If you look forward to checking your List email everyday (and a lot of you have
written to say that you do!), then you're probably getting at least $20 or $30
worth of Entertainment from the Lists each year. You'd pay twice that for a
subscription to some lame magazine or even a dinner out. Isn't the List worth
at least that much to you? Wouldn't it be great if you could pay that amount and
get a well-managed media source free of advertising, SPAM, and viruses? Come
to think of it, you do... :-)
Won't you please take a minute to make your Contribution today and support the
Lists?

Thanks Bill. That's great info for the alignment. It is also great to
hear
some results from the compass observations.
With the AHRS mounted so far aft of the lateral axis, are there any
artifacts in the attitude indication? It sounds like no, but that was
something I always wondered about.
Best Regards,

Two successful Xbow 420 installations:
Since the Xbow 420 incorporates orientation sensors and a three axis
magnetometer we located the unit close to the origin of all three axis
as
practical but moved outside the hard iron magnetic fields.
We constructed a flat plate approx .125 thick and installed it where the
rear seat shoulder harness cable is bolted to the upper longeron. It
spans
the fuselage width wise and we relocated the seat belt cable to the
front
lip of this plate. Used the same three holes on each side that was
originally for the shoulder harness anchor. Also over engineered it with
an
.063 Tee running laterally to stiffen any up and down vibrations. The
NAV420
is on the top and centered laterally.
I measured the magnetic fields around the elevator trim motor and the
elevator trim motor/battery and they will interfere with a compass 24"
away.
Do not underestimate the field around the small elevator trim motor - it
is
significant.
This location was outside both fore and aft magnetic fields and has a
significant advantage. If the plate is flat on the longeron and at right
angles to the yaw centerline it will automatically have two axis
perfectly
aligned. Simply run a string from front center to the tail center to
form
the yaw axis and center the NAV420 on this string to align the third
axis.
No installation correction was needed for either RV-10 with this
approach.
Do not even think of locating a magnetometer anywhere near the baggage
compartment. The magnetic interference can easily be significant and
uncontrollable.
Sorry I do not have a picture.

Thanks much for the pictures Ray! That helps a lot.
Unfortunately, I don't think I can use that as the AHRS station. The
xbow
NAV 420 has an integrated 3-axis magnetometer. I can imagine the grief
trying to situate it 6 inches from a main battery wire. So it's back to
the
shelf plan for me.
But that might be another useful station for something else. I'll have
to
keep that bracket in mind for the future.
By the way, how are you prepping the inside of the tail cone surfaces?
Is
that all just alodine? Looks great!
Anyone else currently flying with OP EFIS? Any location success stories
or
problems with the NAV 420 AHRS?

I was working with Garmin here in Olathe on this bracket and
testing
it using my RV-10. Here are all the pictures I provided to Garmin
during
this process. Van's actually created the bracket with the feedback that
was
provided my Scott (Garmin) and myself.
By the way, I don't have either AHRS, but this bracket still
makes
an excellent support for a 1" x 8" board when you need to crawl back
into
the tail. We are still working on the bracket for the Magnometer,
problem
is finding a good location that is free of magnetic interference to the
standards which Garmin has set for the Certified installations.

Hi Mike,
There is not a hard and fast rule about when the inspections need to be
done, but in general, before a section is closed up, an inspection is
probably appropriate. It was good for you to have the empennage
inspected since most of the skills required to build the airplane are
developed in that section.
Since you are building a Q/B, most of the structural work has been done
at the factory. I would have the T/C look at it when you've got most of
the systems work done (fuel system, electrical system, etc.) to make
sure you haven't created a dangerous situation with potential for
chafing fuel lines or electrical wires, etc. I've just finished the
empennage kit myself and have not yet gotten into the wing or fuselage
so I don't know exactly when in the sequence you get into the systems
work - it may be that comes in the finishing kit.
It doesn't hurt to have more than three inspections during the course of
the project,so I would recommend having the T/C look at your fuselage
when you have the fiberglass work completed, particularly if your T/C
knows something about fiberglass. I'm a T/C for our chapter, but my
expertise is more in woodwork, welding and fabric work, with some
experience in sheet metal (more being gained daily). This is my first
all metal airplane and I know next to nothing about fiberglass. Bear in
mind that very few T/C's are thoroughly knowledgeable about all aspects
of aircraft construction, so be sure to ask if yours has the knowledge
to really give you help on specific areas.

I've been installing systems (wiring, brakes, fuel, control system,
strobe power) in the QB fuse for a few months. I plan for a formal TC
inspection before closing and riveting the baggage floor in place.
In watching my TC, he'll come by any time to advise but a formal
inspection involves paperwork and a thorough inspection.

Not sure I understand. My TC came by, looked at the Empennage made some
comments, took out a sheet he sends to the EAA to maintain his TC status and
filled out " Reviewed RV-10 empennage, all work is satisfactory no problems
found"
We talked a little about the RV-10, about how I should squeeze the rivets a
little more (which my gauge would disagree with! )but otherwise seemed like
little other work for him. I am not saying this in a bad way he offered
great suggestions and I appreciated the visit and time he took to come by.
I can only think your TC believes he needs to do a thorough inspection, but
my understanding is they are just there to answer any questions and assure
they provide some guidance, not be an A&P and certify anything formally.
My next TC will be the same person who happens to be a DAR and knows the
RV's very well. Getting him has been tough but I want him to come by and
review the work now versus later when I go for the final inspection,
otherwise getting fellow builders has done the same for me than the TC..
which is what it sounds like your TC is doing. I don't even know how
important that form is anyway.. For my DAR it is "suggested to show that a
TC and/or other RV builders reviewed work and that I mention it somewhere in
a log".

Subject: Re: RV10-List:Trim troubles and mods
When this was last discussed, a few folks ask me for resistor values. I did
a rough calculation and determined that about a 10 ohm resistor would be
required to get it down to ~7 volts (assuming .6 amp draw) but that resistor
would have to be quite large to dissipate nearly 3 watts.
I redesigned the speed controller by using the ubiquitous 780x power
regulator instead. In this case a 7806 regulates the input voltage down to
6 volts for up to 1 amp. The speed controller is activated by a switch on
the flap torque tube where ,when the flaps are up, power to the trim motor
is via the 7806 power regulator, any other flap position and trim motor runs
at full speed. Much more efficient and elegant compared to a resistor.
http://wcurtis.nerv10.com/90Electrical/RV10PitchTrim.pdf
I encourage your development of products for the RV-10 and I think your trim
controller is an excellent product. However, we all have the tendency to
implement the "gold plated" solution when the more effective stainless steel
would do.

I think we're talking about the same thing. I may be overstating the
'thorough' part. I was just trying to distinquish between asking him
question about a specific issue and doing a 'review'. Both he and I
want a review before I button up the floor, but I'll probably see him
several times in the interim.
Overstatement on my part.

Absolutely not. In fact, I have not observed any negatives with my installation.
It could be because the XBOW NAV420 is an excellent gyro. It has published specifications
and each gyro is individually calibrated for the small difference
in sensors.
To finish off the installation - secure the gyro with brass bolts, washers, and
nuts. Tuck the GPS antenna underneath the vertical stablizer to fuselage fairing
as far forward as possible and centered on the vertical stab to minimize
the shadowing effect of the stab. My glass panel has a status that shows the
loss of this GPS signal and I have never lost coverage while flying.

Thanks Bill. That's great info for the alignment. It is also great to hear
some results from the compass observations.
With the AHRS mounted so far aft of the lateral axis, are there any artifacts
in the attitude indication? It sounds like no, but that was something I always
wondered about.

Two successful Xbow 420 installations:
Since the Xbow 420 incorporates orientation sensors and a three axis magnetometer
we located the unit close to the origin of all three axis as practical but
moved outside the hard iron magnetic fields.
We constructed a flat plate approx .125 thick and installed it where the rear
seat shoulder harness cable is bolted to the upper longeron. It spans the fuselage
width wise and we relocated the seat belt cable to the front lip of this
plate. Used the same three holes on each side that was originally for the shoulder
harness anchor. Also over engineered it with an .063 Tee running laterally
to stiffen any up and down vibrations. The NAV420 is on the top and centered
laterally.
I measured the magnetic fields around the elevator trim motor and the elevator
trim motor/battery and they will interfere with a compass 24" away. Do not underestimate
the field around the small elevator trim motor - it is significant.
This location was outside both fore and aft magnetic fields and has a significant
advantage. If the plate is flat on the longeron and at right angles to the
yaw centerline it will automatically have two axis perfectly aligned. Simply
run a string from front center to the tail center to form the yaw axis and center
the NAV420 on this string to align the third axis. No installation correction
was needed for either RV-10 with this approach.
Do not even think of locating a magnetometer anywhere near the baggage compartment.
The magnetic interference can easily be significant and uncontrollable.
Sorry I do not have a picture.

Thanks much for the pictures Ray! That helps a lot.
Unfortunately, I don't think I can use that as the AHRS station. The
xbow
NAV 420 has an integrated 3-axis magnetometer. I can imagine the grief
trying to situate it 6 inches from a main battery wire. So it's back to
the
shelf plan for me.
But that might be another useful station for something else. I'll have
to
keep that bracket in mind for the future.
By the way, how are you prepping the inside of the tail cone surfaces?
Is
that all just alodine? Looks great!
Anyone else currently flying with OP EFIS? Any location success stories
or
problems with the NAV 420 AHRS?

I was working with Garmin here in Olathe on this bracket and
testing
it using my RV-10. Here are all the pictures I provided to Garmin
during
this process. Van's actually created the bracket with the feedback that
was
provided my Scott (Garmin) and myself.
By the way, I don't have either AHRS, but this bracket still
makes
an excellent support for a 1" x 8" board when you need to crawl back
into
the tail. We are still working on the bracket for the Magnometer,
problem
is finding a good location that is free of magnetic interference to the
standards which Garmin has set for the Certified installations.

Don't forget to account for the heat-sinking of the linear regulator. If
your design assumtion is for 0.5 amps of current at 6 volts on the servo,
that leaves 8 volts across the regulator for a supply voltage of 14 volts.
The power dissipation in the regulator will be 8 x 0.5 = 4 watts. Also,
don't forget to handle raw electronic components such as voltage regulators
with proper static safe procautions. Avoid making walking wounded that are
likely to fail at the least timely moment. Good luck rolling your own.

The purpose for the paperwork is so that the EAA has a documented record
to track trends and quality of build progress and the work of their EAA
members. Some TCs may make brief and vague comments many are more
thorough. I do not see a value in generic phrases just to meet my quota
(of two per year). This year it has been six with two scheduled in the
next two weeks. We are volunteers because we agreed not to charge a fee.
Quality of build, safety and security of hardware, potential areas of
known issue and a personal perspective from "Walking the Walk" are the
desired outcome from TC visits. They serve a positive purpose for the
EAA, the builder and for the community.
I have seen some really good work which I think this web has helped to
elevate. Those who think the DAR is going to complete an extensive
"Inspection" may be dishearted at its conclusion only to be balanced by
the thrill of the "Pushing of Paperwork for the FAA".

I ordered a set of the door handles and latching pins but decided to go with flush
door handles. I will keep the pins but will let the door handles go for same
price I paid - $78 for the pair plus $5 to cover shipping. Just received
today and still in the wrapping as delivered from Rivethead. These are direct
replacements for the exterior handles that you fabricate on manual page 45-9.
http://www.rivethead-aero.com/rv10_005.htm
As others have said, his products are terrific it's just his lack of responsiveness/communications
coupled with a multi-month delay that's the problem. I wanted
the pins and decided to go ahead and take delivery of the handles too since
I was sure that somebody would want them.
