I used a protractor with a weighted indicator that moves as you rotate the
device. Easy way to measure moving parts. Here's a link to the one I have

I purchased an electronic level from the aviation department of home depot.
Cost a little under $40 before tax. I though it was well worth it. Used on
tail...flaps....magnetometer placement... made it all a lot easier.

It's been a while but I think I layed a straight edge across the top
of the elevator and the horizontal stab, in the most consistent
place I could. Then that was zero. From there, at the time, I used
this $4 Dial-gauge angle finder from Harbor Freight.
http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=34214
Surprisingly it worked pretty good.
But these days, I found something way cooler....something that is
just my style.

Ditto... Craftsman Digital Level for me.
Placed it on the elevator and pressed the "0" button. That was now the
starting point. Then I could rotate the elevator to confirm the travel.
Once I finished, I was curious as to why this was such a big deal. I
think it's nearly impossible to mess up the elevator travel. I suppose
it's a good thing to check, but mine were spot-on by .1 of a degree. :)

Also, you might check with your local EAA Chapter for some of those
resources. Vern's chapter (EAA292) has a top of the line Stabila electronic
level and protractor that we loan out to our members for free. In these
times, free resources like these add up.

I thought the elevator travel was limited by the stops in the tail of the
fuselage? The elevator horns contacted the stops. I don't
recall having to measure the elevator travel at all with a angle
finder.

Aw shoot....I was talking trim deflection.
You're right. For elevators I just lined up the horns with the HS.

If I remember correctly. You need to check and adjust elevator travel once
the linkage all the way to the stick is established. I was having my stick,
with infinity grip, hit the panel and thus tried to solve that problem by
adjusting the linkage..so It may have been different to me.

Subject: Re: RV10-List: Elevator level
I thought the elevator travel was limited by the stops in the tail of the
fuselage? The elevator horns contacted the stops. I don't recall having to
measure the elevator travel at all with a angle finder.
I may be wrong about this.

It's been a while but I think I layed a straight edge across the top
of the elevator and the horizontal stab, in the most consistent
place I could. Then that was zero.

Surprisingly it worked pretty good.
But these days, I found something way cooler....something that is
just my style.

N311RV took to the air today for an uneventful, and therefore successful,
first flight. As everyone else says, it flies hands off. What a great plane!

Whew! - You guys had me worried there!
I just
followed the directions posted on Tim's web site to set up the elevator
trim travel. They worked perfectly!

Aw

You're right. For elevators
I just lined up the horns with the HS.

| Subject: | Fuel & Oil line torque values - help ??? |
I was told to use a high temp permatex thread sealer on the fuel and oil lines
(VA190, VA135 etc) to the oil cooler and fuel pressure monitor hoses.
What are the torque values on these aeroquip hoses (fuel & oil)????
Also - Alert note......................I got my FWF kit in the summer of '07. My
VA190 hose was of the wrong diameter. I would suggest that people who got their
FWF kits about then check the hose to make sure that it was right. I sent
back the defective hose and Gus very kindly sent me the proper one. The VA190
takes a 7/8 wrench to turn. If you have a smaller exterior nut - it is the wrong
size.
