Subject: | Re: Everybody doing taxes?) |
Sorry - I'm sending this email as a means to procrastinate about
doing my Quarterly BAS (Business Activity Statement) and PAYG (Pay as
you go) tax to the ATO (Australian Tax Office).
Lighting Bus Lo = negative or ground for DC voltages.
Lighting bus Hi can be configured to accept various voltages.
Apparently the selection of incorrect voltage doesn't damage the unit
- see page F-27, figure F-13, note 4 of the installation manual.
I've just been through this with my 430. I have a Flight Design
Systems LC40e dimmer controller, which is basically a pulse width
modulated unit. Connecting the 430 to this produces a visible (and
annoying) pulse in light intensity. I fiddled with various settings/
offsets on the lighting setup on the 430, but found that none were
satisfactory to me - ie eliminated pulsation, but gave reasonable
response to turning the dimmer knob. The automatic setting using the
built-in photocell is entirely adequate for varying illumination
levels. The other answer would be to run a voltage straight through a
potentiometer to the 430 lighting bus, but the idea of wasting
precious electrons as heat makes me cringe!
Hope this helps

Thanks Indran. I guess I am a little surprised that the Lighting Bus Lo
is another ground connection. There are already two aircraft ground
pins on P4001. I didn't see anything in the lighting description to
indicate the lighting bus accommodates a negative voltage. I could find
no description of Lighting Bus Lo at all. But it sounds like I could
just use the photocell rather than a dimmer.
Mine looks like an aeroplane as well, but I know I have loooong way to
go.
cheers
Ron
BTW - thanks for reminding me about my BAS!!!

Jesse,
What about a two sided clamp for the center post similar to the Rosen
Universal visor? Should allow for both visors to move independently.

That could be done without too much trouble, probably. I could talk to
the machinist and design a base. The single visor will cover both
sides, just not both at the same time, so whoever is flying can use it.
How many would be interested in this setup? I have 20 people now who
want the visor, so that gets into a half-decent price for the base.
Doing a double base would probably take the kit with two visors to about
$350 or so.

That would work, but would be more complicated, would not look as good, and

Have you looked at a center mount that would allow 2 visors to hang from it,
one for each side?

Dave, I installed the "A" kit of the Advanced Flight Systems AOA
(http://www.advanced-flight-systems.com/Products/AOA/aoa.html) when I
was about where you are. I did not install the factory stall warner.
The AFS 3500 will be our engine monitor and backup EFIS, and it has
the ability to display and "speak" the AOA information. Nonetheless,
I'm leaning toward putting a separate AOA indicator smack in the
pilot's field of view, and am leaning toward the "PRO" model.
Does anybody have advice/opinions on this matter?
We're inventorying a friend's finish kit today and will probably
purchase it.

Subject: | Re: C-FXCS Flies.... |
I helped a local builder install the wings and ailerons this weekend and
we noticed that the aileron deflected up about 2-3 time more than it did
down on both sides. We didn't check the rigging yet but I wonder if that
is normal or if there should be equal deflection in both directions.
Thanks!

Aileron trim, I'd say. Make sure your flaps and ailerons are rigged
evenly, because that can make it want to roll one way or the other, but
burning fuel out of the left first would lighten that side. I doubt
there is much more weight there, just having you sit on that side alone
makes a little difference. Again, aileron trim and rudder trim will
make the thing fly like it needs to no matter how you are loaded, for
the most part.

RV-10 C-FXCS took to the air on Thurs Apr 5 with Colin Jordan at the
controls. He flew for one hour high power for break-in. The aircraft has
a heavy left wing, an oil leak on the pilot side, and I managed to
reverse the action on the aileron trim and the altitude hold. Colin said
when he landed that this was as close to taking off in a jet as you can
get without being in a jet. He was VERY impressed with the aircraft.
I delayed leaving on a weeks holidays so we could get the first flight
in, so I haven't addressed any of the issues as yet.
Question. What is the procedure to correct a heavy wing in an RV-10?

I can't find much on the search engine for avionics
cooling fans. Is there a consensus of opinion whether
it would be wise to install one in an IFR fitted
machine? I understand that some people do and some don't.

Most airplanes have this feature designed in to reduce adverse yaw. Perfectly normal.
Check your manual for what the actual deflections should be.

Subject: | avionics cooling fan |
It actually has more to do with what you are installing in the stack then
whether it's IFR or not. For example, things like Chelton screens, GNS-480
and some others have cooling fans built into them. Other things do not. If
you only have one radio like an ICOM installed by itself in the stack,
you're unlikely to need a cooling fan. But, if you ahve a full Garmin
stack, then it's a good idea. Some of the Garmin stuff has cooling ports
cast into the racks. The cooling fans are relatively cheap compared to the
cost of your avionics stack (somewhere around $150-250) and it's cheap
insurance for a $20-30K stack of avionics.
Perhaps of equal importance is not to just have a cooling fan, but some sort
of "vent" holes in the glareshield to let the hot air escape from. Do that
and you'll be in pretty good shape. So, in the end my recommendation is
that depending on your stack you may or may not need to install one.
Cheers,
Stein.

Probably wise to install in any aircraft.
Just put a thermometer on your glare shield in the summer. You can assume it's
considerably warmer where your radios are. Keeping them cool may prolong their
life.
Depending on your region, you may be able to get by with just an outside air vent
circulating air to keep the radios cool. Most places, especially in the summer,
there should be a dedicated fan for cooling the radio stack.
I'll stay away from the debate on whether or not just to use a standard computer
type box fan, or a dedicated TSO'd avionics fan.

It is called differential aileron throw. The idea is that a down aileron
creates a lot more drag than the up aileron. Basically it limits the adverse
effect of the down aileron causing a yaw problem.
less down more up.

Ailerons are rigged as differential. In order to offset adverse yaw, the aileron
traveling up moves more than the aileron traveling down. (Downward aileron
increases wing camber / lift causing more drag.)
No it's normal for the aileron to move up more than down. It's by design.

I helped a local builder install the wings and ailerons this weekend and we noticed
that the aileron deflected up about 2-3 time more than it did down on both
sides. We didn't check the rigging yet but I wonder if that is normal or if
there should be equal deflection in both directions.

Aileron trim, I'd say. Make sure your flaps and ailerons are rigged evenly,
because that can make it want to roll one way or the other, but burning fuel out
of the left first would lighten that side. I doubt there is much more weight
there, just having you sit on that side alone makes a little difference. Again,
aileron trim and rudder trim will make the thing fly like it needs to no
matter how you are loaded, for the most part.

Subject: RV10-List: C-FXCS Flies....
RV-10 C-FXCS took to the air on Thurs Apr 5 with Colin Jordan at the controls.
He flew for one hour high power for break-in. The aircraft has a heavy left
wing, an oil leak on the pilot side, and I managed to reverse the action on the
aileron trim and the altitude hold. Colin said when he landed that this was
as close to taking off in a jet as you can get without being in a jet. He was
VERY impressed with the aircraft.
I delayed leaving on a weeks holidays so we could get the first flight in, so
I haven't addressed any of the issues as yet.
Question. What is the procedure to correct a heavy wing in an RV-10?

The Dynons under Australian summer conditions definitely need cooling

Subject: | Dynon's AOA pitot |
I have installed the early heated pitot and they are sending me the
updated one. The install is easy with the Grets pitot mount. I used the
AOA and wired it up and ran the tubing but changed my mind on it and
went with Rob's AOA. I never have used the dynon aoa function. Randy

Has anyone installed and used the AOA pitot tube from Dynon. If so, what
are
your impressions? I saw on their web site that they offer a heated
version,
but Aircraft Spruce seems to only list the unheated version.

As a pilot, only two bad things can happen to you:
a. One day you will walk out to the aircraft knowing that it is your last
flight.
b. One day you will walk out to the aircraft not knowing that it is your
last flight.

If you want to hook it up to a stand-alone AOA guage, is that possible? It looked
like the only output was to the Dynon EFIS, is that true?

Subject: | Re: Dynon's AOA pitot |
It appears that it only works with Dynon. What I find interesting is that
all these EFIS companies are competing with one another and one company
might get ahead with a new release, but then other is soon to catch up and
then offer it with a lower price.
It seems that if I am going to use a Dynon as a primary or a secondary, why
spend the extra$$$$ for a seperate AOA unit.

Subject: | Minimum power required for level flight |
Hi,
This question is for those with flying RV-10's. Has
anyone noted the minimum power setting to maintain
level flight? Did you note the airspeed, altitude and
% power (MP/RPM) or fuel flow (leaned or not) +
loading conditions (gross, light, etc)?
Has anyone constructed a power required curve with
more data points?
100% 211 mph
85% 201 mph (8000 ft, 2200 lb 260 HP per Van's)
75%
65%
55% 180 mph (same)
45%
35%
25%
15% ??
Thanks!
Eric (40150 spending more time on my IFR than building...))

We're down here in the camper now and are getting ready for a great week.
We have N416EC here and I will be hanging around it a fair bit as well as
going through the vendor tents. If there is anybody who isn't able to be
here and really wants to hear the updates on a certain product, let me know
and I will see what I can do. I have internet here, so will plan to keep up
on the list stuff in the evenings.

Assuming the Hi bus is connected to a 14V dimmer cct, what is Lighting Bus Lo

If you run across any EFIS info, right now the 2 things I am most interested in
is Great Plains new addition to its EFIS and if Dynon is going to match it in
the next by next summer when I plan on placing my order for the main unit, which
ever brand I go with.
