    Subject: wingtip suggestions
    From: "Eric_Kallio" <scout019@msn.com>
    I am finishing up the wings so I can start to inventory the fuse kit and am having issues with the wingtips. The left wingtip is about 1/2 inch short but it is straight so I can just lay-up and sand down successive layers of glass. The right wingtip however is both 1/4 inch short and the trailing edge is about 3/8 inch below the rigged aileron and flap trailing edges. Hopefully I was successful at attaching the pictures below. Has anyone had this same issue and came up with a good way to fix it or any suggestions? Otherwise I will probably cut off the end aft of the tip rib and layup a new trailing edge. Thanks.

    Eric, It's difficult to see from the pics attached, and pictures can sometimes be deceptive. In the picture that looks outboard it appears that the aileron may have a twist in it and that might account for some of the misalignment. ? :-\ Deems Davis # 406 Baffling / Plenum / Engine Stuff http://deemsrv10.com/

    Eric, The following applies to your right (don't know about your left). I just went through this last week. Your holes are probably off just a tiny bit (mine were). My guess is about a half the diameter of the hole. It doesn't take much. Here is what I did. Epoxy the holes closed. Sounds like a lot of work but takes about 10 minutes. (one day to harden) Temporarily install the tip rib (with tape or something). This really helps! Now reinstall but this time be much more careful about alignment as you cleco and drill. I used strap clamps. It will work out for you just fine. No easy fix. Good luck.

    Subject: Door Guides/Pins
    From: "zackrv8" <zackrv8@verizon.net>
    Dave has solved the magnetic pick-up problem for Van's door closed warning switch using the door guides he makes. He inserted a magnet in the "bullet" of the stainless steel door pin. This allows for the actuation of the magnetic pick-up switch when mounted on the vertical intercostal. Notice how the door pins do not extend pass the door edge. You will never scrape your fuselage with this system! I've tried many times to close the door with just the forward latch pin and have the aft pin not latch (as many RV10's do, including Vans demonstrator). Can't happen. The door guides have a "funnel" female shape so the door pins can guide in smoothly. If the door only partially closes, the door handle cannot be closed because the door pins hit the door guides! The door guides "rack" the door where it should go when in the closed position. Very good safety feature along with the door light switch.

    Subject: wingtip suggestions
    The trailing edge of your wingtip can easily ride too high or too low if you don't align it correctly before you drill the holes. Since the fiberglass is not very thick and is thus not super-rigid, it can actually "twist" around the radius of the leading edge, which will pull the trailing edge either up or down accordingly. At least this is my experience. I have usually seen that the tip is longer than needed, not shorter, but this could easily be a modification of the mold or a different in the lay-up of the glass. I agree that you should make sure your flap and aileron don't have a twist (more likely in the flap), but the tip can run high or low depending on how it is installed, independent of the aileron/flap rigging. If you see that the wingtip is not right, then you may want to either replace it or could probably find a way to re-glass your holes and redo them. I personally like the hinge installation format as it makes it much easier to install and remove as compared to 60+ screws, IMHO. Let me know if this installation interests you and you can probably salvage the wingtip if this even applies. I hope this helps.

    Dave, I will try to align the rib again. The pics are deceiving a bit. I never proclaimed to be a photographer. The aileron is straight as an arrow, picture is a bit off center. A twisted aileron would have gone into the scrap metal pile. I really had to wrestle with the wingtip to get it as close as it is. It has a real good twist to it. I will keep trying to reset it and see what happens. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=116210#116210

    Subject: What to get with the wing kit recommendations
    I looked in the archives and couldn't quite find what I should order with the wings. I also looked at Tim's site and maybe missed this somewhere. -Should I buy the strobes and positions lights now while building the wings? -Should I get the options Van's offers? Float fuel sender units, landing lights? - Should I get anything else? I would also like recommendations of places to get things and part numbers/ links, etc... I know Deems rated the LED lights he got very highly, he also has a link for it, however that site also says to buy the power unit and position lights elsewhere. William Curtis has a link to Strobes n more and I saw a kit for $159.. In summary I am looking for what people bought, the place and part number and when they actually put them in the wings. Thanks!

    Subject: Re: What to get with the wing kit recommendations
    I purchased everything from Van's with the wing kit: Aileron trim kit, Float senders, landing lights, strobe light kits, flap positioning system. They are all acceptable in my opinion and I am happy with them. Other options might be more attractive for various reasons, but I have no specific complaints. I installed the flap positioning system while I still had my fuselage in my garage. The float senders and aileron trim need to be installed before hanging the wings; but the landing lights and wing strobes were just about the last thing I installed prior to DAR inspection (so you have plenty of time to figure that out). You might want to consider if you want a heated pitot (I used the Falcon heated pitot and Gretz aero mount, both from Aircraft Spruce), and start thinking how the installation will work out before you get to that point in wing construction.

    Subject: What to get with the wing kit recommendations
    Pascal, Here is what I purchased while working on the wings. >From Van's * Aileron trim * Flap position system (don't need until way later in the fuse kit) * Fuel sending units * Conduit * Whelen taillight w/strobe * ELT/Strobe Power Supply mounting kit * Strobe wiring kit * Qty 2 HID Duckworks landing lights >From Others * LED Nav & Strobe lights from Jeff (same as Deems) * XPAK604X strobe power supply from Strobes N More. The mounting holes line up perfectly w/Van's ELT/Strobe mounting kit. * Gretz pitot mount from gretzaero (haven't yet ordered my pitot still trying to decide which one). None of the stuff really would be required to have with the wing kit if you didn't rivet the bottom skins and waited to close up the fuel tanks you could add everything listed above at any time. That said though I would recommend fitting the gretz when you are fitting the bottom skins. The leading edge landing lights I thought would have been much tougher with the leading edges installed. If you plan on running conduit through the wing you want to oversize the holes in the ribs to fit the conduit where Van's tells you to use the snap in bushings. Although possible to do while riveted in place it is much easier when the ribs are not attached to any structure. I drilled the inner rib holes slightly larger than the outside two ribs as this made it easier to thread the conduit through but still held tight on the ends. I didn't write down the sizes I used so having the conduit early to gauge the hole sizes would be a plus. I'm still on the fence regarding AOA but you might consider that with your wing kit if you plan on it. I already installed the stall warning mechanism from Van's but if I were to get an AOA system I doubt I would use Van's supplied stall warning kit.

    Don't forget the proseal :-) It is the only thing you will need to start. All the rest can wait. The other items that others have mentioned will be needed more towards the end of the wing build Conduit (if you are going that route) Gretz pitot mount (for a heated pitot tube) Aileron trim and then the lighting choices. For landing lights I chose the the LoPresti boom beams that they announced this year at S&F (the still do not have them listed on there web site <http://www.speedmods.com>) And for strobes and Nav lights I have the Whelen A650 style purchased from vans. Whelen should be out with a 12 volt LED version with the same form factor at OSH. I was told that the pricing will be very similar to the A650. We could only hope.

    Subject: GRT AHRS and Magnetometer mounting
    I saw in the archives Bob Condrey mounted the magnetometer in the tailcone and the AHRS on a shelf behind the instrument panel. I like this arrangement but have a question...Bob how did you comply with the +/- 1/2 degree pitch alignment between the two boxes? What is the 10's level line? Any other pictures or comments appreciated. Also wondered if anybody thinks it possible to mount a bent whip in the tunnel between the rear seats without bothering flight controls. Perhaps off to one side? I like having access to things down the road, I really dislike these closed off for good areas. THanks Chris Lucas #40072... skipping all around the fuselage

    Thanks Jesse. They drawings all look similar, but dimensions vary a bit. David Maib On Jun 3, 2007, at 9:20 PM, Jesse Saint wrote: I am pretty sure it is the C servo.

    Subject: Re: What to get with the wing kit recommendations
    I got all my lights from http://www.creativair.com/. HID landing lights, LED nav lights, wingtip strobes and power supply. Taillight/strobe from Vans. The HIDs, navs and wingtip strobes all fit under the wingtip lens. I will be installing them soon. No cutting the wing. Dave Leikam 40496 QB wings ----- Original Message ----- From: Pascal To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2007 4:22 PM Subject: RV10-List: What to get with the wing kit recommendations I looked in the archives and couldn't quite find what I should order with the wings. I also looked at Tim's site and maybe missed this somewhere. -Should I buy the strobes and positions lights now while building the wings? -Should I get the options Van's offers? Float fuel sender units, landing lights? - Should I get anything else? I would also like recommendations of places to get things and part numbers/ links, etc... I know Deems rated the LED lights he got very highly, he also has a link for it, however that site also says to buy the power unit and position lights elsewhere. William Curtis has a link to Strobes n more and I saw a kit for $159.. In summary I am looking for what people bought, the place and part number and when they actually put them in the wings. Thanks! Pascal

    Subject: Bob Nuckolls Seminar
    I just finished a weekend Aeroelectric seminar with Bob Nuckolls at EAA chapter 1158 in West Bend, WI. I can't say enough about this experience. Bob's presentation and class were outstanding. Bob is the kind of guy you would like to sit with for hours picking his brain. His knowledge and experience with aviation electronics is vast. I recommend this class to anyone able to attend. I came away with much more confidence that I would be able to dive into my electrical system and do a good job. He cleared up many myths and misconceptions about aircraft wiring methods and backed up all his ideas very clearly. All his methods are centered on safety, simplicity and also cost saving! I was surprised at how many things I thought I should have in my system that Bob showed us are not needed or could be done much simpler and for less money and safer too! It is obvious that he really loves to pass on all the experience he has gained and he is very good at it. Thanks Bob for a great Seminar! Oh yeah, Chapter 1158 has a beautiful facility and were great hosts for this event. Thanks EAA 1158! Dave Leikam RV-10 40496 Muskego, WI
