    I have a 3 port avionics blower. One of the ports is split into 2 outputs to feed each of my LSE ignitions (3/8" air inlets). According to Klaus you don't need much volume, just something to move the air around so just about anything you pick will do fine.

    Not all that much like an RV-10, but you can use an Arrow to get both constant speed and complex time. It's low wing, but certainly not as powerful as the RV. Some flight schools have the Katana, which is the older 2-seat version of the DA-40. That has constant speed. Uncomfortable as hell, though. If you don't mind high wing, find a 182. Often the CAP folks rent out their 182's. Helps pay their bills.

    Tim, I wouldn't worry about trying to find something that "like" an RV-10 because you really won't. Find something that's fixed gear and constant speed and go with it - that will get you in the groove of dealing with the blue knob. I don't know what you're used to flying but it's likely that the two biggest transition areas are going to be speed management and the avionics. If you're going with a G900 panel and can find a rental with a G1000 and constant speed prop that would be ideal. The stick will take just a few minutes to get used to.

    The Arrow is usually classified as high performance, if memory serves. But, you certainly don't need complex. I think a Dakota would be the other Piper choice, maybe even a better solution. You just need to be familiar with handling the prop, so really anything that has 210 and over in horsepower and a constant speed should be okay. _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Rene Felker Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 12:54 PM Subject: RE: RV10-List: local training?

    Only the 210 hp Turbo Arrow would be high performance. The 180hp and most common 200hp Arrows are only complex, not HP. Of the low wing variety only the SR20 and 22 are going to be similar. Piper Dakota or PA-28-235 Pathfinder would work. In fact older SR22's are selling for about what a nice RV-10 costs to build. Lancair/Columbia/Cessna 350 might work but is a bit hotter and higher hp.

I was about to relace the concorde battery with an odyssey, but perhaps I need a higher torque starter??

We installed the engine in 2005 with a Sky-Tec High Torque HT starter, which supposedly was the best one they had back then. Anyway, whenever I would do a cold start of the engine the prop would make about a half revolution and stop, like it didn't have enough power to it. I would then try again and it would turn fine. Another RV friend of mine on my field told me about a new starter that Sky-Tec came out with that took less volts and turned the prop slower. It's a High Torque in Line NL. This friend was having the same problem with his 7, which has high compression pistons. We both switched to this new NL starter and it solved our problem. The new starter weighed a little bit more than my old one, something like a pound. I live in TX, so cold isn't a problem but I fly up into the cold country and was worried I wasn't going to get started on some cold day. Sky-Tec are really good people located right here near me in Granbury, TX and they took my old starter in on trade against the new one and it cost me $250 to upgrade. I thought that was a pretty good deal. Anyway I just thought I would pass this along in case any of you are experiencing the same problem as I had. Wayne Edgerton N602WT

    Don't even think about the LS series on a 540 engine. Much higher current draw and lower torque. Likely to have difficulty even getting past first compression stroke unless you have a very healthy battery. IMHO the Kelly E drive starter is a better choice than any of the Skytech. No relation, just comparing specs and reports of satisfied users. Main difference is a clutch to protect against kickback vs Skytech uses a shear pin than requires removal of starter to replace.

    If it has the Lycoming IO360 engine, it IS a 200 hp engine. There are not any certified versions for fixed wing with higher rated horsepower. Even the STC for 10:1 compression pistons requires de-rating MP to limit the engine to 200 hp. It doesn't matter what the engine dyno's at, other than FAA limit is +5% of rated power. It is rated HP that matters for the HP endorsement. If school is endorsing based on some phony marketing rating, they and their students risk FAA action.

    Isn't the regulation that it must be GREATER than 200 (ie 201) or it doesn't qualify for H.P.? I think if anything that the manufacturers would UNDER list them so they could sell more planes and have a larger customer base by not having them forced to have an endorsement to fly it.

    You are correct. Only TCM makes an IO-360 rated at more than 200hp, as in 220RV, the 210hp engine. Used in very few certified aircraft without turbocharging.

    From: "tomhanaway" <tomhanaway@comcast.net>
    When I got my Lycoming IO-540 it came with the LS skytech motor. I purchased it though Van's at Sun and Fun 2008. A thread was going on at the time that recommended the NL as a better starter. Of course, I went through the stress thing of "jeez, I just bought this engine and theres already something not right :^). Anyway, I took a look at the Skytech site and they specifically had a note that the NL should be used rather than the LS. I confirmed it by speaking with Skytech. The motor had not been hung at the time, much less started. I contacted Lycoming, referred them to the Skytech website comments about the starter. Lycoming sent me a new NL starter and I returned the LS. No charge. Left me pretty impressed with the Lycoming customer service. Your mileage may vary.

    Subject: local training?
    I submitted a proposal to the FSDO to give transition training in my RV10 commercially. I included that I would include the HP endorsement if necessary. They came back to me and said that I must agree not to give the HP endorsement. as it could be accomplished in certified aircraft. They acknowledged that I would have to train to HP proficiency but could not signoff per the agreement. I had given consideration to providing RV10 transition for the Southwest. I already had concluded that it was at best a breakeven deal, The rules on the HP endorsement were the proverbial straw which made the decision for me.. For those of you needing transition training: If you have 500-1000+ hours and a CFI friend with an RV10. It may be possible to be added to his policy as named insured a no additional cost. He cannot legally charge you for his time or aircraft but you can pay the operational expenses for the flight. This works only if your insurance requirements are small and your total time is relatively high. Otherwise your best solution may be OR or TX at $200+ per hour plus living and transportation expense. _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Tim Olson Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 5:42 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: local training?

    Subject: local training?
    I have only had my "free" flight in an RV-10 so my opinion may not be all that accurate but I'd recommend Cessna 206 time. Those might be a bit easier to find in the rental fleet. The rate the 206 comes out of the sky at idle felt pretty similar to power off in the 10. I've got about 200 hours of 206 time and it seemed to me my 10min of 10 time felt comparable to a 206 with respect to ground handling with a heavier airframe, takeoff p-factor, pretty healthy climb for a Cessna, power off decent, big throaty motor, complexity of systems, overall stability of the platform in flight. They aren't quite as fast but you can make an honest 135-140kts in a 300hp 206. -Ben Westfall _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of David McNeill Sent: Tuesday, July 07, 2009 7:45 PM Subject: RE: RV10-List: local training?
