occasional gem, and you soon learn that there are a few people
on the list that it really pays to listen to - people who really know what they
are talking about. Thanks for posting a "gem".

Subject: RV10-List: For the new starters
A lot of people are a long way into the project and there's a lot of talk about
painting and engines etc which is years away for those just starting,so, for
those who have just started I'll share a few things I've learned so far (I know
you can look up the archive but who cares).
Learning to rivet: it scares the crap out of all of us to begin with but here are
a few tricks I've learned. I have the advantage of working for a GA airline
and have access to LAME's and engineers etc and most of these tricks they gave
me.
1. When riveting flush rivets (AN426), run a line of masking tape either side of
the line of holes (on the gun side) and you'll find that the gun doesn't wander
around anywhere near as much.
2. When riveting AN470 rivets put a piece of masking tape over the machined head
of the rivet. You will very rarely miss another one or get another smiley.
3. When driving 3/32nd rivets use about 35-40PSI. The longer the rivet attachment
the slightly higher the pressure.
4. When driving 1/8th rivets use about 65-70PSI. Again, when you need to use a
longer rivet attachment increase the pressure slightly.
5. Try as best you can to drive the rivet in one go rather than multiple goes.
Hold the rivet gun and bucking bar as square to the rivet as possible and just
let the bucking bar do the work. If your pressures are right you'll see the head
forming before your eyes and it will feel right. There's no other way to describe
it.
6. Just have a go! By the time you get half way through the HS you'll wonder what
all the fuss was about. Then again, when you get near the end of the elevators
where you're expected to get your large hands into ridiculously awkward positions
to drive a rivet you'll feel the frustration creeping back.

I was thinking that on my next order from ACS, I'd get whatever logbooks
and placards I'll need. I see on this page of ACS's catalog they have a
nameplate, and stainless steel ID tag on the top of the page.
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/pdf/catalog/Cat06348.pdf
I need both of these, right? I've seen the black on the side under the
HS on -10's. Where would the nameplate go?

Did we discuss before what the meaning of "cruise speed" is, vis-=E0-vis if you
need 12 inch N-numbers or 3-inch? The FAR doesn't say MAX speed - just "cruise
speed". It would be close, anyway. I think I've seen -10's with both 12 and
3 inch numbers.

I was thinking that on my next order from ACS, I'd get whatever logbooks and placards
I'll need. I see on this page of ACS's catalog they have a nameplate,
and stainless steel ID tag on the top of the page.

I need both of these, right? I've seen the black on the side under the HS on -10's.
Where would the nameplate go?

Is anybody on the list in Columbia, SC? We are flying in there tomorrow and
are looking for a place to put the -10 in the shade, whether a hangar,
T-hangar or shade hangar. If anybody is there or knows somebody there (KCAE
preferably), please let us know.

I went 12" not only for the cruise speed issue, but for the various
ADIZ-related issues and international issues. (You need 12" to fly
in an ADIZ, and these days who knows where they'll pop up next).
I know some others see no need for this, and in their case, they
may be correct. The *safe* bet (for 2005 and beyond) is to just
use 12", and that should be indisputable. There are even people
who have commented that they used small letters because it helps
avoid identification so they don't have to worry about enforcement
actions as much, which is kind of a funny way to argue, but valid
I guess if you're going to do something that might bring trouble
or be mis-percieved as wrong.
As far as ugly goes, I guess I'm an oddball. One of my favorite
aspects of my new paint is how nice the N-Numbers look. ;)

PS: On a humorous note....if you go 3", don't bragg to loudly
if the FAA is around as to how fast your -10 flies. ;)

We are definitely on the line with that little rule. Van's top speed of 211mph
is 183.353987 knots and 75% cruise is 201mph or 174.664225 knots. Probably could
get away with three inch but you need 12 inch anyway if you leave the country.

Hi all!
I am just finishing the rudder and was unable to get a rivet into the
skin and end of the R-1004. The plans call for putting in a
CCR264SS-3-2 on the other side which I can do but I can't seem to get
the other side because of the limited space. I thought of trying a
CCR264SS-3-2 on both sides but they are too long. Any suggestions?

Given that Van's published 75% cruise speed is 175kts at 2200lbs and 171
at 2700 with the 260 hp engine, unless you find some significant speed
tweaks, you aren't going to exceed 180kts CAS in cruise.
But as Tim mentions, there are considerations besides just going with the
minimum.

Note: You don't need 12 inch for Canada. But then, that's not really a different

I like 3 inch "just because I can" - another way to set yourself apart from the

A picture would help, but in absence, are you saying that you have no room
to get a bucking bar in there? If this is the case for the solid rivet,
have you tried to grind down an old cold chisel? Also with the stainless
steel blind rivets, you can put one in, bottom it out, then pull up just
enough to give you some more room, then push in again, etc.

Good post, Mark.
I for one am not yet an RV-10 builder, but plan to buy the Empennage kit and
start on it next winter (I promised my fianc=E9e at OSH this summer that I
wouldn=92t build another airplane for at least a year). I=92m spending my time
=93lurking=94 on this list and compiling my own archive of useful tips. Yours
will go on that list. I did some riveting when building the cowling for my
scratch=96built Pietenpol Air Camper, but not as good a job as I would have
liked. Your tips would have helped.
This list appears to be as helpful as the Matronics Pietenpol list.
Different mindset (here people are talking about which Autopilot or EFIS to
install, on the Pietenpol list the debates are over douglas fir versus sitka
spruce, or Aerothane versus latex house paint). On both lists you wade
through a lot of junk but get the occasional gem, and you soon learn that
there are a few people on the list that it really pays to listen to =96 people
who really know what they are talking about. Thanks for posting a =93gem=94.

A lot of people are a long way into the project and there's a lot of talk
about painting and engines etc which is years away for those just
starting,so, for those who have just started I'll share a few things I've
learned so far (I know you can look up the archive but who cares).
Learning to rivet: it scares the crap out of all of us to begin with but
here are a few tricks I've learned. I have the advantage of working for a GA
airline and have access to LAME's and engineers etc and most of these tricks
they gave me.
1. When riveting flush rivets (AN426), run a line of masking tape either
side of the line of holes (on the gun side) and you'll find that the gun
doesn't wander around anywhere near as much.
2. When riveting AN470 rivets put a piece of masking tape over the machined
head of the rivet. You will very rarely miss another one or get another
smiley.
3. When driving 3/32nd rivets use about 35-40PSI. The longer the rivet
attachment the slightly higher the pressure.
4. When driving 1/8th rivets use about 65-70PSI. Again, when you need to use
a longer rivet attachment increase the pressure slightly.
5. Try as best you can to drive the rivet in one go rather than multiple
goes. Hold the rivet gun and bucking bar as square to the rivet as possible
and just let the bucking bar do the work. If your pressures are right you'll
see the head forming before your eyes and it will feel right. There's no
other way to describe it.
6. Just have a go! By the time you get half way through the HS you'll wonder
what all the fuss was about. Then again, when you get near the end of the
elevators where you're expected to get your large hands into ridiculously
awkward positions to drive a rivet you'll feel the frustration creeping
back.

I went 12" not only for the cruise speed issue, but for the various
ADIZ-related issues and international issues. (You need 12" to fly
in an ADIZ, and these days who knows where they'll pop up next).
I know some others see no need for this, and in their case, they
may be correct. The *safe* bet (for 2005 and beyond) is to just
use 12", and that should be indisputable. There are even people
who have commented that they used small letters because it helps
avoid identification so they don't have to worry about enforcement
actions as much, which is kind of a funny way to argue, but valid
I guess if you're going to do something that might bring trouble
or be mis-percieved as wrong.
As far as ugly goes, I guess I'm an oddball. One of my favorite
aspects of my new paint is how nice the N-Numbers look. ;)

Subject: | Electric Aileron Trim #8 Screw Dimples |
--> RV10-List message posted by: Larry Rosen <LarryRosen@comcast.net>
I am installing you Electric Aileron Trim in my RV-10
On page OP38-4 Step 4 the instructions have me dimple the wing
access plate for #8 flush-head screws. I cannot find in the instructions a
step to dimple the aileron trim actuation assembly. Are these #19
holes to be left un-dimpled? Is the assembly to sit only on the
dimples in the access plate, because that is what will happen if the
holes on the assembly are not dimpled.
The response from Ken Scott at Vans is
Good catch. We've added a line to Step 4 specifying that #19
holes in the Actuation Assembly should be dimpled for a #8 screw.

TruTrak has modified the installation of the Roll Servo for the 10.
Instead of the push-rod connecting to the bell crank, there is a bracket
that attaches to the bell crank, and then the push-rod connects to the
bracket. The new push rod is shorter. Also, you will need an AN3-15A
bolt. According to TruTrak this modification was made to improve the
torque characteristics of the servo. Fortunately, if you installed the
servo the old way, the new bracket will utilize the hold you already
drilled in the bellcrank assembly. Attached is a photo of the new
installation.

Subject: | Lasar Ignition Horror Story |
--> RV10-List message posted by: "Ronald Grover" <rv8grover@bwdmail.net>
Listers:
If you own or are considering the Lasar Ignition System for your airplane,
read this and beware. Lasar Ignition came on my new Lycoming Engine from the
factory. A screw on the distributor cap backed out of my left magneto and it
took 364 hours of working back and forth to destroy the magneto. Unisons
service manual doesn't even have you look at the points until 500 hours.
After sending him pictures of the Magneto, the Service Representative at
Unison said that it was beyond the warranty period and couldn't possibility
be a manufacturing defect and they wouldn't pay for anything.
This all started with a 300+ mag drop on the Left Magneto. While looking for
the cause of the Mag drop, I removed the ignition lead caps and found the
left magneto distributor cap moving up and down. Danny King and I took the
magneto apart and found that one of the screws on the distributor had backed
out and had been working in the hole in the case. There was plastic, carbon,
and aluminum dust all over in the magneto.
Lessons learned:
Unison doesn't stand behind their top of the line Ignition System.
None of their dealers stock the 4771 magneto meaning minimum of 3 weeks to
get one.
The only way you can get one sooner is say A.O.G. and the distributor can
have it drop shipped from the factory overnight for another $45.
Aircraft Spruce had the lowest price of $601 plus $150 core charge.
I have bought my last Unison Product. If anything else goes wrong with the
Lasar system, I will remove it from the airplane and install P-Mags. A P-Mag
system is less than half the cost of the Lasar system and being a new
company, I'll bet you they would be very interested in a premature failure
of one of their components.

Yes, dimple the bracket. As you progress through the chapters, Van's stops telling
you to do some things and they assume you will know what to do. Cut's back
on the wording but it makes you spend more time wondering if you are forgetting
something.
BTW, those springs are a pain in the arse to attach. Just did it myself last weekend.

Glad you like it!
The primer that I use is of the German brand "Spiess Hecker" mainly a
car paint manufacturer, the base is PRIMER 4130/harder 3689, this is an
etching corrosion prevention, the second layer is FILLER 5120/harder
3368 which seals it off and at the same time it functions as the base
for the final paint for the outside body parts, it's very smooth to sand
down.
That's the reason that all my parts are primed at the outside also, I
see that most builders leave the protective plastic on as long as
possible, my former experience tells me that the longer it stays on, the
more difficult it is to remove, it can leave residue also in worst case.

Subject: | Lasar Ignition Horror Story |
--> RV10-List message posted by: "Dave Saylor" <Dave@aircraftersllc.com>
We have a customer using two LASARs on a Lancair 320. A few months ago,
with 120 hours on the mags, he reported a similar mag drop. He did the
troubleshooting and isolated the mechanical mag. A brief inspection did not
show any problems--points looked OK, all wires intact. He returned the mag
to Unison and waited for 2 months. They eventually replaced the mag free of
charge but would not tell us what was wrong. They were nice enough about
it, but it did take a long time, and it did fail suddenly at 120 hours.
The system is bulky and heavy, and it requires special tools to use.
What is the advantage to a more efficient engine when it's down for months
at a time?
I'd have a hard time recommending LASAR even over standard mags.

--> RV10-List message posted by: "Ronald Grover" <rv8grover@bwdmail.net>
Listers:
If you own or are considering the Lasar Ignition System for your airplane,
read this and beware. Lasar Ignition came on my new Lycoming Engine from the
factory. A screw on the distributor cap backed out of my left magneto and it
took 364 hours of working back and forth to destroy the magneto. Unisons
service manual doesn't even have you look at the points until 500 hours.
After sending him pictures of the Magneto, the Service Representative at
Unison said that it was beyond the warranty period and couldn't possibility
be a manufacturing defect and they wouldn't pay for anything.
This all started with a 300+ mag drop on the Left Magneto. While looking for
the cause of the Mag drop, I removed the ignition lead caps and found the
left magneto distributor cap moving up and down. Danny King and I took the
magneto apart and found that one of the screws on the distributor had backed
out and had been working in the hole in the case. There was plastic, carbon,
and aluminum dust all over in the magneto.
Lessons learned:
Unison doesn't stand behind their top of the line Ignition System.
None of their dealers stock the 4771 magneto meaning minimum of 3 weeks to
get one.
The only way you can get one sooner is say A.O.G. and the distributor can
have it drop shipped from the factory overnight for another $45.
Aircraft Spruce had the lowest price of $601 plus $150 core charge.
I have bought my last Unison Product. If anything else goes wrong with the
Lasar system, I will remove it from the airplane and install P-Mags. A P-Mag
system is less than half the cost of the Lasar system and being a new
company, I'll bet you they would be very interested in a premature failure
of one of their components.

Subject: RE: RV10-List: Vapor return for mechanical fuel injection
Well let me tell you about one instance of my fuel system starting to
vapor lock. It was a hot day this summer, about 96 deg. I was climbing
out at about 1000 fpm from 150ft airport elev. to 9000ft. when I was
passing through 5000ft I noticed the fuel pressure dropping from its
normal 19 to 21 psi to around 17.5. I turned on the fuel pump and the
pressure went to 28 psi. I lowered the nose and left the fuel pump on
for 5 min or so. Lowering the nose did the trick. Turned the fuel pump
off and the pressures were fine. I have a 1" scat tube running to the
fuel pump to cool it. Remember that with the heater controls turned off
that the unused heated air is dumped right around the fuel pump. I have
had no issues starting the engine when hot - 100 plus deg. The trick is
to leave the mix full lean and start cranking. After 5 revs or so if it
isn't running already start bleeding in some fuel with the mix. Starts
every time. 102 hours and counting. I am working on my IFR ticket for
the next few months. Randy

Vapor lock is NOT just a startup problem.
The following is an NTSB report from a crash near where my parents live.
The pilot and passengers were not hurt, and although it sounds like he
did everything right vapor lock still bit him.
-Jim 40384
NTSB Number: CHI04CA210
Narrative Type: NTSB FINAL NARRATIVE (6120.4)
The airplane was destroyed during a post-impact ground fire, following a
loss of engine power and subsequent forced landing. The pilot reported
he had landed and shut down the engine for a few minutes prior to
loading his two passengers for a local flight. The pilot stated the
airplane contained 35 gallons of fuel prior to the accident flight. The
pilot reported the engine "shuddered" during takeoff roll and he aborted
the takeoff. The pilot stated he then performed an engine run-up check
and the engine "felt fine." The airplane experienced a loss of engine
power while on the second takeoff attempt. The pilot stated he
maneuvered the airplane to land on a nearby road and it impacted a road
sign prior to coming to stop. An on-ground fire engulfed the airplane
shortly thereafter. There were no anomalies noted with the engine during
a post-accident operational test. The outside temperature at the time of
the accident was approximately 28 degrees Celsius. A condition known as
vapor lock can occur when engine heats the fuel lines and the contained
fuel becomes a vapor. This tendency is increased if the fuel in the tank
is warm, commonly as a result of high atmospheric temperatures. The fuel
vapor can result in partial or complete interruption of fuel flow to the
engine.
Narrative Type: NTSB PRELIMINARY NARRATIVE (6120.19)
On July 31, 2004, at 1519 eastern daylight time, a Piper PA-28RT-201T,
N77782, piloted by a private pilot, was destroyed during a post-impact
ground fire following a loss of engine power and subsequent forced
landing near Plymouth, Michigan. The airplane experienced the loss of
engine power while on initial climb from runway 18 (2,556 feet by 75
feet, dry asphalt) at the Canton-Plymouth-Mettetal Airport (1DS). Visual
meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident. The
personal flight was operating under the provisions of 14 CFR Part 91
without a flight plan. The pilot and one passenger were not injured. One
passenger reported minor injuries. The local area flight was originating
at the time of the accident.
The pilot reported he had landed at 1500 and shut down the engine for a
few minutes prior to loading his two passengers for a local flight. The
pilot stated the airplane contained 35 gallons of 100 low-lead aviation
fuel prior to the accident flight.
The pilot reported the engine "shuddered" during takeoff roll and he
aborted the takeoff. The pilot stated he then performed an engine run-up
check and the engine "felt fine." The pilot reported he taxied onto
runway 18 and set the engine power to 2,500 rpm and 38 inches of
manifold pressure. The pilot stated the airplane became airborne and
experienced a loss of engine power while on initial climb.
The pilot reported he switched fuel tanks, but there was no increase in
engine power. The pilot stated the airplane descended under some power
lines as he maneuvered the airplane to land on a nearby road. The pilot
reported the airplane impacted a road sign prior to coming to stop and
an on-ground fire engulfed the airplane shortly thereafter.
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspectors performed the on-site
investigation. The engine was removed from the accident airplane and
mounted on a compatible airframe for an operational engine test. The
engine started and idled without anomalies. The engine was then
accelerated to 2,200 rpm which yielded approximately 80 lbs of oil
pressure. The engine was then shut-off using the mixture idle cut-off.
There were no anomalies noted with the engine during the operational
test.
The closest weather reporting station to the accident site was located
at the Willow Run Airport (YIP), Detroit, Michigan, about 7.4 nautical
miles (nm) southeast of the accident site. The airport is equipped with
an Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS). The following weather
conditions were reported prior to and at the time of the accident:
At 1453 edt: Wind 230 degrees at 11 knots, visibility unrestricted at 10
statute miles (sm), few clouds at 5,000 feet above ground level (agl),
temperature 28 degrees Celsius, dew point -01 degrees Celsius, altimeter
setting 29.90 inches-of-mercury.
According to FAA publication AC 65-12A, fuel normally remains in a
liquid state until it is discharged into the air stream and changes into
a vapor. Under certain conditions the fuel may vaporize in the lines,
pumps, or other fuel components. The vapor pockets formed by the
premature vaporization can restrict the fuel flow through units that
were designed to handle liquids rather than gases. The resulting partial
or complete interruption of the fuel flow is called vapor lock.
Transfer of heat from the engine tends to cause vaporization of fuel in
the lines and the pump. This tendency is increased if the fuel in the
tank is warm, commonly as a result of high atmospheric temperatures.
Vapor lock can become serious enough to block the fuel flow completely
and stop the engine. Even small amounts of vapor in the inlet line can
restrict the fuel flow to the engine driven pump and ultimately reduce
its output pressure.
Narrative Type: NTSB PROBABLE CAUSE NARRATIVE
The loss of engine power at a low altitude due to a fuel flow
restriction caused by vapor lock. Factors to the accident included the
high atmospheric temperature and the road sign that the airplane
impacted during the forced landing.

I am a little confused as well. We have a Bendix injection system. We
haven't put a return line in. We do have an overflow line that just
runs
out the back of the cowling. The system can't be pumping much more fuel
that it is using or our fuel flows would be higher. When burning
6.5-7gph @
17,500, I can't imagine that we are actually burning less than that and
wasting a significant amount. Is the main issue here vapor lock? Would
this system not work the same way whether you have a return line or an
overflow drain line? Running the boost pump is going to do the same
thing
any, right. I am not much of an engine guy, so please let me know where
I
am wrong. Also, if vapor lock mainly a startup issue, or are we needing
to
worry about this while we are flying? We certainly haven't had any
issues
with the system during our 150 hours in the air, but if it is an
accident
waiting to happen, it doesn't matter how many hours we have flown the
wrong
way, we want to fix it.

It depends on the brand fuel injection used. TCM and Bendix do not use a
common rail, they send fuel to a distributor that sends it to individual
injectors. Bendix regulates the fuel flow at the fuel servo, and only
fuel
needed goes to the distributor and injectors. Fuel pumps are self
limiting, returning excess pressure to their low pressure side. TCM
(Continental) is different, and does use a return loop. I don't know
what
aftermarket systems use.
There isn't much in common between aircraft injection systems and auto
systems. Aircraft still use continuous injection, most cars use
individual
timed injection for better emissions control. Aircraft distributors are
pressure controled, so when pressure drops below a preset minimum, no
fuel
goes to the injectors, allowing idle cutoff.
Lloyd, Daniel R. said:

closed.
That makes more sense. I have not flown behind an IO engine,
just
standard. Now maybe you can explain to me, is it like in an
auto, where
there is allot more fuel going to the rail then is used, causing
a
return line to be necessary? or does it only pump what is
required/
used? I thought fuel injection meant a looped system, where only
the
portion of fuel that went to the injectors was used and the rest
sent
back to the tank?

He must mean the fuel pump mounted on the engine. That is where the
heated air is dumped when the cabin heat is turned off. It goes right
into the engine compartment below the mags and right by the fuel pump.

portion of fuel that went to the injectors was used and the rest

When I spoke with TruTrak, I warned them that when I post the new
bracket to the RV-10 group they will get a lot of requests. Their
response was that there were not that many kits out there. I don't
think they would automatically send out the modified bracket and push
rod. If you have not yet installed the servo, I would wait until you
have the new bracket.

When I got my Servo from Stein, it did not have the pushrod. I assume
this is part of the Van's supplied hardware in the wing kit that I
haven't gotten to yet? If so, the new piece wouldn't be in my wing kit
so I'd have to get one of those?

What dates are you talking about? I'm going to be in Louisville the 7th-13th so
if you want to show off your plane let me know. No big deal though if you're

The plane will be there the 7th through the 14th. My dad will be in
Louisville at a conference, but he may be interested in showing it off a
little. I can give you a cell phone number for the guy that will be with
him if you want to check it out (Brad Burnett - 352-361-4848).

That was me. My seamstress got overwhelmed in her day job and has yet to do
the measurements on Randy's plane. We won't be ready for about a month, but
do plan on making the kits available. Probably best to spend full fare if
you want them in a hurry.

Subject: | Strange request/offer |
I have some stuff at Van's that I ordered from Spruce to have sent to
Ecuador in a container. It turns out we are learning the hard way that
shipping hazmat stuff in a container is extremely (how can I emphasize -
EXTREMELY!!!!!!!) complicated and expensive. Now I am having Spruce get a
quote on shipping the stuff directly down there, but now I have about $500
worth of stuff sitting at Van's that I need a home for. I have a friend who
will probably be able to go to Van's and pull the stuff out of the boxes,
but he doesn't need it, so that is where some of you may come in (those that
may live around there). If anybody wants to buy some of this stuff without
paying the shipping cost (and I am sure we can work out some kind of
discount), please contact me off the list.
Here's the list (with quantities):
1 West System Epoxy 205 Hardener - Qt
2 West System Epoxy 206 Hardener - Qt
2 FE6026 Parts A&B
2 AKZO Nobel Epoxy Primer - 2 Gal
24 Tempo green Zinc Chromate A
I look forward to possibly hearing from some of you!

James,
It did the same thing to me. Our zip code changed about 2 yrs ago but not everyone
has figured it out. I just used the old zip code which is still valid. If
that doesn't work, just try a different zip which is close to you.
