    I need to change my governor setting as it will over rev and I can only go 3/4 throttle and take off to keep it 2700rpm. I doubt if the screw adjustment will be enough so my question for those that have moved the arm one spline was it a big deal? Does the spline want to turn by it self once you remove the arm to reposition? Chris VH-ICY 7.1 hours and no cracks

    No big deal but you do neeed to mark with fine tip marker the current location. Mark both the spline and the arm. If you are over reving then you must move the arm clockwise with repsect to the spline. My guess would be at most two splines. Four hands or a locking wrnech may help to ensure movement in the correct way. Mine was under reving by 200 rpm. I initially moved it 2-3 splines CCW and it was too much. Adjusted to 1 spline and used the screw. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Chris and Susie McGough Sent: Sunday, July 06, 2008 4:39 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: prop governor changes --> <VHMUM@bigpond.com> I need to change my governor setting as it will over rev and I can only go 3/4 throttle and take off to keep it 2700rpm.

    You might also need to adjust the low pitch stop on the prop to ensure that in the event of governor failure that the in-flight overspeed does not overstress the prop/engine. Overspeed prop conditions are specified in the prop manual. -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Chris and Susie McGough Sent: Sunday, July 06, 2008 4:39 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: prop governor changes --> <VHMUM@bigpond.com> I need to change my governor setting as it will over rev and I can only go 3/4 throttle and take off to keep it 2700rpm.

    The W1007D & E doublers have a flange that nests in there. Dimpling may make the doublers not fit tightly, as you will now have to dimple them too. The dimples may not set inside each other very well due to the material thickness. -------- RV-10 #40333 N540XP (reserved) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=191443#191443

    Subject: Home grown overhead console
    Thought I would share some photos of my recently completed overhead console. I think it came out pretty good. I am still finishing it up and need to add nut plates to mount the vents, also need to add access plates etc. I used blue foam as a mold. I shaped the foam and then taped it on the top. I used tape around the edges to protect the cabin top. The fillet was done with spackling compound. I sanded the foam and spackling smooth and then covered with mold release wax. Yes it took some time but it was not difficult to do. So... it can be done without buying after market if desired - no special skills. -Chris Lucas #40072
