When I power mine up it doesn't look near as cool because the moving map
shows the surrounding area which is all green because the Midwest is pretty

I've realized it is going to be while before I get paint on my RV-10 so I
think I need to put something on the fiberglass parts to keep them from being
damaged from sunlight. It is hangared so it only gets exposed when flying or
parked at a destination airfield. I was thinking of just putting a coat of some
inexpensive Rustoleum primer on all the exposed fiberglass, do you think
that will that provide the UV protection necessary?

I don't know if this is just for testing or actually available for
customers, but I saw the 3-blade Hartzell on an IO-540 Maule, I believe,
when I went to visit the factory recently. It definitely is the coolest
looking prop I've seen on a small plane, but for 3 times the MT price and 4
times the Hartzell 2-Blade metal blade price, I don't see it being used a
whole lot on RV-10's or Maule's, even if it does become available, although
some would likely fork over the cash to have something that "special".

Patrick - Don't go there. The Hartzell guys were evasive at Arlington
and downright rude at OSH. They want $27,000 for the three blade
composite which is now Type Certificated for the Cirrus SR-22 G2 and G3.
Which by the way runs on a Continental IO-550N or TSIO-550 from Tornado
Alley.
Several airshow performers have a more robust composite three blade on
IO-540s running higher compression pistons at upward of $35,000.
Their official answer, "Hah, If you want a three blade Hartzell for the
IO-540 then get VAN to personally request it otherwise.... Its not for
sale on kitbuilts to individual builders".
I came away licking my wounds and swearing that Deems and those who have
gone with AeroComp and an American Propeller three color finished paint
job have chosen wisely. If necessary, I kept their business cards in my
"Do not ever frequent business with these guys". Just my opinion.
Their two blade aluminum scimitar is the best you can get for the RV-10
if you want to climb slower (1700 fpm) and have VANS blessing.

Jim,
Not a answer to your question but something to think about. What ever paint
you use, it would be nice if it is easily removable or at least compatible
with your final paint system. Otherwise it could be a bear when it is time
for final painting. There are sealer primers that will cover incompatible
paints, but why chance it if you don't have to. How do I know? Been there d
one that, on my first car restoration. Nothing as sickening as seeing your
new paint job blistering and peeling up.

A few years ago I built a fairing for my motorcycle. I used a walmart
brand spray primer that was for wicker and fiberglass (rustoleum is more
for metals) I painted it yellow and the bike sits outside while I build.
No loss of color, no flaking, etc.. granted the speed is less than an RV
but it works.
Just get a primer that works for fiberglass and you'll be fine. Not sure
about the UV protection however, you might want to spray some paint on
top of the primer for the extra protection.
Personally, I would get a Home depot brand (behr) white primer/paint and
either spray it or roll it on.

I believe you need something with a very high solids content in order to
protect from UV which is the primary concern. Just painting it won't do th
e job. I've seen fiberglass microwave antennas that were painted with a ra
ttle can paint and a year later it was in rough shape.
If it was me I would spend the extra couple $ and put on a coat of UV Smo
othprime even if it means sanding it off later just to do it again. It tak
es surprising little time for UV to degrade fiberglass and make it brittle.

If you are using it for anything critical like sealing your tank, I personally
wouldn't go much past the date. Tank sealant is cheap compared to the $time$
and aggravation of fixing leaks in a tank.

I picked up Honeywell AML 34 series from Newarkone electronics, you'll save about
$10 a switch from them...if there is a demand you can save big dollars on a
large purchase. You can get them engraved at the link you already posted, plus
they sell the caps as well if you want, you need to read the part numbers carefully,
some can be lighted some can't but they are very high quality switches,
be prepared to spend at least $30 for each one.

Subject: RV10-List: FW: Dimple challenged tonight
While dimpling the skins of the elevator, I started getting tired and was
pushing myself to complete the tasks at hand. As you might suspect, Murphy
showed up and I screwed up. The attached picture isn't all that good, but
you can clearly see that I missed the hole and it's now elongated. This
is the bottom outside corner of the trailing edge of the elevator.
I see my options as:
1. The anal perfectionist in me wants to order a new skin.
2. Find a way to make a repair that doesn't look too bad.
3. Whatcha worried about, just keep building, the proseal will keep
things together.
Thoughts, comments?
Thanks,
Bob

Use 5 minute Epoxy.
It's use and the acceptable repair information is in the manual you received
with the propeller.
You know where the manual is. It is in the little paper envelope with the
other propeller documents, that you stored in a safe place. :-)

Does anyone know where I can find information on repairing nicks in an MT
composite prop (or any composite prop for that matter). I picked up a
several rock nicks over in Baja and used some JB Weld to repair the prop
that seems to be working but not sure if this is the best way.
