    Subject: VA-196 Stall Warning Vane
    Has anyone had a problem with the VA-196 Stall Warning Vane being too small to accept the MS24694C14 machine screw that retains it? On mine, the machine screw does not fit and I was wondering if this is common or I have a faulty vane. I did confirm that I am using the correct fastener (#8 structural, 100 deg c/s flat head, philips drive, 32 threading, 21/32 grip length, 1 1/16 overall length). Best Regards, Patrick #40715 / N690CT

    Hey Patrick, You bet. Yesterday we tried slightly drilling out the vane -- and found out it is definitely hardened, stainless, whatever. When finished, the screw fit, but discovered that the weld was cracked on the vane from clamping it in the vice by the vane. Scrap. I don't want to try rewelding and compromising the vane, so we'll be on the phone to Van's today. Oh well. Will post when we find out more.

    The B & C have a good reputation but I think Van's is now including the Plane Power (AL12-EI60/B) alternator in the firewall forward kit rather than the crappy Nippondenso previously included. When I ordered my FF kit it still included the Nippondenso so I had the ES ALTERNATOR replaced with the ES ALTERNATOR DELUXE. ES ALTERNATOR 60A KIT ALTERNATOR & BOSS MNT $270.00 (Nippondenso) ES ALTERNATOR DELUXE 60A KIT W/OV PROTECT $375.00 (Plane Power) http://www.planepower.com/AL12-EI60.htm Plane power does not yet have the equivalent of the SD-20, so I'll probably included that if Plane Power does not come out with a vacuum pad alternator.

    Hi Lew, Sorry to hear you had trouble, but glad to know I'm not the only one. That bushing on the vane is really hard steel, I'm sure that was no fun to ream. If you don't mind, please post back with Van's comments. I'm curious to hear what they say. Thanks!

    Found the same. Had to drill it out. Turned it into a nice little pretzel and had to re-order. I forgot exactly how I managed to drill it out without destroying it, but careful restraint and lot's of lube never hurts. Bill "smiling" Watson Lew Gallagher wrote: > > Hey Patrick, > > You bet.

    From: "Condrey, Bob (US SSA)" <bob.condrey@baesystems.com>
    I've got that same combination and unless you also have an angled oil filter adapter there's nothing special about the install. If you've also got the B&C (possibly others too) angled oil filter adapter you'll need to get the spacer kit for the SD-20 which moves the alternator aft about 5/8". The spacer kit isn't on their web site but Bill knows all about it.

    Ron - I have the same two dinosaurs as yourself. I can confirm that you need a boss mount for the L-60. No tricks to install (other than putting the belt on before the prop!) SD20 came installed on the engine (from Aerosport power). Looks like you'll need a crow's foot wrench for one of the bolts, due to clearance issues. Regarding regulators - may I suggest a SB1B instead of a second LR3C? This monitors buss voltage, and only activates the secondary alternator if the first fails.

    OK, Patrick. We talked to Van's today and evidently they're aware of the problem cuz they said they'd send out a replacement with a vane and bolt that match -- no charge. We'll see. In the meantime there's lot's to do -- the main gear are on today, and after the engine mount and nose gear are on and seats temporarily in, we'll really be able to sit in it and "vroom vroom"!

Hartzell is really getting out of hand on these. It is now $795 for the unpolished A-2297 or $907 for the polished version. We do not use this spinner much anymore.

    OK, newbie question here. I'm installing my first nutplates, need to recess the rivet in some way, and ran into the issue with the female die interfering with the nutplate, and on the skin with the screw dimple. I read that the NAS1097 rivets are a neat solution, and it sounded very good, just countersink a little bit and you are good to go. But.....Van's no longer stocks the NAS1097 in the AD3 size, just AD4's. Mysteriously, Aircraft Spruce also stocks just AD4's. So, do you all have a secret supplier? :D -Andy -------- Andy Turner Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=159688#159688

    Subject: Insurance
    Don, I agree with getting a "complex" checkout in hopes that it will lower the rates, it's also not a bad idea anyway since the RV-10 has a lot going on inside potentially. I'd recommend really shopping around. I found significant differences between quotes (one was twice the rest). I went with AOPA who lined me up with Falcon Insurance as they had a 'good' price and minimal type experience. When I first started shopping around I was told I'd get credit for my RV-6 time, but things changed by the time I was ready to fly. The only good news to offer is most companies will give you a pretty good break in the price after the first year, so fly a lot. You can always use it as an excuse for the high fuel bill that you are preparing for saving on insurance!

    You can use normal rivets. You will need a thin dimple die to dimple the nutplate for the rivet, then you can dimple the skin normally. If it is a thick part, then you can machine countersink the aluminum and don't have to modify the nutplate.

    Order a "small diameter" female dimple die. They work great for close quarters dimpling like you mention. You can get them from Avery.

    Grind down the edge of your female die... It's pretty standard procedure.

    Any If I understand your problem, you need a small diameter dimple die.

    From: "AirMike" <Mikeabel@Pacbell.net>
    I am a high time VFR pilot. I am trying to get my plane set up for lite IFR. In other words - installing one Garmin SL30 with GS & Audio w/MB lites I have been advised by others in EAA and prior posts on this site that having a heated Pitot is a must. Is Gretz GA1000 the best choice.
