Subject: | Re: Quick Build Factory |
Thanks to all that have responded to my inquiry regarding a tour or visit to the
Quick Build factory in Manila.
I am back in Tokyo now and still haven't heard a peep from the representative to
Vans in Manila. Of course it is a little disappointing; but I will give them
the benefit of the doubt since they are trying to re-establish their factory
in a new location.
I don't anticipate having to order the fuselage until late fall or early winter
of 2009, but I am having concerns about waiting till then and then having to
wait another six months for the product to arrive. Hopefully things will have
turned around and Vans can put a more definite schedule out soon.
If I do hear from the Manila factory, I will be sure to post that information and
if I do get the opportunity to visit, I will be sure to update this thread.
Fly safe,

I did the saw horse method, turning the tailcone over and from side-to-side as
required. I did as much as I could solo and then recruited my wife to shoot while
I bucked. Came out fine.

Subject: | Installing SJ RV10 mainwheel pants |
Does anyone have pictures of their RV10 SJ mainwheel pant installation?
I am getting ready to start instaling a set of SJ RV10 mainwheel pants on my oversize
RV6A mains. I have the RV6 wheelpant hardware and want to be sure that
the RV10 hardware is not more appropriate.
I would also like to see the stock RV10 wheelpant installation dosumentation -
if someone is willing (or already has) to scan it for me.
Thanks,
Ralph

I'm sure the Deems does. If he doesn't have a picture, nobody does. Let me know
if you need the url.

Just a quibble: two 1" lines will not "maintain the flow volume" of one 2" line,
since the cross sectional area varies as the square of the diameter (e.g., two
1" lines provide half the cross sectional area as a single 2" line).

I am not aware of any 10 yet featuring the James Wheel Pant Mod. I would be surprised
if Deems or Robin went that route. Let us all know what you find. Barnaby
Wainfan of Kitplanes Mag, did a presentation at OSH '08 on how poor the
massive, bulbous style is for drag reduction. I was even more enlightened that
the leg fairings can create so much loss of speed - I thought they were okay.
There was an interesting post that was never resolved (in the archives) on
the need for additional rudder trim as a result of the nose fairing trailing edges
resting canted off the longitudinal axis in flight.
Deems site is a great documentary on the Stock VANS wheel pant install. Good Luck
with the performance improvement.

Subject: | Installing SJ RV10 mainwheel pants |
We're installing both the James wheel pants, and one of my partners is a fiberglass
guru...so we'll see how he does on those. We're also doing a different style
of rudder trim, more like what the Lancair uses, in fact, it was built by
one of my partners who's built Lancairs (I only helped him with some metal bends).
As soon as it's finished (almost!!), I'll see if I'm smart enough to post
pics here. It uses a cut out section of the original rudder (with the extrusion
in it), that is then reinforced with a Z piece and some other pieces sandwiched
together with an extruded hinge section. It definitely looks spiffy,
but it has not been for the faint of sheet metal talent. There have been lots
of hours involved...and helping a lot was to have a complete working model of
the Lancair rudder trim system on the desk while we were building this.

And a good quibble it is...I know that, but my point was that going from one
2" line to a single 1" line may not provide enough heat...I was just trying
to "fit between" the pieces I have and that's why I proposed the idea. I
haven't started doing anything on it, still scratching my head...
Thanks for the clarity and observation!

Just a quibble: two 1" lines will not "maintain the flow volume" of one 2"
line, since the cross sectional area varies as the square of the diameter
(e.g., two 1" lines provide half the cross sectional area as a single 2"
line).

Bob, regarding the amount of heat. .... I've spoken with a couple of

reducer in the baffle opening that supplies air to his heat exchangers.
This would be a good topic to hear from some other fliers as to their

Interestingly enough, it may actually, by decreasing the flow, increase the
temp of the air that's actually coming out back there. I'm just surmising
here, but if you restrict the velocity going from 2" to 1", the air may have
more time to be heated by the pipes...you'll have to let me know. When's

My experience with slightly over 65 hours is that there is way more
heat than necessary except in the most extreme conditions. I am
careful about having items on the back seat floor near the heat vents
when I am using heat. I also noticed that my panel was pretty warm
and my defrost fans were putting out pretty warm air while flying
phase 1 during some pretty cold weather in Minnesota back in
December. This was due to lots of heat coming out of the front seat
vents.

I would agree with this. Slowing the airflow will likely raise the temp
quite a bit. When the airflow is turned down, it is still very very
hot.
But, while in my plane I can say there is more than enough heat
available, I don't know anymore if this is universal. There are now
planes flying with the Forsling exhaust instead of the standard
Vetterman, and I know at least one of those guys is struggling to
keep the heat coming out. Not sure if it's the heat muff style
or something else, but it's just that we now need more reports
from people with other various systems before you can know that
every one has the same heating performance.

One of my data points is from a pilot flying with the Forsling ceramic
coated exhaust & heat muffs and a 290 hp BPE engine * James plenum/cowl.
He's the one that put the reducer plate on the scat tube baffle flange.
He experimented with the opening and finally settled on an 1/4" hole in
the reducer plate to allow sufficient air/heat. I was surprised to hear
that, and questioned it, but he say's 1/4" !!!!!

Just some pictures of our trip to Branson using the lean function of the GRT

Hmm, I don't know but I'm guessing it's a combination of the heat muff style
and the fact it's ceramic coated inside and out. I plan on using a Forsling also
and John doesn't seem to put a whole lot of thought into getting a heat muff
on his pipes or at least that used to be the case. That reminds me, need to
order my exhaust.

I would agree with this. Slowing the airflow will likely raise the temp
quite a bit. When the airflow is turned down, it is still very very
hot.
But, while in my plane I can say there is more than enough heat
available, I don't know anymore if this is universal. There are now
planes flying with the Forsling exhaust instead of the standard
Vetterman, and I know at least one of those guys is struggling to
keep the heat coming out. Not sure if it's the heat muff style
or something else, but it's just that we now need more reports
from people with other various systems before you can know that
every one has the same heating performance.

We have the Forsling exhaust.
Two heat muffs & just about the right amount of heat for NZ. Have to
turn the rear ones on at 9000ft & higher.
Otherwise, for local low level stuff we pretty much have the rear &
fronts off for most of the time.
No complaints at all about Forsling exhausts, and they sound really
great!

Ok, now I am really confused... Why didn't you want to visit California
because of how the state voted? And when you took a family vote only the
senior vote counted. How very red state of you... (all in fun)
David, my real question is how did you get CHT/EGT's to read on both the
Chelton & GRT?
Also am I reading that right on the GRT there is a fuel left/right that
don't seem to add up to the total. 22/19 (L/R) 45.6 Total. I ask because
this is the 3rd or 4th time I noticed this on peoples EMS photo posts.
You have to love 9-10 GPH and 169 ground speed.

I found a simple solution to mine.
Took one of the Vetterman muffs off, and only use one to feed to the
firewall valve.
Can still select front, rear or both and it worked fine this winter
(once I insulated the baggage compartment bulkhead).

Others who have not purchased the Barrett engine or mated Forsling custom b
alanced headers can rest assured that Monty & John extracted additional pon
ies from this special dynoed offering. I started talking with John the day
Van first offered Randy the chance to begin #1 (Osh '05). John was both r
eceptive and conversant on many of Bruce Bohannon's and Kevin E's exhaust f
eatures from other performance aircraft. It includes some alignment featur
es from the Cold Air Induction. The Vetterman and American variants are fi
ne for most, but not tuned nor balanced for the special Barrett touches tha
t make it stand out in that crowded field.
The sounds and the looks are unique too. Patiently waiting for Deems smile

Just a stab at it, but the 22/19 is probably from the calibrated
floats and the 45.6 is probably from the totalizer (60 when full -
14.4 used = 45.6 remaining). Totally separate systems.
