    Subject: Re: AFS Systems .... and others
    I do also think the market has to experience some consolidation before too long. Even the certified market probably will. After walking through the hangars at Sun-N-Fun and seeing the amazing number of offerings, I started realizing that this is inevitable. I agree that Dynon and AFS will very likely be around long term with their EFIS products, as will TruTrak with their auto pilot (and possibly their EFIS). MGL is hard to judge because of their limited exposure in the US to date. Of the certified products, Garmin is solid. While other companies like OP, Chelton, L3, Avidyne, etc have fantastic offerings, how many can the market truly support? Aspen avionics appears to be a certified offering in the lower end of price points, so it will be interesting to see how they do. Marketing and customer service will determine this. So far I have had nothing but good customer service from Dynon, and have heard the same for GRT. I have heard great things from AFS, but they are still fairly new to the EFIS market. Their service on their other products has had very good reports. BMA, on the other hand, I have yet to hear a very good report about. They must be selling something, though, because they still are out there. No offense meant to the companies I have failed to mention, as I know there are a lot of others out there. do not archive Jesse Saint Saint Aviation, Inc. jesse@saintaviation.com Cell: 352-427-0285 Fax: 815-377-3694 On Apr 15, 2008, at 1:18 AM, Randy Lervold wrote: > Robin, > > You raise an important consideration and one I gave serious weight > to myself in choosing an EFIS supplier.

    Hey Gary, Just beautiful ... maybe tiger paws, gamecock for ours ... probably not! As I just finished the strut pants, I also was wondering if you noticed any difference in trim as well as speed. Seems like that could make a difference if they were even a little off.

    Hey Roger, Access to the tire valve would be a good thing. I've read the other posts about round plugs, but we haven't addressed that yet. Currently, I'm helping the owner build his and it will be his decision. We're fine tuning the door latch mechanism (sticking with Van's) this week, and after a break from the pants challenge, I'll let you know if we come up with anything more practical about the valve access when we get back to it. Please let me know if you come up with something as well. Later, - Lew do not archive -------- non-pilot crazy about building NOW OFICIALLY BUILDER #40549 doors almost finished, pants on, WHEW!

    Subject: AFS Systems .... and others
    When we build our panels and select the instruments/vendors that are available we are hoping that these products/companies well survive. None-the-less we are well aware that there will be many changes in the market in just a short time. In my RV-9A I installed a Navaid autopilot, changed to a Trio, was in the planning stage of removing the electric gyros and other round gages looking at EFIS/EMS displays. Now in the RV-10 I have Dynon EFIS/EMS and TruTrak but I'm looking at the Dynon autopilot and I know Trio has a new one to present at Oshkosh. My point is because we can make major panel changes some of us will-and maybe more than once. My advice is to make it as easy as possible to remove and alter the panel, add more wires, etc. I added rudder trim after completion but had already run a 5 wire cable into the tail cone and put the indicator on the panel 'just in case' so it was pretty easy to do. But what if it had required 6 wires instead of 5 I had run? Make it as easy as possible to incorporate change. Albert Gardner Yuma, AZ

    Randy, I forgot to group AFS impressive products in my brief list of solid companies. Like Jessie I apologize if I left a few personal favorites out but that just proves the point, too many to list. Again I feel we are very lucky to have all these options made available to us in just a few short years but it comes at a price. My yet to fly G900X has a fantastic new SVT option so my panel is already outdated and has yet to clear 10' AGL. I read that the SVT upgrade for Diamond Aircraft products will be $10K. They are obviously certified aircraft with "certified" costs but I have yet to get an answer on what my unit will cost for these improved features. Robin From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Randy Lervold Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 10:19 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: AFS Systems .... and others Robin, You raise an important consideration and one I gave serious weight to myself in choosing an EFIS supplier. Personally though I think Dynon and AFS have the greatest potential for longest term survival. Dynon because of their market share due to being first to market and having the lowest price points. Regarding AFS, you may not be aware that they have an OEM relationship with Bendix/King Honeywell (the KFD 840 Primary Flight Display), and also is the exclusive supplier of EFIS systems for the Glasair TWT Sportsman program. This provides diversification and funding for additional development and support resources that benefit those of us with AFS branded products. As an AFS owner I am more familiar with their situation than GRT, I hear great things from owners of their products also, just didn't know if any of this was widely known. I agree with those who think this market will likely experience some consolidation as it matures, and that those still choosing their avionics should consider this aspect as well.

    This is a great resource to share with the other builders. Knowing how many wires to run in anticipation of future adaption of emerging technology. Maybe Stein could make a future edition of Kitplanes Magazine on aircraft wiring tips, techniques and wiring run planning. Tim has done a lot with his loads and diagrams. Thanks for the wake up call.

    Cool, I never saw that link before. I did take video, also, but haven't downloaded it and crunched it yet. I figure she can play the video at school and use the photos for explaining. Fun stuff!

    I'm not sure the interval...I just had her hold down the auto drive on the camera...so maybe 2 or 3 shots per second or a bit less? It did take quite a bit of work to get it really well into the stall. I saw airspeeds in the 40's when I was stalling too. (No, I don't mean I was flying at 40....I was stalled) It was very interesting to see how hard I had to work to really get a nasty stall though. I can't imagine someone stalling this plane accidently, in a departure stall situation...it would take a lot of work. When it buffets, you have lots of warning yet until it gets wild. What I really should do is videotape the EFIS during the stall. I wasn't able to watch out the wing all the time, but I know I saw pitch angles that were pretty steep...and red chevrons telling me to knock it off. And all that crabbing (a kinder word) from Betty.... Tim Olson - RV-10 N104CD - Flying do not archive James K Hovis wrote: > > About what I'd expect to see Tim.

    Subject: Automatic temp controller for air conditioning
    From: "marcausman" <marc@verticalpower.com>
    We recently announced at Sun n Fun a set and forget temperature controller for air conditioning systems. In a nutshell, you set the desired temp and it controls the fans and compressor to regulate the cabin temperature. It automatically turns on after engine start, and turns off during takeoff and after engine shutdown. If there is a fault with the air conditioning system, it tells you exactly where the fault is and what kind of fault occurred. You can find more information here: http://www.verticalpower.com/climate_control.html The system is just beginning beta testing now and expected to begin shipping in Q3 08.

Lots of emai ls, calls etc. Finally, I threatened to report them to my credit card comp any and they promised to send the caps right away and give me a 10% discoun t for my trouble.

    For those who are not using the metal blocks in place of the delrin blockin the door frame: There appears to be enough variability in door construction that the standard c-1012 and c-1011 are not always long enough to penetrate the complete door frame (i.e. delrin, glass and aluminum). For my money I like to see .25" of complete tube in the door jamb. Because of the length of the tube or the bevel, the supplied pins are short by .25-.375. I am making the suggestion to Vans to lengthen these by that amount and allow the builder to shorten to fit as opposed to my personal solution to buy material and machine as required.

    The pins may not penetrate all three materials. My left rear pin engaged by the .25" minimum but the other three did not; the bevel in the right rear ran right to the edge of the aluminum; not sufficient for me. The only thing I can figure is that location of the handle can effect these lengths. The instructions requiring centering the handle in the box but of course the box location is determined by where the inner shell is glued to the outer shell. The appropriate holes on the shell halves were faint and flat so there is some variability there. By Friday the doors shoudl be ready to go back on. _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of John Gonzalez Sent: Tuesday, April 15, 2008 4:17 PM Subject: RE: RV10-List: doors again I'm within one to two hours from seeing how all this comes together and I am surprised that the pins do not penetrate all three structures. Still haven't gotten to the part about how far the threaded bolts stick out of the pins, and why did I have to make a run to the hardware store for these bolts??? _____ From: dlm46007@cox.net Subject: RV10-List: doors again For those who are not using the metal blocks in place of the delrin blockin the door frame: There appears to be enough variability in door construction that the standard c-1012 and c-1011 are not always long enough to penetrate the complete door frame (i.e. delrin, glass and aluminum). For my money I like to see .25" of complete tube in the door jamb. Because of the length of the tube or the bevel, the supplied pins are short by .25-.375. I am making the suggestion to Vans to lengthen these by that amount and allow the builder to shorten to fit as opposed to my personal solution to buy material and machine as required. get=_blank>http://www.matronics.com/Navigator?RV10-List p://forums.matronics.com blank>http://www.matronics.com/contribution

    From: "Lew Gallagher" <lewgall@charter.net>
    Again, I did not thread the rods, just stuck a pencil in the hole with a bit of masking tape to make it firm and centered, and marked away -- it came out perfect. Using someone else's idea, I carved out the BACKSIDE of where the toothed bar retracts, and also a bit of the teflon (where the retaining pin on the toothed bar and the split end of the rod bumps in full open position) so that the pins can retract to the maximum -- which allows you to set the rod at maximum penetration in closed position (make sure they're set on the absolute last possible tooth). In open position, the inside handle is at about 130 degrees instead of 90. I get full penetration through all three structures. No threads. The taper pulls the door in snug with no help at all, no movement at all once it's shut. This weekend we'll temporarily install the provided weather strip with double sided carpet tape to see if we can accomplish the same fit. I can probably post pictures later if there's interest. This is not the right thread, but I gotta tell ya, I very much appreciate the info on the crashes, and it's VERY sobering if not downright discouraging.

    64TX broke the bounds of earth on Saturday morning April 12 in celebration of my 65th bday. Flew well a little heavier on the controls than my 6A but still easy to fly. Now comes the fun. It was kit number 40378 and still needs interior and paint.

    Subject: dimple or countersink around baggage door
    The plans call for you to countersink the aft six holes in the fuselage skin, where it mates to the forward six holes in the tailcone skin, F-1023 baggage floor angle, and F10100-A shim (page 32-4 figure 3). The QB fuselage has the forward holes dimpled in those pieces. The floor angle and shim was just temporarily attached with pop rivets. Why would I not dimple those remaining holes also? The .032 skin is the minimum for countersink, and I don't see an access issue. Is this a mistake in the plans, or is there a reason to countersink, not dimple. The same for the rivets above the baggage door, and on the right side, that go thru the skin into the longerons. All the holes that were filled with rivets have been dimpled, but the plans call for the remaining ones to be countersunk. Vans says to just build it. Anyone with an input? Chris Hukill dazed and confused

    I just went out and looked at my fuse as I just did that step a few weeks ago. I countersunk the 6 holes as the plans said. There is plenty of material behind the skin with the shim and angle, no worries. I agree with Vans on this one, just build it.
