    Leave the speaker connector disconnected and use the line-out front L/R. Connect those to the stereo input on your intercom and then set the Valor's fade to front speakers only. That's what I did for mine and it seems to work fine. PJ Seipel RV-10 #40032 greghale wrote: > > I found the wiring diagram for the Valor 702W.

    That idea seems that it should work ok, but I have a question about that. They have line out for the subwoofer. Won't you lose all the low low's if you just take the Front L/R? It seems like they're missing one simple wire connection.....plain old Line-out audio. It may be that to really get all the sound quality you'd want, you would have to add another intermediate device to mix those signals back together. I don't know the answer, but I do know that like others said, you definitely don't want to tie the speaker outputs to the audio panel. You also won't need to use the remote amp for this whole system.

    Subject: Re: WARNING: Epoxy filler
    Definitely good advice not to use it under dark paint. I only have white paint, with no bad effects at all. I would extend the advice a bit further even though and recommend that if someone is going to go with dark paint, avoid the dark paint on the cabin top and any of the glass areas that get that direct sun. And, probably best to avoid it on the fuel tanks as well, just to keep that fuel from getting as hot. Those that have been on the list for years may remember some testing that was done that showed the temperatures achieved with various colors of paint, and darker paints got significantly warmer...and heat doesn't go well with anything that expands a terrible amount. That's part of why you see so many white or white on top/color on bottom type paint schemes. I've got the 410 all over the place on elevator tip fairings, rudder tip fairings, the seam below the cabin top, and places like that. But, I have white paint in those places.

    That should work just fine and that is how I have mine hooked up as well. Like others have mentioned, not sure if you can mix the bass into the output as well. You may want to call the Garmin or PS Engineering guys that question. Here is something I found on the PS Engineering website. Like it mentions, if you don't have the low level output and only speaker outputs, you can buy the PL2 I have linked below. So, what song will played first after or during that first flight? Can I use my 200W AIWA Car Stereo? Sure. Just don't hook the speaker output directly to the intercom. It will fail. The PS Engineering intercoms are designed to accept a low-level ( less than 3 V P-P) audio signal, like the ones provided by portable devises. Car stereo headphone amplifiers are not referenced to ground, and our intercoms are, so the moment power is turned on, the output amplifier will try its darndest to find ground, even if it has to let the smoke out of components. We recommend using a "Line Level" output from the car stereo. This is the one usually used for power amplifiers, equalizers and other add-ons. Again, the signals on this line vary widely between the brands and model. IF your automotive stereo does not have a "line out" there is an adapter available from Crutchfield . Called the PowerLinkII (PL2) this connects between the stereo and the intercom. It provides the proper levels and can be adjusted to suit your needs. Naturally, the ideal solution is our PCD7100, which is FAA-approved and designed to work in airplanes. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-K9I5Jr0Z26g/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx?I=101pl2&search=PL2 Scott Schmidt scottmschmidt@yahoo.com ----- Original Message ---- From: PJ Seipel <seipel@seznam.cz> Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 2:17:04 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Re: Car Radio output to headphones Leave the speaker connector disconnected and use the line-out front L/R.

    You know sometimes you can stare at something and still not get it until someone else points it out to you. LINE OUT!!--Duh. You guys are the greatest and it is times like this that make the forum great! Scott I am not sure about the exact first song, but I'm sure I GET AROUND by the The Beach Boys will be at the top of the list. Thanks again everyone for your input.

    Subject: Rudder: Oil canning
    Hi - Last night, while final drilling my rudder, I noticed some oil canning in the bottom two panels of the left skin. I had been following the plans, so was a bit surprised to see it. It was what I would consider to be fairly significant oil canning (only comparison is to my old Cessna 170, which had that going in a few spots), where if I pushed on one panel, the next one up would pop. My question is whether this is something that will work itself out during riveting or whether there is a strategy for redrilling (or something) to deal with it before I begin riveting? I've seen some really good archived messages about specific rivet patterns being used to alleviate oil canning, but none that directly apply to the rudder. Should I just not worry about it and have faith that the riveting process will equalize the tension irregularities? Thanks, Dennis Keller Albany, CA http://www.n44dk.com

    Dennis; I've found pretty good luck with using a ton of clecos. I use the scatter method - one here, one way over there, etc. This seems to help keep canning to a minimum. I would pull out all the clecos and re-cleco it to see if the problem persists.

    Tim, On mine, unless you select in the radio's menu to have the bass go to the subwoofer then there won't be anything output on that line and the bass goes to the regular speakers. At least on my radio that connection is optional. But it may very well depend on the brand of radio you have.

    -----Original Message----- That idea seems that it should work ok, but I have a question about that. They have line out for the subwoofer. Won't you lose all the low low's if you just take the Front L/R? It seems like they're missing one simple wire connection.....plain old Line-out audio. It may be that to really get all the sound quality you'd want, you would have to add another intermediate device to mix those signals back together.

    Subject: yikes! Subpanel cutouts
    I'm looking at my subpanel next to the Vans plans chapter 41 (hey I'm back in the book again!). So far, I've trimmed the aft part of the two outboard ribs to allow for adequate EFIS clearance. However, the radio stack seems likely to require reinforced holes (just to the right of the center rib). Are the large cutouts in the plans meant to be a general sort of guideline? How are radios in the radio stack secured to the subpanel structure? Are the circular subpanel holes for round steam gauge stuff or for wire routing? This probably makes perfect sense once you've done it, but there are too many questions to just start whacking away. I'd love to hear what others have done and see some photos if possible. Thanks in advance for any replies! Cheers, Jay Engine, wiring, and panel stuff... oh my!

    Subject: Re: door lock size requirement
    Roger, I may caution against this format. The sight of a lock on the door has some value, but with that configuration, it is easy to just open the door anyway and break the lock. Those locks are not very strong. May I recommend putting the lock in line with the geared rod and further from it, so when you lock it the arm will be horizontal and you would have to shear the lock to open the handle instead of just turning the arm. This seems to be a much stronger way of doing it.

    Subject: Re: yikes! Subpanel cutouts
    Van's sample is just for reference of different ways of reinforcing different sizes and shapes of holes. For a radio stack hole, if you use aluminum angle around the perimeter, with the horizontal angles on one side and the vertical angles on the other with a rivet holding the angles to each other in the corners, that seems to be the strongest format. Then you can make a bracket that ties the radios together or at least ties the heaviest and/or lowest to one of those angles or another sub-panel structure. Most radio trays have holes towards the back that you can put a #6 screw through into a brace, which can be made out of aluminum angle as well, which can then be bolted/screwed to one of the angles on the perimeter of the hole. Most round instruments aren't deep enough to need a hole in the sub- panel in my experience, but you may have things such as instrument cooling fans that will have hoses running to the back of the radio stack, and you will certainly have a lot of cables running between the radio stack and the other instruments, not to mention all of the wires for engine monitoring, electrical buss(es), pitot and static lines, remote magnetometers and ahrs units, etc. Find out how many things you have to run, then make at least double the number of holes you need to run them. I like to use 3/4" holes with snap bushings as much as possible, often with nutplates to screw cushion clamps onto for supporting wiring runs where needed around the subpanel, usually along the bottom.

Steve also sent me and additional lock cylinder that I will use on the baggage door. Great company to work with. -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=198519#198519 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1260_150.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1445_270.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1256_129.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1246_151.jpg http://forums.matronics.com//files/img_1230_342.jpg

    Subject: Re: door lock size requirement
    how far in line would this be? specifically how far is on the exterior where one would drill a hole for the placement? Thanks!

Thank you, Roger ----- Original Message ----- From: Jesse Saint To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 6:42 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: door lock size requirement Roger, I may caution against this format. The sight of a lock on the door has some value, but with that configuration, it is easy to just open the door anyway and break the lock. Those locks are not very strong. May I recommend putting the lock in line with the geared rod and further from it, so when you lock it the arm will be horizontal and you would have to shear the lock to open the handle instead of just turning the arm. This seems to be a much stronger way of doing it. If don't think I have a picture, but if I find one or get a chance to take one I'll post it. do not archive Jesse Saint Saint Aviation, Inc. jesse@saintaviation.com Cell: 352-427-0285 Fax: 815-377-3694 On Aug 13, 2008, at 5:46 PM, Roger Standley wrote: Does this do it for you? ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug Preston To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Wednesday, August 13, 2008 8:27 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: door lock size requirement If any of you have installed cabin door locks....please give us details and photos.

    Subject: Re: Reflections on Rudder Trim
    I tend to agree with Vans. We are on a trip around Australia at the moment so with only 20 hours on the plane when we left we just bent a 3 inch square piece of 032 and taped to rudder after adjustment we need slight right rudder for climb and then in cruise feet off and ball in the middle. Done 15 hours with it on and works well. Will paint and rivet on when we get home . Chris VH-ICY ----- Original Message ----- From: Dave Fritzsche (Building) To: RV-10 Matronics Sent: Thursday, August 14, 2008 9:30 AM Subject: RV10-List: Reflections on Rudder Trim I went to AirVenture with the intention of building a servo controlled rudder trim system into my rudder as I complete it. AirVenture gave me a good opportunity to look at the different implementations on flying RV-10s. There were quite a few. I stopped by Van's tent on several occasions and asked two different employees (those I consider two of the most knowledgeable) what Van's view is of servo controlled rudder trim. Both replied (independently of course) that it is not needed. That left me wondering about the rudder trim on commercially built, high performance aircraft. What better place to find out than to stroll over to the commercial exhibits. Here is what I found. The Bonanza has a 2.25" by 11" trim tab held onto the rudder by a comparable sized strip of aluminum on each side riveted to the rudder and to the trim tab. The Cirrus has a 2.5" by 8" tab riveted to one side of the rudder. The Columbia/Cessna 350/400 has the trim tab riveted to one side of the rudder. It is also slotted as shown in the picture. After talking with several Mooney salespeople, I was told that the airplane has a servo that is linked to the rudder control rod in a manner that effectively changes its length providing a trim effect. I was told by Cessna salespeople that the Skylane uses a servo and spring arrangement to adjust the tension on the rudder control cables. Thus there are a variety of methods used by the commercial manufacturers, almost as many as used by RV-10 builders. :-) Upon reflection, I have decided to rivet a tab, size yet to be determined, to one side of the rudder. It is a simple, inexpensive, ground adjustable solution in use by a number of high performance commercial airplane manufacturers.
