I mounted my marker beacon antenna between the rear seats. No problem with
pushrod or rudder cable interference. I mounted the bent whip antenna under
the passenger seat. You don't want the bent whip antenna too far aft as it will
get closer to the ground during takeoff rotation and landing flare /
aerobraking the further back you mount it. Pictures attached.

I don't think between the rear seats is a good place for an antenna. The
control rod is so low there that I think it would be too risky to have
anything sticking up from the belly skin there. One possibility for a bent
whip is to put it under the baggage floor (with nutplates in the skin), just
off center, and then you can either get at it through the lightening holes
or you can put in an access panel. I wouldn't put an access panel under the
rear seat floor because there has to be some structural reason that there
are no lightening holes in that area. Has anybody had any problems putting
them under the front seats, one on either side? I seem to remember someone
mentioning that the gear legs can get in the way. We haven't tested them,
but have very good reception with that arrangement.

It does not matter where the level line is, that will be taken care of
during alignment procedures, what does matter is that both are with in
the tolerance difference. The easy way to make sure they are the same is
to take the smart level device and match the degrees it is saying for
both locations. I ordered the smart level from Amazon and got the one
with the 4 foot and 2 foot level bars, then you can swap the tool
between them and use it stand alone. It made setting travel of
elevators/rudders/ ailerons very easy to determine and makes alignment
of both the Dynon and Chelton remote magnetometers a non-issue.

On this note, it may be good for all Dynon customers to know that the Dynon
magnetometer needs to be very close to the same orientation as the unit.
Dynon says that it needs to be within a degree in all directions. Dan, can

I can't take pictures right now because I'm out of town on a biz trip but can take
some next weekend if you don't get your questions answered by then.
The magnetometer is aligned to the center J channel in the tailcone and is mounted
to the adjacent J channels. I made "hangers" out of .032 and made an alum
angle tray that the magnetometer is mount to. The tray was mounted and then
I used plum bobs to align the mount holes for the yaw axis. I went as close to
the top as possible to maximize distance from the AP roll servo and battery
contactors (I have 2). Pitch iand roll axis was rerenced to the longerons and
using a digital level.
The AHRS is mounted on a tray that is attached to the right panel rib between the
subpanel and firewall. It uses the panel rib for yaw axis and and the upper
aluminum firewall structure for roll axis. Pitch axis was set and other axis
confirmed with a digital level.

Will do, as soon as I mount the wing next week for the final time, right
now they are still in the cradle waiting for the fuse to come back from
paint. What I did was to measure the Dynon as it sits in the panel and
replicated the angel offset with the smart tool and used the remote
mount unit from Safeair to put it out on the last rib of the wing. I
will post the pics next week when I get to the airport.

| Subject: | Sound proofing the 10 ? |
At Sun-N-Fun I went to a forum on redoing aircraft interiors. The
speaker had a piece of aluminum from a Beech interior where contact
cement was used to attach some foam during the previous interior
installation. Where the contact cement was used, on bare aluminum, sever
corrosion had set in. By contrast the other side of the aluminum was
bright and shiny. His recommendation was to acid etch, alodine and zinc
chromate before applying contact cement to aluminum. He didn't mention
any other primers and I didn't ask. No primer wars just passing
information along.

John,
That's what concerns me. All the references that I've read state that I
should use contact cement (or some state that one side of the insulating
material contains an adhesive) all of which would prevent inspection of
the aluminum structure. And yes I did mean "Approved" in the sense of
the FAR rule. A product that will NOT absorb moisture or odor, is long
lasting and durable. Application for both sound and thermal barrier,
more so on the sound side. As far as weight is concerned, I didn't
think that it would add a considerable amount, possibly 8-10 pounds.
That is just an estimate and I didn't think that it was an issue for my
family. Considering that our total weight is ~ 550 pounds (4 people).
Also, I'm presently looking for the April 2005 Sport Aviation issue to
see what's recommended. It's on the EAA website but not linkable, its on
page 52 Taming the Noise

John - I tried to forward the PDF copy of the article to you but your
server restricts files of such size. I will try to reduce the
resolution.
Vern is dead on with what we see with airframes during our Heavy Checks
"C" checks. Insulation should be able to be easily removed for visual
inspection of corrosion. The lower the insulation, the more it is
exposed to condensate. The natural humidity present in vapor will
condense and have no means of escape. For most builders, it is probably
a trade off they have decided to make. Quieter, cooler and willing to
run the risk of replacing lower skins way down the road. We do see the
condensation run (due to gravity) just like a wet towel on a rack. This
is a secondary reason why wiring should be run high on a sidewall (above
fluid lines) and not run down near the wet insulation under the
flooring.
Boy don't you envy those guys in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas right
now?
On a Cessna 150 that I just completed an annual on. We removed 5 =BD
quarts of water that was setting in the empennage. The drain hole had
plugged and it was amazing the lake of water found in the tail in May.
Drain holes, now there is another road to discuss.

bright and shiny. His recommendation was to acid etch, alodine and zinc
chromate before applying contact cement to aluminum. He didn't mention
any other primers and I didn't ask. No primer wars just passing
information along.

John,
That's what concerns me. All the references that I've read state that I
should use contact cement (or some state that one side of the insulating
material contains an adhesive) all of which would prevent inspection of
the aluminum structure. And yes I did mean "Approved" in the sense of
the FAR rule. A product that will NOT absorb moisture or odor, is long
lasting and durable. Application for both sound and thermal barrier,
more so on the sound side. As far as weight is concerned, I didn't
think that it would add a considerable amount, possibly 8-10 pounds.
That is just an estimate and I didn't think that it was an issue for my
family. Considering that our total weight is ~ 550 pounds (4 people).
Also, I'm presently looking for the April 2005 Sport Aviation issue to
see what's recommended. It's on the EAA website but not linkable, its on
page 52 Taming the Noise

Builders:
Somehow I ended up with an extra Champion ignition harness for the
IO-540. It is model number CH12154E, straight from Aircraft Spruce,
still in the original packaging and everything.
Lists for $438.95 at Aircraft Spruce, I'll sell it for $300 or the best
reasonable offer.
Email me offline at the below address if you are interested.
