Subject: | Re: tunnel temps |
I bought my insulating material from Buckley Industries who are in
Wichita, KS. They have a fire resistant material for the firewall and
then a sound proofing material for the other areas. It was very easy to
install. Just peal off the paper from the back and press on. There phone
number is 316-744-7587.
Firewall insulation part # 139675 which is a 27X48 sheet of material and
costs around $83
Sidewall insulation material part # 139679 also a 27X48 sheet and costs
around $74
I'm flying now and the noise level is very good. I didn't insulate the
tunnel but have carpet running up the side of it and the top of the
tunnel is covered with leather and I am not experiencing any tunnel heat
issue. I was flying yesterday with outside temperatures on the ground
over 90 and when I was in the air I felt all around the tunnel and I
couldn't find any hot spots.

They're apparently still working on it. I saw it at Oshkosh this year.
No details on their site yet though.[/img]

New to the list...
Helping a friend figure out a paint scheme for his RV-10, and will be getting quotes
for having it painted. I'm wondering if anybody has recommendations? And
about how much should he expect to pay for a nice looking job?

Subject: | QB Wings - AEX Tie Downs |
I'm finally getting through the plans review of the QB kits and ran into a
question.
For those of you that received QB Wings, were your AEX tie downs for the
wings tapped? Mine were installed un-tapped and I wondered if that is how
they are supposed to be or if I was special.
Either way, this is kind of troublesome. They will have to be tapped
through the hole in the wing skins and if anything goes wrong with tapping
the threads, I am not sure how it could be fixed.
Best Regards,
Patrick 40715

Yes, my wing tiedowns are untapped also. I've been putting off the
tapping for the same reason.
Do it slowly, go in and out a lot, and use lot's of lube.

I can't speak to what is normal for the QB, but I have tapped several of them through
the skin. We are not talking an 8-32 tap that can easily break. You shouldn't
have much trouble.

Subject: | Re: Stewart Systems (formerly AFS) paint system |
I have used the AFS "smoke grey" water based primer and have found that if you
scuff and etch the aluminum first as instructed it seals very hard and durable.
I haven't any experience with the exterior paint but expect when I get that
far I'll have some expert assistance.

Use the correct drill bit for the tap being selected. Boe(ing) Lube is
an excellent lubricant. When all else fails there is always the ability
to install a Heli-coil.
You are doing just fine.

Mine were not tapped either. I had no problem tapping them however.
Aluminum is easy just take your time, use lots of oil, and back the tap
out often to clear the chips. The hardest part is removing the chips
when done. I think I used a que tip and gently rolled it around in the
new threads to catch all the chips I could. You could practice tapping
a hole in some scrap first to get the feel. It really was no big deal.
In fact that is the first thing I noticed and did to my QB Wings.

I had forgotten about heli-coils, so at least there is an option if there
were to be problems. Clean up was the number two concern, especially with
lots of boelube.
I was wondering why the QBuilders didn't just do it, but I suppose it does
make sense to leave it in case the builder desires a different threading.
Thanks all for the confirmation!

Patrick 40715
