    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Can anyone tell me if the Lithium battery is included already in the remote on the AK-450 ELT? I have the remote unit installed and need to send someone shopping for batteries for the ELT today and I'm not sure if I need to send them out for the 1 DL 1/3 NB Lithium AND the D-Cell batteries, or if the lithium is already in the remote....which is mounted in a hard to reach area from the back. -- Tim Olson -- RV-10 #40170 DO NOT ARCHIVE

    Great, simple effective technology, don't need to make it harder than it is. I don't see why the site seems to keep emphasizing not intended as a collision avoidance system, except for the obvious fact that not all aircraft will have the extended transponder mode available initially. All the key ingredients are there and a lot more accurate geo-coordinate positioning potential than what you can get out of Radar directly. I suspect as they gain confidence with the system that will change. aj Time: 09:31:30 AM PST US Subject: Zaon Traffic SystemZaon Traffic System From: "Tim Dawson-Townsend" <Tdawson@avidyne.com> You're too late - you've just defined part of what ADS-B is . . . http://www.flyadsb.com/ TDT 40025 ________________________________ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of ajhauter@yahoo.com Sent: Friday, February 03, 2006 12:25 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Zaon Traffic SystemZaon Traffic System Active certainly gives you more control, but passive coverage looks pretty good.

    ADS-B If ADS-B is going to replace the transponder interrogation and reply processing in today's working (albeit line of sight) system, what's to keep the ADS-B data from being preprogrammed to send out false information? Transponders provide altitude and proximity data based on tower interrogation and signal response and strength?. ADS-B apparently supplies digital data on 3D location, etc. Well anything digital can be recorded and played back. i.e. spoofed unless digital signature and private key infrastructure are employed to guarantee the sender is who they say they are, and the packet has not been tampered with and is coded with the current session key. This is being done today on the internet for securing transactions requiring session keys, pki certificates, etc. associated with secure transmission over the internet. What does the current ADS-B do to guard against spoofing the ADS-B system? After 911 we don't want to give away a system which is old for one that can be spoofed...

    Zack, Is Dave still making these replacement parts? and how can I order a set for my project? I saw you referenced a web site in one message. Does he have one? Jeff Closing up VS and Rudder ----- Original Message ----- From: Joseph Czachorowski To: RV10-List@matronics.com Sent: Friday, January 13, 2006 10:58 AM Subject: RV10-List: Trim Tab Cable Anchor Bracket Guys, Dave made up some anchor brackets out of 6061 aluminum billet. He copied the exact angle of Vans W-415 weldment (you know the part with the "tack welded" nut). Well, I installed the new aluminum bracket onto the elevator yesterday and it wouldn't fit real nice. Let me explain....The new bracket was drilled exactly where Vans says to put his w-415. After installing the trim tab cable to the trim tab and routing the cable thru the forward elevator spar, the trim tab access cover would not nest in its recess in the elevator without undue force. The angle of the bracket (25 degrees) made the cable bind when going thru the forward spar of the elevator. I doubled checked this with Vans W-415 part. Same thing. Did anyone else have this problem? Anyway, Dave came out, measured the proper nut angle (15 degrees), and made a new bracket. After installing the new bracket I am happy to say there is no more binding, thru the full range of motion of the cable, while it is attached to the trim tab. This thing fits perfect. Btw, I called Vans and talked to Gus about this. Gus's answer was to re-weld the nut at the proper angle. I told him I would have someone make up a aluminum bracket from billet. He said that would be best. Anyway, I caught this in time and Dave will send out all the brackets to those who already ordered from Dave, with this new 15 degree nut angle. He just has to make up new ones. Zack

    Subject: Trim Cable Anchor Bracket Installation
    Listers, I received my two trim cable anchor brackets from Dave the other day via UPS. Dave provided a great service and I would recommend that you all get your orders in. This is a great fix to a poorly designed bracket. I just finished replicating the two cover plates that they attach to. This had to be done because the bolt pattern is different from the original brackets. It took me about 2 hours to draw and cut them out of the aluminum pieces that came with the emp kit. I have decided that I want to be able to remove them from the access cover so I have dimpled the access cover and countersunk the bottom of the bracket. I am going to install them using stainless AN507C-632R6 screws with AN365-632 lock nuts. People have commented about the inability to rotate the older nut when mounted to the access plate. I felt that it would be much easier to adjust the cable relative to the anchor bracket by spinning the anchor bracket around the cable. I now have only to remove the cover screws and detach the anchor bracket from the cover to adjust/service the cable. I hope this helps. Dave Hertner 40164 - Emp finished ordering QB balance of kit.

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "zackrv8" <zackrv8@verizon.net> Jeff and fellow RV10 builders. Yes, Dave is still making these parts. If fact, he did a few more (see photos below). Dave is trying to put together an "RV10 Tail Kit". This kit will have many of the harder to make parts such as brackets, spacers and such. As I work on my tail kit, I ask Dave to make a part. He programs it on Solid Works and goes to town on the CNC. Dave is hoping to put the following items in this RV10 Tail Kit Supplement.... Horizontal Stab Attach Brackets (hard to make for the builder so Dave did it on the CNC with all holes predrilled! This is one bracket that must be done right because it holds the front spar of the HS Stab to the fuselage.) Trim Cable Attach Bracket. The supplied Vans part is a cheap looking part and binds the trim cable on my plane. Dave has a CNC billet one that is 3 times stronger with the proper angle. Pre cut foam blocks. Dave did mine on the CNC and they fit perfect! CNC milled static air ports. See photo. CNC cut brackets for the trim motor bracket and cables. More to come. Call Dave at 302-437-6087. He can answer all questions on parts and prices. Zack #40512 ( tail cone riveting tomorrow! Wings ship next Monday!) [quote="jdalton77(at)comcast.net"]Zack, ?

    Subject: Fuel sender and Pitot mount question
    Looking for suggestions on inspecting the fuel senders to verify they are moving freely all the way up and down in the tank. I have quickbuild wings and did not have the luxury of installing them before finishing the fuel tank. I believe they are hitting the stiffener and not going up between the fuel vent line and stiffener............thus not going UP completely. This would show a tank less than FULL. Any ideas? I also have a Dynon pitot mount bracket/pitot. It is angled to go under the lip of the wing spar with 3 rivots. I am also running angle aluminum 90 degrees to the front lip along the bottom skin spar............is it recommended to use a doubler plate like the GRETZ model also? Appears to be very sturdy without a doubler plate. If any one has pics of their Dynon bracket mounted I would enjoy seeing them. Thanks, DEAN Try Juno Platinum for Free! Then, only $9.95/month!
