I also change my oil and filter every 25 hours. In addition I take an
oil test sample and send it off to try and catch any abnormal wear
issues.

I've seen lot of -10's (including Van's) with a seat belt strap holder
mounted overhead on the canopy between the front seats. How are people
attaching it? I drilled mine between the doors near the front door
hinges and there is foam between the layers of fiberglass. I could
either pull rivet it (but then it is not easily removable for the
headliner, etc.) or drill through the whole top and use flat head
screws.
Just wondering what others were doing

I generally use LPS spray lubricant on all moving parts of the control

I've got to order some from AS&S this week, Bill. Do you want me to
order a can for you as well?

Subject: RV10-List: Should the aileron bellcrank bushing be lubricated?
I'm in the process of installing the aileron bellcranks. Should they
be lubed in any way?
The parts include an AN4 bolt, going thru a brass bushing that goes thru
the 4130 steel bellcrank body.
It seems that a light application of something like lubriplate would be
a good thing, but I hear that some bearings can be damaged by
lubrication (by holding abrasive debris in place)..
I also have some unfinished steel surfaces at the ends of the bellcrank
shaft where I filed away the powdercoat. Seems to be that those
surfaces should be lightly lubed. I'm thinking that primer or paint
will be worn/wiped away very quickly.

His is probably an outlier, if the average engine overhaul time is just
that, an average. But there is no doubt whatsoever that changing the oil
frequently leads to longer engine life, and is perhaps the cheapest of the
preventative medicine options available. Clearly other factors are
involved, most of which are related either to heat or vibration (balancing).
I'll be using normal oil and frequent changes.

For what it is worth, I was told by my cylinder manufacturer buying cheap
oil and changing more often is the best choice. Of course, all bets are
off, I think, if you fly your plane very often. There is a guy in our area
with 3000 hrs on his engine and still ticking away. He has accumulated the
hours in a very short time and changes oil every 25 hrs and oil/filter every
other 25 hrs.

25 days roughly and the guys around the airport say that I could definitely
go to 50 hours with no problems even with straight 100 oil. So if I can go
35-50 hours (again depending if a bigger trip is coming up) and use
semi-synthetic that would be great for the work load.

Subject: Re: RV10-List: Oil Changes ( how often )
I'm usually trying to do it a bit before 50 hours, usually 35-45 hours
into a change. Depends on the situation. If I am flying a long trip,
I try to get it done before the trip. Depending on who you talk to,
you'll hear 25 to 50, with the 50 being only if you have a spin-on
filter...which we pretty much all do. It will only be better to change
it more often, but depending on your oil choice, it can cost a lot
to stick to a strict 25. I do also do oil analysis at every change
to get a trend going for monitoring.
Clean oil is your friend though, so you're doing great if you keep
up on the 25.

If you don't want it under the same nuts as the door hinges, you can pop
rivet a plate with nutplates in it to the cabin top and screw into the
nutplates. This is a good way to fasten a lot of different things to the
cabin top where desired.

when used or do you make them just loose enough that the belt just slips

They do bend down some, but just use a little stiffer material
and they'll stay pretty good. They're plenty loose to
just slip the belt in. When solo, I can leave the other
belt in, but the buckles jingle, so I usually pop it out
and let it sit on the back seat. I attached a photo that
I dug up that was in the photos area of my site. It's
the hangers Van's RV-10 has. Mine are a little wider, and
I attached them to the rear door hinge instead of the front,
but the concept is the same.

Thanks Jack but I'll be placing an order for other stuff within the week
- one way or the other.
BTW, I flew into Cox Monday evening. An uneventful downwind/uphill
landing - great fun. Didn't have my cell or would have called. Nice
place! I'd love to watch that dusty M20 fly in and out.... maybe not.
Stop by for lunch soon or I'll be calling you for the dreaded top wing

Jim,
Thank you for an elegant solution. I was just thinking last night, how
am I going to move this thing around after the tail cone is attached?
What timing:)
Thanks again,
Vern Smith (#324 ready to attach tail cone)

I just moved mine about a month ago. I had made a set of wheels and
bolted them to the wing spars. My 16 year old sons and I rolled it onto
a 18 foot trailer with 4 foot ramps. I don't have scales but I can pick
up the front by myself. The CG in this configuration is somewhere
around the front part of the rear seats.
I unloaded it from the trailer by myself at the airport. The wheels
were great.
Picture is attached.
These are coming off in the next week or so for the real legs!

| Subject: | Overhead Seat Belt Holder Attach |
I usually suggest hooking up the unused shoulder harnesses to the seatbelt
when not being used. That's one projectile I would like to have "tied off"
if I was in an accident or in turbulence. When stuff starts happening, the
last thing you want is to have seatbelts dangling in your face. In fact, we
always leave the rear seat belts fastened as if someone was in the seat and
that also acts as a retainer for the baggage area in case something wanted
to fly forward in a sudden stop situation.

They do bend down some, but just use a little stiffer material
and they'll stay pretty good. They're plenty loose to
just slip the belt in. When solo, I can leave the other
belt in, but the buckles jingle, so I usually pop it out
and let it sit on the back seat. I attached a photo that
I dug up that was in the photos area of my site. It's
the hangers Van's RV-10 has. Mine are a little wider, and
I attached them to the rear door hinge instead of the front,
but the concept is the same.

Sorry, I took so long to post this picture. Here is a shot of the access hole

With the throttle quadrant I have it is much more difficult to gain access from

I cannot find my instructions but I understand the manufacture recommends to check
after the first 10-20 hours, then at every annual.
You can replace it but it is made to be cleaned. When I checked mine I for sure
thought I would find at least a small piece of pro-seal but nothing but a little
piece of lint.
The whole purpose of the tunnel access was to remove the fuel filter, unscrew it
and check it. It does also make it easy to inspect the whole fuel system for
leaks.

Van's sends you Section 31Q and 41Q to replace your original plans
sections when you get the quadrant. (They didn't automatically send
mine, but I had to get them from them, which they provided

Ah yes, I now remember that...it bit me too. Well, at least I wasn't
alone. When you get to the one under-panel bracket, it's backwards.
So, line it up for logical assembly before you rivet.

John,
Attached is a set of instructions.
Someone else may want to build a set.
How about we do this.
You pay the shipping and you can "Use" these. When finished they have to be provided
to another -10 builder (Who also pays to have them shipped).
I will have to figure out how to box them up.
Provide me a "ship to" address (Off List!).
