    Subject: Re: Wiring diagram for Slick Start with 2 Slick Mags
    Rene, I think you gave me exactly the configuration I need to go with. Thanks for the key switch function matrix - that's one I didn't have though I have the wiring diagram and do understand how it should be wired now. I'm a bit amazed at the nature of the documentation surrounding the Slick Start and Mags in general. I'm now aware of 2 distinctly different service letters, several versions of the Slick Start unit itself (pin 2 is labeled but gone), and for SL2-96, there's a revision E and F that are distinctly different. Handling all these legacy setups in the certified aircraft environment looks really challenging for the manufacturers. For anyone with a stock 540 from Vans, with 2 Slick mags (no electronic ignition), and the standard key switch from Spruce, it appears you need to add the Slick Start module to the setup (which is not included in the FWF kit nor with the engine, nor is it doc'd anywhere I've found), and you need to wire it as described below. At least that's the conclusion I've come to with a lot of help from quite a few.

    Subject: Planning Questions
    From: "Perry, Phil" <Phil.Perry@netapp.com>
    Now that my QB fuse arrived last week, I'm starting to get my mind around some of the systems and how I would like to lay them out. I've got a couple of nagging questions. 1) Electrical - Has anyone developed any creative routes for the wire runs? Or is everyone stilling with the four =BE" holes (2 per side) under the mid-fuse deck. 2) Fuel - Why is everyone choosing the Andair fuel valve? Where's the best place to pick one up? 3) O2 - I was thinking of putting an O2 bottle in the baggage compartment and then routing the lines into the Overhead Console from the rear. Then I could put a quick connect over each seat. Is that acceptable? Do they just hang in your face? I'm just trying to save as much room as I can with this routing, so I can save the space inside the =BE" holes mentioned in #1. Thanks, Phil

    Wiring runs are a big deal as is the static line run going from the rear to the panel. Van's pre-wire kit is a pretty good purchase at this point or at least install the #2 wire from the battery/s to the firewall. I also like the idea of installing the static line. Installed a few of the Van's conduits from the rear to the panel area. Put some pull tapes in the conduit to pull thru future wires. Remember the stuff that is in the aft area like the AHARS or Magnetometer, battery, Strobe system controller, aft strobes and antenna wires for Nav, and Com. Do not worry too much as your conduit will help if you forget anything. I also like the idea of an inspection port for the boarding step (see prior post) or to just nut plate the rear panels. -------- OSH '10 or Bust Q/B Kit - phase 1 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=262955#262955

    I ended up with three holes on the right side and they are packed full of w ire. For some reason I got more running down the right side. If you plan be tter than I did then you'll probably do okay with just 4 holes. The Andair valve is a superb piece of equipment. No comparison.

    Your best best on the wiring runs is to plan ahead. Figure out your distribution scheme and how many wires you will need to run fore and aft. Then try to separate your power wires from your antenna/headset cables (left side - right side, for example). Keep any other sensitive systems away from strobe power supplies too. Once you have that figured out use all the holes in the fuselage and then drill some more. Protect the wires with grommets. There is nothing wrong with the supplied fuel valve. Mine has worked just fine for 10 years. A lot of folks get the Andair valve just because they like it. Your idea on the O2 will work just fine. The bottle can be mounted in the baggage compartment with a short jumper to a bulkhead fitting into a side panel (not the baggage bulkhead - it needs to be removable). Mountain High has the tubing and fittings to run the connections anywhere while keeping them out of sight behind the side panels or in the overhead console. Other suppliers probably have the same. -------- Dave Moore RV-6 flying RV-10 QB - cabin top/fiberglass hell Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=262968#262968

    Phil, 1. I have one =BE=94 and one 1 =BC=94 conduit on each side going to the back. I also have one =BE=94 on each side going to underneath the rear seats for comm antennas. This <http://mykitlog.com/users/display_log.php?user=rleffler&project=260& categor y=0&log=87585&row=1> picture is on mykitlog site. 2. Because of known issues with the standard Van=92s valve. Unfortunately, the best place to get them is direct from Andair. ACS doesn=92t stock them, but they will special order. The extender costs two arms and a leg. They change about an extra $100 for the extender. 3. That would work. Another alternative is to put one of Geoff Combs=92 Caron Fiber Center Arm Rest Consoles. He has a place inside the arm rest that you can put headset and oxygen jacks with the cables coming out at your waist. I think it solves both problems. Geoff=92s website should be online later this week.

    Subject: Planning Questions
    If you decide to roll your own electrical system, you might consider the following guidelines (1) standardize on a limited number of wire sizes,; this will result in some wires carrying less than they could but will simplify your purchase of pieces in larger quantities. For example everyone is going to need about 20-25 ft of 002 gauge wire for the runs from the starting battery(ies). Other gauges can be purchased in 100 -500 ft lengths. I used 002, 8 14, 20, shielded 22 in triplets or quads. (2) I chose to run DC down the left side of the aircraft and digital data down the right; obviously there were some exceptions due to location of the devices. (3) For current or future use , both a primary and essential bus should be planned. B&C specialty provides power diodes for separation. (4) For simplicity, each appliance can be controlled by a pull able or toggle breaker. Its a little more expensive but putting multiple devices per breaker and introducing additional switches limits flexibility and increase complication. It also makes troubleshooting more strait forward. (5) Buy/borrow the necessary tools and buy the quality and quantity of terminals, butt connectors , dsub pins, etc. (6) when using connectors and multiple shielded wires, triplets for example, document the use of each colored wire in each set of triplets. (7) I have attached a picture of my primary and essential buses with connecting 35A toggle breaker and power diode. _____ From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Danny Riggs Sent: Monday, September 14, 2009 9:37 AM Subject: RE: RV10-List: Planning Questions I ended up with three holes on the right side and they are packed full of wire.

    Subject: Re: Planning Questions
    Wiring wise, what I did was get a copy of the Van's wiring kit and parts list, use their plan as a starting point. Since I did a 2 batt, 2 alt, Z-14, I basically doubled the Vans plan. Then laid in 2 empty conduits that I couldn't figure out how to use. They are both now in use since installing a GRT AHRS, Magnetometer, re-running the static line, and other misc decisions. The Van's plans keep turning out to be extremely valuable for this newbie - used it last night for FWF wiring ideas. For electrical, buy an assortment of Adel clamps and those plastic grommets. Beats trying to anticipate your next design decision. I think I'll regret not putting in access doors for the steps. I bought 2 extra access hatch kits (for the stall warning access) to do the job but got lazy. Look at Vans Strobe power supply kit and AHRS kit for easy installation of those things back by the battery. The Andair valve is REAL NICE in all respects; except, it may not be easy to get exactly what you want, when you want it from the manufacturer. They're a bit sluggish. You have to do some designing and thinking around the valve though.

    Subject: Safety wiring the alternator
    I'm fitting up the alternator and it's belt tensioning bracket (a 40amp from B&C). The bolts are drilled for safety wire but the 2 bolts are like 8" apart. Do I just run the safety wire between the 2 bolts? Seems long but there are no other obvious tie-off points. Bill "FWF" Watson

    Shouldn't be a problem. Just get good twist on the wires. There are several places on my RV-4 with that large a gap in the safety wire. I assume the bolts are going into threads on the mount? If nuts are used, just use locknuts (all-metal, due to temperature considerations in the engine compartment).

    Subject: Re: Wiring diagram for Slick Start with 2 Slick Mags
    From: Kelly McMullen <apilot2@gmail.com>
    You arrive at this goofy situation, because the certified aircraft the RV-10 engine is derived from, the Comanche 250/260, AFAIK, came with Bendix mags and Bendix vibrator, for "shower of sparks" setup. After Lycoming became a division of Textron, it just wouldn't do to purchase magnetos from a division of Teledyne Continental...Bendix. So they had to switch to Unison Slick. There are enough differences, that when Unison came out with SlickStart, they had to make a separate Bendix version to use with Bendix mags. My understanding is the Bendix version is no longer made. You do have the option of getting the appropriate Bendix vibrator, instead of the Slick Start...but not a lot cheaper. Probably more history than you wanted.

    Subject: Re: Aztec baffle for Rv-10
    From: Kelly McMullen <apilot2@gmail.com>
    I wouldn't bank on it. Baffling above the engine is made to fit the specific cowling. The Aztec cowl is very bulbous, compared to the RV cowl. If you don't mind doing a LOT of cutting and fitting, you could do it, but not a real productive use of your time. You can of course use the intercylinder baffles on the bottom of the cylinders.

    I used a D-sub connector. This area tends to collect dirt with time so if you use the terminal strip then consider covering it in some way. Connectors are less susceptible to environmental contamination. -------- Dave Moore RV-6 flying RV-10 QB - cabin top/fiberglass hell Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=263083#263083

    I forgot to mention one item that made my wiring much neater and easier to manage. That product is "Click Bond" - the small zip tie attach points are an awesome product. I spent about $100 on the very pricy attach points - worth every cent. If they are good enough for Boeing and Northrop - they are good enuf for me. -------- OSH '10 or Bust Q/B Kit - phase 1 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=263095#263095 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/p7052343_484.jpg
