Has anyone installed the Sam James cowl for the RV-10 and flown with it? I
wonder what speeds/temperatures occur with this cowl.

Zack,
At first I thought the same thing, make sure the flap leading edge is up against
the rear spar, that is it's neutral position. If your bottom skins are not on
wait until they are before pressing the bushings into the flap brackets because
the skins can't slip over the hinges. The bushings made the difference for
me. I found as all the hardware was being installed everything seemed to line
up fine after it was fully installed, torqued etc.

I just sent Barb at Vans a list of the items to omit from my finishing
kit. I previously had her send me an inventory list of the kit, so I
knew what was there. As I want to leave my options open for a James
cowl, I omitted the cowl top, bottom, left/ right inlets, oil door and
core, and all the spinner parts (7 items). I also omitted the tires and
tubes, as I like the leakguard tubes and better tires. If anyone wants
the actual part numbers of the cowl / spinner parts to omit, I would be
happy to fax the list, and save you and Vans the trouble.

Absolutely. Then everyone can just look it up.
I did some updating today of the paint tips to include something sent to
me by Rick Sked, regarding where to paint the cabin if you're getting
Abby's interior: http://www.myrv10.com/tips/painting.html
Also, just got some air-to-air photos posted from last night.

Here is the IO-540 & Finish kit contents. I don't have the stuff
crossed out but it is basically what Chris listed below. I plan on
putting together a list of exclusion items based on my engine config
once I get to that point. My engine is the BPA IO-540-X with the cold
air induction. I will be using the special James cowl (for the cold air
induction) and also their plenum.

For those who get the digest version, and for other references,
I've added Michael's file here:
http://www.myrv10.com/tips/kits/index.html
along with other kit parts lists I've had posted there.
Back-up one level for the tips index:
http://www.myrv10.com/tips/index.html
If anyone ever has any updates to contribute, that would be
great. It would be nice to have someone's packing list
info for all the various kits shipping today.

I just sent Barb at Vans a list of the items to omit from my finishing
kit. I previously had her send me an inventory list of the kit, so I
knew what was there. As I want to leave my options open for a James
cowl, I omitted the cowl top, bottom, left/ right inlets, oil door and
core, and all the spinner parts (7 items). I also omitted the tires and
tubes, as I like the leakguard tubes and better tires. If anyone wants
the actual part numbers of the cowl / spinner parts to omit, I would be
happy to fax the list, and save you and Vans the trouble.

>From your description I have the same flap/aileron trailing edge aligment issue
on one wing (less than 1/4" as I recall). A couple of folks have looked at it
(including the local EAA tech advisor) and no one has pointed at anything that
might be amiss.
One of the guys on the Vans builder line said that I might have warped or
twisted the flap slightly and that could attribute to the funky edge. I voted
to not build a show plan and just keep on going as nothing is falling off.
Hope this makes sense.

Forgive me if this is in the archives, but I have a question about the Aileron
and Flap trailing edges.
After mounting the flaps and ailerons onto the wing, the trailing edges do not
match up. I was kind of hoping they would since the wings and flaps were not
built in jigs per say. But they didn't.
To make everything line up, I need to pull the 2 flap attach bolts (wing root
bolt left on). The flap actually needs to be raised a little (wing is vertical
in the jig) to make the flap parallel to the top skin rivets. Then, the bolt
holes don't line up. Bummer!
Has anbody else seen this and if you did, what did you do about it?
Zack

Rick and Jay,
Thanks for the replies. I just found out that I indeed have a "twisted" flap.
You have to take great care when builing those long pieces. Inducing a twist
or warp is very, very easy.
My flaps are so bad (in my opinion) that I need to redo them. I will try drilling
out the trailing edge rivets and use a heat gun to break the 2216 epoxy.
If I booger it up, Vans will get more of my money!
For the rest of you building the flaps, take great care to follow the instructions
and make sure you have a flat table and weigh the flap down like the plans
call for.
Zack

I had no idea Van's was offering the Plane Power alternator until I
called to order my FF kit and asked to drop the "standard" from the kit.
That's when they asked me if I had heard of PP and turns out that is
exactly what I wanted anyway. FWIW - the installation sheet that came
with my unit says it's p/n 99-9900 and the drawing lists AL 12-EI60/B.
Hope that helps...

It's the 260HP Lycoming IO-540 "experimental" engine. No real mods to
it other than 9-1 pistons and Allen's cold air induction. Don't forget
Lycoming offers a, more expensive and heavier, cold air induction so
this really isn't anything out of the ordinary. The "I" in IO-540 means
it is fuel injected. I will have the Airflow Performance FMS-300
injector system and dual Lightspeed III electronic ignition which are
also very popular in the experimental world.
Will James is making two different cowls for the RV-10. One fits the
stock 540 and the other fits the 540 with the cold air induction. They
both will fit on injected engines but the plenum may need a tiny bump in
the top for the AFP purge valve.
VNE isn't an issue for me. For one I am probably going to do a three
blade MT prop and for two I have the go fast/slow knob to keep me from
breaking the speed of light. As for HP, we will see. I seriously doubt
it will be anywhere close to 300HP. Especially with the chastising
Allen give's me about using dual LSE III ignitions. He sees better HP
out of mags on the dyno. :-)

Is that a 300hp engine? Is that fuel injected? Can you use that

missing
something here. Yeah, the air hose can be a pain, but it is a lot

most cordless drills will not give the speed needed for drilling alloy!
Refer to Vans notes on this.

Are you serious? You are toting around a heavy cordless drill,
worrying about keeping batteries charged, and turning slowly while
building an airplane that has about 50,000 holes to drill? I really
hope I am missing something here. Yeah, the air hose can be a pain, but
it is a lot easier than toting around a backpack compressor. You would
have to pry my air drill out of my=85well, you know how that goes.
Anyway, I hope you really aren=92t building an airplane with a
cordless drill.

Thanks guys for your input! I'll continue drilling with a #40 once
my compressor works again, need to fix it (what a waste of time).
I found the air drill a pain to use. First there is the cord that
seems to hook up on something and then there is that noisy compressor
that keeps kicking in. I just purchased a Black and Decker, "firestorm"
14v cordless drill kit. It comes with 2 batteries, and a charger that
will charge them both at once if needed. It also has a drill chuck that
pops off and makes it an easy bit driver (important in FLA, since i just
installed 93 hurricane panels with a bit driver). Since i switched to
this life is easier... i was using a corded drill, still easier then
the compressor.

Michael,
The plenum looks fantastic. It's probably been on the list before,
but
would you mind sharing the price? Also, please advise how good the fit
is
and what you needed to do to install. It looks very promising and
probably
will seal a lot better than my current setup.
Thanks,
Marcus

Make sure you let us know how it fits and performance. Is he going to make a
cowl for cold air induction with a larger opening in the bottom of the cowl?

Does anybody know it this plenum will fit the Van's cowl? It looks like it
should, although the intakes would require some glass work. The top looks
like it would fit. It would be nice to have a plenum made for the Van's
cowl if this one won't do it.
By the way, the Mattituck TMXIO-540 arrived today. It's a good looking
engine and hopefully even better running. You'll notice the oil filter
adapter is not straight back, which should make working with it much easier.
The other one is a pain, and there is no way to get a torque wrench on it
without a long wrench/lever on it, which adds all kinds of fancy
calculations into the mix, of course.

I believe it's supposed to. But as you stated it will require a little
work around the intakes. The plenum is more efficient so it doesn't
need as large of an cooling intake. This was one of the big advantages
in speed that his cowl and plenum combination have made in the past.
Give Sam a call directly and he will be happy to chat with about it.
The price is $450.
There are some pictures of the stock engine cowl on his website under
"projects" I know he made changes for the Cold Air but haven't seen
them yet. He is supposed to have a cowl at Barrett's booth in OSH.

I am not arguing the value of air drills vs. electric drills. I=92m
just
arguing the point as it applies to building airplanes. If you are happy
with yours, that=92s great. I wouldn=92t use an electric slow drill
(comparing
your electric highspeed handpieces to turbine handpieces isn=92t apples
to
apples. You would have to compare a 300,000 air handpiece to a 25,000
electric. Yes, the electric would have more torque, but it would take a
lot
longer to get through enamel. I=92m not a dentist, but I do make
handpieces.)
for final-drilling my skins with the substructure because it would just
be
too slow. With the air drill you barely touch the hole and it=92s
drilled,
which is where the weight really makes a difference. Size also makes a
difference in tight places, where the 5/8=94 or so from the center of
the bit
to the edge of the drill allows you to drill holes with a normal bit
that
you otherwise may need a long bit for, or an angle drill. There is also
the
issue that someone mentioned of drilling aluminum slowly. I understand
that
Steel drills better when you are going slow, but aluminum seems to drill
a
lot easier when you are fast.
If you like your battery drill, more power to you, and more power to
your
arm from the exercise. Enjoy!
