    Rene, Thanks for the interior photos. I have a question about your retract seatbelts. I cobbled together some retract belts that actually worked great (including Dial Release) but they were quite heavy ~4 Lbs each. Can I ask where you purchased your retracts, and about what they weigh? Grumpy also has a nice set of retracts and I believe Chris created a set of 3 point retracts in his plane. Thanks, Robin

    Subject: Re: New service letter on RV10 - preflight door latch inspection
    We just finished the Van's stock door handles, latch mechanism, strut and seal for both doors. When the door is properly latched there is a 1/16" gap between the door surface and the cabin. When the door is improperly latched there is a huge gap at the bottom edge of the door that is impossible to overlook if one takes the time to glance down. The gap is wedge shaped about 3/4" aft and 1/8" forward. Our Spartan (non-plush , no leather, no crushed velvet mink or sable) interior will definitely NOT obscure this telltale. Are any of you flying RV-10 pilots able to do a strictly visual check on your door's security?? Paul Hahn #40203

    A visual check is very easy in my plane too, with just thin fabric over the door inside. It is obvious if you have the door closed wrong. The hard part is ensuring that you actually do the visual check. That's why I philosophically agree with the warning light system, yet I've not yet taken the plunge. I'm not sure if I want to install it as-delivered, or improve on it.

    Subject: Seat Belt Opinion Please
    From: "Robin Marks" <robin1@mrmoisture.com>
    Seeing Rene's interior reminded me that I need to make a final decision on my Seatbelts. As mentioned earlier I cobbled together some nice seatbelts from a combination of Drifter 4 point belts and a retract head (eBay). The entire package was probably $75.00 including the rotary buckle release. The downside was that they were heavy (~4 Lbs each) and they would require some custom fabrication to mount. Plus the spool section looks to be about 30% taller/larger than Rene's retracts. I liked them in principal but was concerned about straying too far off the reservation with this change. If I don't go with the retracts I will probably choose the Hooker belts (~$600 - 10%). Does anyone have an opinion (loaded question) about the actual benefits/drawbacks of the retracts vs. the stock mounting of fixed seatbelts? I don't mind the restriction of my fixed RV-6A belts but the 10 will be more of a X-Country machine for me. BTW I have legally changed both my name and my wife's name to RV-10 instead of re-embroidering the seats. Thanks Rene. RV-10 (AKA Robin) Marks N110EE

    Subject: Rudder cable travel
    I've been noodling on an alternative (spring biased) rudder trim design. One of the things I need to know from someone that has their rudder pedals and rudder cables and rudder installed and connected is: 1 _How far does the rudder cable (either side) travel_ ? With the rudder in 'neutral' position (each rudder pedal in-line with the other). when you depress the pilot side RIGHT rudder pedal how far forward does the rudder cable move until the rudder hits it's stop? Similarly, with the pedals neutral again, when you move the pilot side LEFT rudder pedal forward until the rudder hits the stop, how far aft did/does the rudder cable that is connected to the pilot side right rudder pedal move? I would greatly appreciate any help in obtaining the above information. Deems Davis # 406 'Its all done....Its just not put together' http://deemsrv10.com/

    P0002837, P0002841, P0002847 (1) I am building in Phoenix and contacted AMSAFE about inertial belts for the 10. One of their managers flies light airplanes and agreed to make a belt system for me if I would beef up the hard point arrangement of the lid. The result is that they refer RV10 belt inquires to me at www.inertialbelts.com. The belts are specifically sized for the 10 but they may work for other RVs. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bill Schlatterer Sent: Sunday, February 17, 2008 11:45 AM Subject: RE: RV10-List: Emailing: P0002847, P0002848, P0002849, P0002832, P0002834, P0002837, P0002841, P0002847 (1) --> <billschlatterer@sbcglobal.net> Great Pictures, but a question?

    Subject: New service letter on RV10 - preflight door latch inspection
    I too agonized about the door security system and I conversed with the builder who lost the door TWICE. The first without hte system and once with the system installed and working properly. I then concluded my pre takeoff check would be a visual and touch check for the pins. In addtion a good fitting door latches a lot easier than one that has a warp (ever so slight) set during construction. _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of eagerlee Sent: Sunday, February 17, 2008 9:54 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: New service letter on RV10 - preflight door latch inspection We just finished the Van's stock door handles, latch mechanism, strut and seal for both doors.

    Subject: Oil Cooler Aero Duct
    From: "McGANN, Ron" <ron.mcgann@baesystems.com>
    I was wondering how many others have opted to install the engine before the upper forward fuse was permanently rivetted on? For those that have installed the engine first, was there any issue with alignment of the upper fuse to the fuse side skins? Any issues with pre-loading the engine mount and fuse before the top fuse was rivetted on? cheers, Ron ________________________________ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Robin Marks Sent: Saturday, 16 February 2008 5:59 AM To: rv10-list@matronics.com Subject: RV10-List: Oil Cooler Aero Duct I made the choice to purchase a premium aero duct to vent my oil cooler vs. the standard scat tube. I am trying to optimize the airflow to the cooler and maximize its efficiency. The aero duct has less convolutions and a smooth silicone inner liner to assist in air flow. It's the same duct used for routing air to race car disk brake assemblies. Unfortunately it comes in 12' sections for ~$150 delivered (from recollection). I am offering 3' sections to the list for $35.00 including shipping. I have already sent one section to Don McDonald and he seems to be pleased with this simple mod. It's available in any color you want as long as it's Blue (see below). If anyone is interested please contact me off list.

    I installed the engine before I put on the upper forward fuse. I haven't had any issues with alignment. Leaving it off definitely made wiring the panel and running cables through the firewall much easier since I didn't know where I wanted to run everything before the engine was on.

    Subject: Re: Rudder cable travel
    Deems I have studied the rudder system some and although mine is not completely assembled I offer the following: The rudder cables travel stop to stop approx. 4.25". As you know the stops are on the rudder horn where the stop tabs hit the stops on the main spar of the vertical. Each cable moves half the total travel or approx. 2.125" from neutral to forward or aft. The pedals travel more than the rudder cable so if someone confirms the measurement they are best to mark the cable where it exits the tailcone with a piece of tape and then swing the rudder to the other side. How are these springs going to hook up? Are they in the line of the rudder cable or just attached to the cable?

    Subject: Flap Torque Tube Question
    Hi All I hesitate to use the word "primer" in a question but I have to. Fortunately the question is more of a "how to" question rather than a "what to use question". Step 3 of page 40-4 of the plans requires the priming of the interior of the flap torque tubes. Can anyone shed some light as to how one primes the interior of tubes? This has me stumped. Given the tubes are steel, what does one use as a primer. Ooops, I just started another primer thread. Inquiring minds need to know.. Les Kearney #40643 C-GCWZ (reserved)

    Flush the inside of the tube with your choice of solvent. Tape closed one end and pour primer into the tube. Invert the tube as needed to coat the inside and then pour out the excess primer. I use PPG DP-40LF for all priming.

    The Ducting is long gone. Thanks List. There was a fair amount of interest. Seems like a RV-10 pre cut set (Oil & Heater) would be a nice thing. The blue ducts do look good with the engine mount and gear legs. The Oil duct is only ~16" long. Bummer to have to buy 12'. Robin Do Not Archive
