    Dear Listers, There are just a few more days left of this year's List Fund Raiser! Response has been very good, but still well behind last year. If you've been waiting until the last minute to make your contribution and maybe even pick up a great gift, now might be good time to show your support! Please remember that there isn't any sort of commercial advertising on the Lists and the *only* means of keeping these Lists running is through your Contributions during this Fund Raiser. Please make a Contribution today! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you! Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator

    Subject: Re: DYNON Magnometer Location
    I have one, it's mounted on two 3/4 by .125 angle with a aluminum plate. Th is assembly is attached to the longerons behind the baggage bulkhead. Works fine. The magnometer only has four #20 IIRC wires so the cable is small an d easy to route. Make sure you mount the units with brass screws. I used fo ur nylon posts that I could adjust to allow the unit to be level on all axi s.

    I built small shelves either side of the vertical stringer behind the center of the baggage compartment to hold my compass and AHRS. I'll have redundant units, so there is a pair mounted to either side. I have no experience with that location, and someone mentioned that the changing stuff in the baggage compartment could change things for the compass etc. I was worried about access in case of repairs. It's hard to find anyplace devoid of things that can adversely effect these units, so I set my stuff up on the bench and held large nuts, bolts and other 'stuff' around the mounted units (on the bench, not in the airplane) to see how sensitive they were. My MGL units aren't that sensitive to the hardware that I was using for the test, so I'm fairly sure that the spot I selected is going to be OK.

    Hi Jay- You have not said much about your tubing - rigid or hose. However, I also m ade an EZ home setup that works great. Some of my findings: - If you have a Tygon hose setup check your supply of plastic fittings. Cheap ones have flashing on the barbs that create leaks. Best source for "fresh or soft" Tygon and fittings is www.usplastics.com. This is the approach I t ook and passed two official pitot/static tests with "zero leakage". - Also, if you have vinyl hose on your test setup it is guaranteed to-leak and the leak will change with temperature. - Looks like your getting close. - Bill DeRouchey N939SB - --- On Thu, 11/19/09, Rick Sked <ricksked@embarqmail.com> wrote: From: Rick Sked <ricksked@embarqmail.com> Subject: Re: RV10-List: Pitot system testing You may want to check the tray if you have a TruTrak AP installed, I had an issue with the tray when testing the panel alone.

    FYI. There is no regulatory pitot check and so no such thing as a pitot/static check. Only the static system and your transponder reporting system is checked. Don't assume that your pitot system is checked as part of a standard 91.411 or 91.413 certification.

    The critical test is static. Cannot lose more than 100' in one min. Assuming 1000 ft on altimeter.I had a leak on TT ap 10 tray. Called and they sent new block that is on back of tray. Some have been a problem. Retrofitted all lines to the safe air system. Works beautifully and all quick disconnect. can also use fittings from truck air system.

    Subject: Re: Pitot system testing
    If you are going to fly where a transponder and encoder are required, a static system check is required. If you care about protecting your airspeed instrumentation, the pitot system must be connected and maintained at the same pressure as the static system, otherwise you will overspeed the airspeed indicator once the static system is raised to altitude. As you say, it isn't regulatory, it is good safe practice for the instruments. A side benefit is that the airspeed can be verified at the same time. Some of us have the joy of operating under a mode C veil for our home base, making encoder and certification mandatory before first flight. William Curtis wrote: > FYI.

    ;) yeah and for the wheel axles with extensions I went to the farm store and bought a "bigass" combination wrench and cut it in half for easier maneuvering. Gotta love them tools. BTW: harbor freight has a flyer out with the infared laser thermometer on sale for under $30. When you need one they're awesome.

    Subject: Nose wheel nut wrench
    From: "Robin Marks" <robin1@mrmoisture.com>
    It's easy to remember: Don McDonald had a wrench, E-I-E-I-O I agree completely with drilling the nut or extra hole concept. We drilled the nut after finding one was too tight and one was too loose. The other day I was heading out for my regular commute when I saw a friend in his sweet F33 Bonanza in the run up area. We waved and he was off for his left downwind. I completed my run-up as another two departures and an arrival proceeded my left downwind. I ended up passing the F33 at on my way through 8,000' to 9,500'. I was climbing faster and at a greater rate of climb. While we were not that close to each other he did comment that he could see my "shit eating grin." All I could say is that its an "official RV Shit eating grin" thank you very much and shit never tasted so good! The more I fly the -10 the more I like it. I am not sure if it's the avionics suite, the comfort or it's utilitarian nature but it is one terrific airplane.
