I wouldn't order the strobe kit yet. That mounts, normally, back by the
battery in the tail. It might not be a bad idea to order Van's strobe/ELT
mount kit so you can get that installed ahead of time. Some people at this
point would order some antennas if they are going to be mounted in a place
that will be hard to get to later. Some would go ahead and start on your
wiring and panel installations. If you are going with Van's wiring harness
(which really is a good place to start if you are a beginner in wiring and
plan to do it yourself), then it would be a good thing to go ahead and get.
The Flap Positioning system might be a good thing to order now if you are
going to get it so you can find a good place to mount it before getting too
far along. I would go ahead and decide what conduit you are going to use
and get that as well as any mounting hardware you might want. If you are
going to make access panels in the rear seat floors or baggage floors, you
might want to get the access panel parts like were used in the stall warning
installation in the wing. Go ahead and get some extra snap bushings if you
are going to use more than that normal amount of wiring run holes.
This is everything that comes to mind.

Subject: RV10-List: Stuff to order with the fuse kit.
Hi
I just received notification from Van's that my fuse kit (slow build) will
ship in early Feb. Is there anything I should be ordering from Van's as
well? As I am doing QB wings, Van's advised that I need the wing center
section so I have that covered. I have also ordered the RV10 flap positioner
kit.
I thought I might order 25' of plastic conduit for the fuse wiring as well.
Should I get the strobe kit now or wait? All suggestions gratefully
accepted.
Inquiring minds need to know...

Snap bushings, rubber grommets of many large sizes, extra rivets both solid
and blind rivets, some extra aluminum to make the stiffners for the access
panels, get the strobe wires, the wire for mics and headphone jacks. Wire
for any interior lighting after you think about where it will be mounted.
Get the battery cable you will be using. Sorry, this is all I can come up
with but I know there is more.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have amended my order to include the bushings,
grommets, access plates / doublers, conduit etc.
Cheers

Van's has a strobe power supply mount you may want to look at.
Also this is a good time to decide if you are going to stick with Van's
aluminum heat bypass valves (part # TG 10 L & R they mount on the
forward side of the fire wall) or replace them with stainless
aftermarket valves. Don at www.aviacompworldwide.com makes a nice set.
If you go this way delete the originals out of the fuselage kit and save
the 20% restocking fee from Van's. Difference in cost between the
stainless and aluminum original equipment is about $60.
Do get the extra rivets. AN426 3-4; 3-4.5; 3-5; 4-5; 4-6; 4-7. I've run
into a number of places were the rivets called out were too short or of
marginal length. The primary offenders seem to need the 3-4 and 4-5.
If you are thinking about a Trutrak autopilot you could get the servo
mounts and wire harness. No need to get the servos yet. I've had great
customer service from www.steinair.com. This is more of a wings item.
Nice choice on QB wings and SB fuselage. I've done everything slow build
and am really enjoying building fuselage.

Michael: I adjusted, readjusted, adjusted, readjusted, etc. and could never
get good clearance---even had a old gastrocopy scope from work that gave me
a very good picture of what was happening. Ended up rotating the float 90
degrees to get better clearance. Checked this with Van's and they said "no
problem". Of course, I am only on the fuse now so it hasn't been "flight
tested". Jay Rowe 40301

I think I may have found that magic tool...
3M (of course) do a 3mm thick unitized cut & polish wheel.
Available in 3 diameters 38, 50 & 75mm.
Tried one tonight in a right angle die grinder... seemed to work very well
