    Will second that notion. I have responded many times before on the this subject. Contact me off list if you need or want help. Somewhere you have to turn the line 90 degrees to get it to the panel. I suggest using the ports with female threads & the 90 degree adaptor fittings that screw into them.

    I believe Toni Sustare, the guy with the overhaed console, has or is building window trim pieces for the 10. I'm guessing he will be at Ashkosh this year, he was at Sun-N-Fun. I've gotten lucky, I hope, and found a custom car upholstery guy who also does planes and he will be building a frame around my windows to be covered. Wayne Edgerton #40336 baffling baffles

    Subject: Re: Static Ports
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Anh, so far the responses are just like I'd say....probably just time to get a good static port system. Best now before you paint, so you don't have to drill your tailcone after painting. I have the Cleaveland. I know some have questioned in the past which brands are accurate and which have errors. So far, it looks like mine are accurate. I need to fly the box to see if the precision is perfect, but they really seem to be good right now. My guess is that perhaps people had issues with various ones in the past on other airframes, but on the -10 they don't have much of a problem.....the placement has more to do with the reading than the port, would be my guess. So anyway, as usual, the best fix is probably just digging through the sofa for some more quarters. ;) The nice thing about the ones that I'm using is it has allowed me to use nice 1/4" ID Tygon tubing that is real flexible and seals great with push-on fittings.

    Subject: Re: Headliner before cabin cover riveting?
    I bought a headliner that came with 1/4" of foam backing. Cut and peeled away the foam backing near the edge about 1" back, folded the fabric over and used a 3M L1300 (?) glue. I am pretty happy with the look.

    My wife did our headliner and she used piping around the window frames and edges. She glued in the piping (covered with the same headliner fabric) around the windows and then folded the edge under and glued it up next to the piping.

    Subject: Return from Oshkosh
    --> RV10-List message posted by: jwik <jwik@crary.com> I have a new scheduling difficulty and thought I'd take a shot at a solution from this group. My son and I are attending Airventure the 28th through the 30th. I now have a business meeting in Chicago on the 31st but my son needs to be back at work as well flying fire patrol in MN (building time). Home for him is Fargo ND. If by chance he could bum a ride back with someone on sunday the 30th, I could head down directly from OSH to Chicago for my meeting. We'd gladly pay our share of gas or maybe there could be some barter for a bi-ennial or Intrument compentency check as he is a youg single or multi CFII. Thanks - enjoy the list very much.

    Fellow posters As I try to read thru the 74 messages on the last list trying to get some useful information that I might incorporate into my build, I am developing carpal tunnel in my scrolling finger trying to get thru all the repeats of the previous poster's comments. (this time it's alternate engines). If everyone would just post their comments with a brand new message, not a response to someone else's, the new message would not repeat the previous ones, saving considerable bandwidth and scroll time. You could use the same subject in the subject line, so readers would know at a glance that it follows a thread. Just a suggestion. Chris Hukill do not archive

    Subject: Pilots need to know flap angle
    That=92s a very good question. I was up flying yesterday in N415EC and it seemed as though the flaps were down 3 degrees, or in the 0 position, however is best to say that. Depending on how you handle them, the best thing to do to make sure they are up in flight is to just leave the flap switch in the up position (don=92t get a flap switch with momentary up). This will insure they are up. If you have the positioning system, when you click down the first time, they will go from up 3 degrees to neutral, the second time they will go to 15 degrees, and the third time they will go to 30 degrees. 15 and 30 are pretty easy to see, and the other two shouldn=92t be a big issue if you just leave the switch up when you are wanting to cruise, or if you wonder, then push it up for a couple of seconds to see if they move up any more. An indicator would be nice, but I don=92t think it is necessary. I have seen others just put three pieces of colored tape on the wing with steps that indicate flap position from the pilot=92s seat. This is the easy and cheap way to have an indicator. Do not archive. Jesse Saint I-TEC, Inc.

I can easily provide a display to show a coarse setting (Ray Allen POS-12), a very exact setting (string pot) or simply do nothing. The do nothing choice corresponds to flaps all the way up or all the way down with a quick look out the window to confirm. Is knowing the intermediate angle useful? If so, how accurate?

    Subject: Electric Load analysis
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Conti, Rick" <rick.conti@boeing.com> Deems, I took a quick look at your spreadsheet, it's a good list. I would expect the SL30, SL40, and transponder to have two current draws. One when receiving and a higher one when transmitting. You might want to add the current draw of the starter when it's cranking. I have a completely electronic panel. Meaning my oil pressure gauge is part of the EFIS. Hence the EFIS must be on when I start the engine. The voltage drop on a 12 volt system when the starter is cranking is sufficient to "reboot" any electronics that are operating. That is why I opted for a 24 volt system. To give you some idea of the voltage drop during engine start, multiply the battery's internal resistance by the starter current draw. Then subtract that number from 12. That will give you the voltage available during start.

I don't recall seeing any posts previously that contained similar information, however with 37 flying examples I'm sure that there are some 'proven' examples. I'm leaning towards the Aero Electric Z13/20 architecture at the moment (had been planning on a Z14 but think it's overkill for me), which includes the endurance buss concept w/ a back-up alternator. I , for one would be REALLY excited to see ANY examples of what other builders have done (or are contemplating) in the way of their load analysis. I'm attaching a copy of my initial spreadsheet, and would welcome any review / critique that others may offer. Just remember that I'm no Sparky either and all this electron stuff is 'magic' to me. So be gentle with any critique. O:-) THANKS Deems Davis # 406 Fuse/Finishing http://deemsrv10.com/

    I've not in the market place, but it seems to me that if you are taking orders on a product underdevelopment, that is; that one hopes to deliver with in a 6 month time frame, then you are not taking orders to sell your product...you are discussing how individuals can become temporary investors in your product unless your deposit money will be held in escrow by a certified escrow company such as AOPA's escrow service. If a company cashes your check it is a sale--you've become part of their cash flow system and at 50% that's probably close to the raw materials future cost. If they don't deliver a product then you are a credit holder to the company awaiting the product promised. If they go Chapter whatever in the mean time you are generally at the back of the line with all the creditors and near the rear along with raw material supplies, non-secured creditors. I'd think 6 months is a relatively short period for a custom product but still they are not selling you a product but booking a future product...IMHO...and one should expect a healthy discount for the finance risk. I've got a real good buddy still awaiting a Delta Hawk engine...and it's said to have been deliverable more than two years ago, and it still has not seen the light of day. Please I'm not putting these two engine companies in the same grouping but in the aviation business there are lots of strange twist and turns.

    Subject: Re: Pilots need to know flap angle
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Totally agree. Plus, as Dan Masys mentioned, he can feel the stick pressure difference in his 7A. In the RV-10, you won't notice much going from -3 to 0. In fact, I rarely, if ever, use the 0 position. Then when passing to the next stop, you get a little stick force and trim it out. It's easy to see that you have the flaps in mid position down. But, when you finally go full flaps, the RV-10 has tons of re-trimming to do, with a much larger nose drop, and it's unmistakable from both flying qualities, and visual look of the flaps, that you are at full flaps. So you will definitely know on landing where you're at. If there's one time you may NOT know, it would be on a climb out. So far, on thankfully only ONE occasion, while being much too conversational with a buddy on takeoff, I did a touch and go and didn't retract the flaps. It climbed pretty well, but I didn't get airspeed to go over about 85kts or so. Right away that triggered the thought to check the switch, and sure enough, the switch wasn't up. One click and we were moving faster. As Jesse said, with the non-momentary switch, you just flip it up and if it's in the up position, the flaps will retract completely. I guess missing it once in 90 hours isn't too bad. Stick 2 pilots who are good buddies who haven't seen eachother for a year in the front seat, and you have the recipe for inattentive disaster, regardless of the indicators. ;) Nice thing the -10 still climbs well with full flaps!

    Anatomically speaking, the carpal tunnel is in the wrist! So unless you have an unusual way of using a keyboard, you're much more likely to develop it from bucking thousands of rivets.

    On my -9A I installed the Static kit from SafeAir1 and I am glad I did. When I had my pitot/static/transponder test done, the tech found no leaks and commented that the number one problem that he sees with RV avionics is the use of those pop rivets. He couldn't imagine why someone would spend so much money on an airplane and nice avionics only to attach it to a cheap and unreliable static source. Anyways, I'm sure there are folks who use the pop rivets with success. But I will be going with the SafeAir1 kit for the -10. By the way, I'll be up at Oshkosh all week, camping with the -9A in the homebuilt camping area.

That is why I opted for a 24 volt system. My GRT EIS has never rebooted during 12v. engine cranking, though if I happen to have left the GX60 on during a start, the GPS/Comm will occasionally do so while cranking the engine. Risk of this probably depends upon the particular EFIS unit you have. The Grand Rapids engine monitor has been the absolutely most rock stable and reliable electronic system in the airplane, which is one of the reasons I chose to go with their EFIS also for the -10. (Don't know yet if the EFIS will be as resistant to voltage sags as the EIS is.) -Dan Masys 40448

He couldn't imagine why someone would spend so much money on an airplane and nice avionics only to attach it to a cheap and unreliable static source. Anyways, I'm sure there are folks who use the pop rivets with success. But I will be going with the SafeAir1 kit for the -10.

    I'd assume it doesn't really matter. Can't the cosmo be just as happy burning 100LL as MoGas? I'd think the same is true of the Subie, but perhaps I'm wrong. One of the advantages, at least as I see it, to the low compression lycosaurs (ie - the 235HP B4B5) is the ability to burn MoGas or 100LL or any combination inbetween. -Brian #40497 N211BD Iowa City, IA ----- Original Message ----- From: GRANSCOTT@aol.com To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Tuesday, July 18, 2006 8:54 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Oshkosh Subaru Engine Specials Bob when you do a XC in the RV 10, how many airports will be stocking Mogas?

    Subject: Re: Static Ports
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Dan Benua <danbenua@yahoo.com> I installed fancy flush static ports in my RV-6A, and they worked fine until it started raining. As water droplets ran along the fuselage in flight, they wicked into the static port holes and caused dramatic (~200') altimeter and VSI gyrations. Since I was on an IMC approach at the time, I felt that a fix was needed. I solved it by drilling out the hole in each static port, installing an LP4-3 pop rivet, and driving out the mandrel; just like Van's suggested. The head of the pop-rivet protruding above the skin surface is just enough to keep the water drops away from the vent hole. On my RV-10 (not yet flying) I chose a compromise solution. I installed the pop-rivet static port as per plans, but on the inside of the tailcone behind each port I riveted fuel tank drain flanges (available from Van's). This allows for the installation of threaded fittings (Nylo-Seal 269-N 04x02) that transition to poly tubing (Poly-Flow 44-P). This solution gives a secure connection and a proven port profile; and a very low cost. - Dan Benua #40001 finish & fwf > I have read some comments that seem to say that the Vans static port kit is actually very accurate in spite of being cheap and simple. Does anybody have any comparison with the Aircraft Spruce and other more sophisticated systems? I know they look way better, but am interested in performance.

I have lots and lots of wires, and it held what I needed, but my conduits are 1" I.D. On my site I have the conduit type listed....really nice stuff. If you go smaller, I'd add the one on the sidewall for sure.

Actually, I did use a roller for the first coat of UV smooth prime on the cowl, ( http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/cmpages/09-28290.php ) and found it was a great way to fill pinholes and build up the surface for sanding.

I don't recall seeing any posts previously that contained similar information, however with 37 flying examples I'm sure that there are some 'proven' examples. I'm leaning towards the Aero Electric Z13/20 architecture at the moment (had been planning on a Z14 but think it's overkill for me), which includes the endurance buss concept w/ a back-up alternator. I , for one would be REALLY excited to see ANY examples of what other builders have done (or are contemplating) in the way of their load analysis. I'm attaching a copy of my initial spreadsheet, and would welcome any review / critique that others may offer. Just remember that I'm no Sparky either and all this electron stuff is 'magic' to me.

In a -10 all you need is sufficient airspeed, sufficient up angle on the nose before you start the roll, and maybe a little rudder to get the tail around. You're correct about a barrel roll. It can (and should be) a 1 G maneuver, but a good aileron roll will force you to push when inverted ....... and push a lot without a symmetrical airfoil wing ...... which puts you in negative G territory. I'm sure someone will roll a -10 and maybe even loop it. But that's an experiment that I'll leave to others. I'm a little older and a little wiser now. Linn do not archive

    Subject: The Final OSH countdown begins - Long, but sweet
    --> RV10-List message posted by: Tim Olson <Tim@MyRV10.com> Well, we made it down to the last few days before OSH. Many good things are in the works, and from the chatter on the list you can tell people are getting a bit giddy with excitement. Yes, I mean you guys from Las Vegas especially. ;) So far, there are roughly 157 people on the RV-10 OSH list. 27 of those are people who were on the list last year but didn't send in anything this year. Some may be flying (in fact, I know at least one is) 34 of them are people who can't make it to the show this year and who will be dying for us to take photos. That leaves just under 100 RV-10 builders on the list confirmed as going to OSH. Of those 96, there are 8 of them who will be there with an RV-10, and in Jesse's case, a possibility of bringing a pair. That's pretty good for an impromptu list....about 1/4 of the 610 kits out there are accounted for in this list. I'm sorry to act like a self-appointed leader of the group...really, I wish I was just along for the ride, but I have always found that in loosely knit groups, someone has to grab the reins and coordinate, for the good of the community...and in the end, everyone benefits from a slightly closer-knit group. I say this because I don't want to put people off by seeming somehow to be "in charge" of something... I just want to be part of the glue that keeps us together. In that respect, I want you to also know about the opportunities for this week that are now falling into place. DAILY: At 10am each day, the RV-10 builders who want to, will gather in the area in front of Van's booth. There were a few requests for 2 meeting times, so let's make the 2nd one be 2pm. The 2pm one may not be as large, as many people may be scattered by then, but it will provide a nice way to jump in and hear the rumors of where people will be at the end of the day. NIGHTLY: Boy are we lucky we have some great members! Bob Condrey has already landed in EAA's Camp Scholler, and snagged a few consecutive campsites for himself (Motorhome), Gary Specketer (Motorhome, landing on 7/19), and myself. There may be opportunities for him to save you a spot adjoining, or at least near the area, if you contact him. This area we will know as "RV-10 HQ", as during non-show hours, we'll be spending a lot of time there entertaining. Bob has provided a general map of the campsite here: (For OSH list members) http://www.myrv10.com/osh/RV10_HQ.jpg (For non-list members) http://www.myrv10.com/osh2/RV10_HQ.jpg The area is said to be partially shaded, and as you can see, it's very near the airfield, and not a long walk to the 4 central hangers in aeroshell square. You are welcome to swing by after the show any evening and you will very likely find people there to talk to. There may be a few times where we head out to dinner as a group too, and we welcome all comers. During the week, feel free to contact Gary, Bob, or myself at our cell numbers on the OSH list if you need help finding this place. WEDNESDAY @ 10am: Van's RV-10 forum (and other side-by-side models) in Honda Pavilion Tent 7. This has been OK in the past. I myself won't be there that day, but usually you'll see some -10 people hanging out after the forum. WEDNESDAY NIGHT: Bob Collin's RV BBQ. See here for more info: http://home.comcast.net/%7Ebcollinsrv7a/eaa/2006bbq.html If we get better coordinated, perhaps we can do a -10 version of this next year. THURSDAY NIGHT: Van's RV Banquet http://www.vansaircraft.com/cgi-bin/catalog.cgi?&browse=new&product=oshkosh-06 Surprising to me, but there are a gosh darn lot of RV-10 people including myself who will be at the banquet. I've never been there before, so I can't give details, but I know you must pre-purchase your tickets if interested. 6pm, EAA Nature Center Tent #2 on field. RANDOM: Everyone will be watching planes, spending way too much money in hangers A thru D, and gawking at all of the various RV paint jobs, and the completed -10's. I plan to hang out a lot at my plane, under a canopy this time instead of playing Chinese Sun torture. I'll be parking in HBP (Homebuilt Parking) during the show. (http://www.myrv10.com/osh2/shade.jpg) I'm bringing a couple extra chairs, for people to hang out. I do have one rule though for people who come.....don't just hang out there and let one single person manopolize....if you come up and want to say something, just bust right in and say "Hi". Everyone should be welcome to join in and be a part of the family. My wife will probably be there with me much of the time, and as long as you're not too young, muscular, and good looking with more hair than me, you're welcome to talk to her too. In the latter half (Thurs - Sat) of the week, I'll probably spend slightly less time near the plane, as I'll have kids along. If you have kids along, bring 'em on over and we can get them all hanging out. Perhaps we can send the significant other parents with the kids over to KidVenture or some other cool activity. There will also be other RV-10 builders at the show who will likely be more than happy to show off their planes. We'll probably be in the same general areas of the HBP and HBC areas (parking and camping). SPEAKING OF PARKING: Jeff Point is still hoping to get any headcount he can on RV-10's coming to OSH, and if they will be parking or camping. There is no reserved area, but they will be trying to have an area with slightly larger parking and camping slots, and they want to make sure they allocate enough room for our RV-10's. He's the guy in charge of these areas, so I'm trying to get the info and just turn over a count to him. Surprisingly, if we only have 8 planes on the list, that makes it just a fraction of the 37 flying listed on Van's site. Alex De Dominicis will have his RV-10 at Van's booth, so go look at his as well. He has A/C installed...which is my personal guess as to what the "significant" new product news is all about at Van's. AS FOR THE OSH/BUILDERS LIST: I plan to keep the list going, so as you complete kit sections, or especially, as you do your first flights, if you let me know, I'll update the list with your info. It'll be a great long-term resource for people. If you haven't yet updated or sent your stuff, you can go to: http://www.MyRV10.com/osh.html and get it in. I will be adding names up until about Saturday night or Sunday this week, but then I'm heading out and probably won't get much email access for the week. (Wednesday is an exception) So it's not too late yet. It would be great to see some of the other 3/4's of the RV-10 community join in, but I understand that not everyone likes being a part of a nice group of people. To each, his own....just like our choices in engines, primer, and everything else we do during our build. Once again, for the less current, no-contact-info, sample list, go to: http://www.myrv10.com/osh2 For those who sign on the list, you'll get an email back after I sign you on that has the info you need to access the main OSH list at http://www.myrv10.com/osh I only do this to help keep you from getting spam and phone spam after signing onto the list. It's way too for web bots to get tons of email addresses from a public list....so I keep it private. So there you have it, the plan as I know it today. Everyone who's coming, have a safe trip to the show, especially if you're flying in. So far I have no takers to fly over together, so I guess I'll just see everyone there. Weather permitting, I'll be on-field by Monday a.m. 9am at the latest. See you there, Tim PS: It's just surreal to know that last year my panel was hanging out in Stein's booth, power wired only, and my engine was sitting in Aerosport's booth. I came home after the show and had a rush of motivation to start completing the canopy top, doors, and windows in the August evening heat. It was the energy of OSH 2005 that allowed me to pour on the nearly 1000 hours that I put in between OSH and February to get things flying. Let's hope we can stir up some of that motivation in those who are building! -- Tim Olson - RV-10 N104CD - Flying do not archive
