    Subject: side baffles side
    From: Pascal <rv10builder@verizon.net>
    I am leaning toward using a single piece side baffle on both sides versus the 3 piece that comes with the VAN's kit. Any one see any issues with doing so? I know the industry standard is three (one per cylinder)and I gather there is a reason for that (movement of cylinders) so not sure if having a single piece will cause any issues.. Thanks! P

    Thank you for the reply. While I am flying however, would there be any issue with a single sided baffle. I am thinking does the baffle need to move at all, is there a heat expansion issue that having three separate pieces would allow for expansion and contraction, etc.. Thanks!

    Subject: EGT sensor
    I have GRT EIS sensors; sent to GRT "My #4 EGT sensor seems to be failing; temperature is consistently 500 degrees below others and bounces around by about 100 increments every second or so; CHT normal. I ran a ground mag check at 1700 RPM and found the mag drops to be 1630 and 1620, so I am relatively certain that the engine is operating normal but sensor is not. Please advise. Aircraft is now at 210 TT." Anyone else have similar issue?

    You'll wind up with three pieces sooner or later anyway. Starting out with three pieces means you get to pick where the cracks go.

    Subject: Re: EGT sensor
    I don't know a whole lot specifically about the GRT system, but when I see something like that, I assume there is a bad connection somewhere in the system, either a pin making bad contact in the connector at the Engine Monitor, or a bad crimp or spade connection in the FWF area or a bad sensor. Is your CHT running about the same as the others? If so, then it's almost certainly a sensor issue, but not necessarily a bad sensor. I'd check the connections first if the CHT is normal. If both sensors on the same cylinder are off, that may point to some kind of problem with that cylinder, but if just one is off, then I'd go for the sensor or connection. My first guess would be a splice that is making connection part of the time and not making connection part of the time, because of the vibration.

    Subject: Vertical Power plug
    For those on the fence, I just wanted to plug Vertical Power. They are adding features as advertised on a regular basis, and the new features are really nice (variable speed trim, wig-wag and auto boost in the newest update). I did find a bug in the newest version of the software with how the VP was interpreting engine data from the Dynon. I sent them the data log as interpreted by the VP and the serial data as received by the VP (all very easily accessible on the VP-200 Display Unit with a thumb drive plugged in) and they had a software update e-mailed to me within 24 hours. BTW, the ability to export logged data as well as an EGT lean function are also new features with the updated software. Very impressive and very easy to deal with. I can extract the logged data from the Dynon with a computer hooked up to the serial connector (with a USB to Serial converter), but the ease of access by just plugging in a thumb drive while flying is much nicer. Great people to deal with and very nice equipment to fly behind. In case you're wondering, I do not stand to gain by this plug, just really appreciate great customer service and wanted to share.

    Subject: engine mount bolts
    From: "Eric_Kallio" <scout019@msn.com>
    Since Vans has decided not to include the engine mounts in my FWF kit am I going to have to order the bolts separately as well? I Ordered Lord mounts through my local FBO/repair station but I don't see the AN 7-26 bolts anywhere on the parts list for the FWF kit. My assumption is Vans would have sent the bolts with the mounts and now I have get them on my own. Is this correct? Eric Kallio 40518 Awaiting engine delivery.

    From: "marcausman" <marc@verticalpower.com>
    On my all-electric airplane, I replace the main battery and EFIS backup battery every two years to make sure they are always in top condition. YMMV. [quote="Phil.Perry(at)netapp.com"]Just thought about this. How often do the batteries in the Dynons need to be replaced and are they something you could buy locally or would you have to go back to the Dynon for them?

In the event of total electrical failure I can still aviate and navigate without the expense and hassle of the gyros. I've been very pleased so far with lots of IFR travels.

    From: "marcausman" <marc@verticalpower.com>
    Jeff, just to clarify, are you assuming the alternator will provide power if the battery goes off-line? I don't know your specifics, but the most common voltage regulators require a battery to be connected to "stabilize" the voltage. If your battery wire comes loose, for example, the voltage will likely start to quickly destabilize until the the over-voltage protection disables the alternator. Then you're left with just the EFIS backup battery. The caveat is that each of us has a unique airplane so your results may be different depending on the components you are using. jeff(at)westcottpress.com wrote: > I like the notion that the presentation and > operation of the two units is the same, and that would leave me with 4 > independent sources of power (alternator, battery and the two battery > packs), but common firmware. ." > > Jeff Carpenter > 40304 -------- Marc Ausman http://www.verticalpower.com &quot;Move up to a modern electrical system&quot; RV-7 IO-390 Flying Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=274132#274132

    IIRC, TCM lifters come out without splitting the case, however if the cam is damaged the engine will have to come out entirely to send back to TCM for repair. On new Lycoming engines you should not have any cam or lifter distress with the roller cam, but if you do, it is still pull the engine and tear it down, not a cylinder removal. Only ring, piston, valve, and piston pin plug problems are likely to cause a cylinder removal by itself.

    I needed to go to SW for the arm, Vans would only sell me the complete set. Poor instructions for sure- think it's one of Tim's Gotcha's, if it isnt, it should be, as many had this issue with the arm. I was lucky as I got someone who cared at SW and they shipped me the arms the same day and it was pretty cheeap, speaking spanish helps alot BTW ;-) they are a couple of dollars, it is more for shipping than the parts.

    Subject: Odd Firewall Rivet Question
    Hi Ages ago, when I completed section 27 - Firewall, I left 4 rivets open that did not show on the plans. Just inboard of the engine mount bolt holes on the WD-1002 / 1003 L&R engine mounts there is a #30 hole. This hole is found in both the firewall and on the engine mounts. Strangely, this "extra" hole is shown on the WD-1002-R-PC on page 27-2 (fig 2) of Rev 0 of the plans. It does not appear anywhere else in the plans (that I can find). The rivet call outs on page 27-5 does not reference this hole nor is an AN426-AD4-5 rivet, the longest callout in the plans, long enough to fill the hole. Before I fill these four holes with a longer rivet, can anyone tell me what their plans indicate? Inquiring minds need to know. Cheers Les #40643

They are adding features as advertised on a regular basis, and the new features are really nice (variable speed trim, wig-wag and auto boost in the newest update). I did find a bug in the newest version of the software with how the VP was interpreting engine data from the Dynon. I sent them the data log as interpreted by the VP and the serial data as received by the VP (all very easily accessible on the VP-200 Display Unit with a thumb drive plugged in) and they had a software update e-mailed to me within 24 hours. BTW, the ability to export logged data as well as an EGT lean function are also new features with the updated software. Very impressive and very easy to deal with. I can extract the logged data from the Dynon with a computer hooked up to the serial connector (with a USB to Serial converter), but the ease of access by just plugging in a thumb drive while flying is much nicer. Great people to deal with and very nice equipment to fly behind. In case you're wondering, I do not stand to gain by this plug, just really appreciate great customer service and wanted to share.

    I had been seeing similar variations on my fuel pressure readout. I called Sandy at GRT while doing my Condition Inspection and she seemed pretty positive that my fuel pressure sender was the likely culprit. She sent me a new one, I installed it, and the fuel pressure indication is now rock solid. She mentioned that some operators seem to get a pretty short life out of the fuel senders, (Mine had 163.5 hours on it) and some operators don't have problems. Mine is mounted on the firewall in the stock Van's location. Excellent customer service from GRT!
