| Subject: | Re: Installing main gear leg fairings first |
I have had to fly with my wheel pants off before and attached to the
fuselage fairing , the alignment is maintained . Do not let anyone tow
your main gear over an oversized chock. It will severely damage the
wheel fairing. Robert

| Subject: | vibration in mains on roll out |
I have written about this once before and have talked with the factory
several times. I have rebalanced the tires, changed to new and better
tires (Customs) and dynamically balanced those plus checked for true
roundness. I have balanced the wheel covers, have installed a new axel
for the nose, a new nose strut (which brought the nose up and did help),
and have installed a washer under the doenuts to raise the nose a bit
more. I also installed new doenuts at 300 hours, have gone back to
flying with 60lbs in the back if only one or two people are in the
plane. I land with full flaps, flare with a little power in and stick
all the way back, (on final, the plane feels like a balloon, or the hand
of God sustaining you), but after touch-down and just as the speed goes
under 40mph on roll out the mains shutter. They shutter a lot if you
apply the brakes, especially if you are rolling down hill when you apply
the brakes. They shutter none or very little (now, after doing the
above) if the day is calm enough for a full falp landing and you just
hold the stick back and roll out. This seems the be an issue with the
angle from which weight rests on the mains, and the change in that angle
as the plane slows, also perhaps a loss of pressure on the elevator,
letting the nose sink a little more. (I have checked the brakes
repeatedly for wear and/or sticking and seen no signs of that.) The
whole thing reminds me of being on a train when the brakes are applied
and your chest and head are thrown forward, minus a few obvious
differences . . . . Usually the train doesn't vibrate.
I still have a second washer that I could install to get a little more
up attitude for the nose, which should retard dip in the nose, such dip
seeming to coincide with the onset of vibration. Otherwise I am out of
ideas, so write you guys.
Question: Anyone else had vibration in the mains upon roll out and/or
braking? Given everything already done to address this vibration, is
raising the nose a bit more in fact the next step? Wisdoms welcomed.
In all fairness I should add that this is the nicest flying plane I have
encountered, though the RV 6-A is a complete angel too, and the 6 I have
flown has no vibration on roll out. Both planes, of course, have round,
tube-like struts similar to what I have seen on some Cessnas, dancing
like Fred Astaire chasing Ginger Rogers down the runway.

I had great luck with Click Bond nutplates wherever I used them. You
must follow the prep instructions closely and use the two part epoxy
they recommend. They are a bit pricey, but worth it in certain
locations.

| Subject: | vibration in mains on roll out |
Na.... no one else has seen that before. :) Seriously though, LOTS of disc
ussion on this subject in the past and a good search of the archives will n
et you discussions on many of the things you have already tried. Recently
there was discussion on the toe in/out and how easy it was to end up with w
ildly varying toe measurements with just a little movement when drilling th
e mains. Might be worth checking your toe adjustment.

Subject: RV10-List: vibration in mains on roll out
I have written about this once before and have talked with the factory seve
ral times. I have rebalanced the tires, changed to new and better tires (C
ustoms) and dynamically balanced those plus checked for true roundness. I
have balanced the wheel covers, have installed a new axel for the nose, a n
ew nose strut (which brought the nose up and did help), and have installed
a washer under the doenuts to raise the nose a bit more. I also installed
new doenuts at 300 hours, have gone back to flying with 60lbs in the back i
f only one or two people are in the plane. I land with full flaps, flare w
ith a little power in and stick all the way back, (on final, the plane feel
s like a balloon, or the hand of God sustaining you), but after touch-down
and just as the speed goes under 40mph on roll out the mains shutter. They
shutter a lot if you apply the brakes, especially if you are rolling down
hill when you apply the brakes. They shutter none or very little (now, aft
er doing the above) if the day is calm enough for a full falp landing and y
ou just hold the stick back and roll out. This seems the be an issue with
the angle from which weight rests on the mains, and the change in that angl
e as the plane slows, also perhaps a loss of pressure on the elevator, lett
ing the nose sink a little more. (I have checked the brakes repeatedly for
wear and/or sticking and seen no signs of that.) The whole thing reminds
me of being on a train when the brakes are applied and your chest and head
are thrown forward, minus a few obvious differences . . . . Usually the tra
in doesn't vibrate.
I still have a second washer that I could install to get a little more up a
ttitude for the nose, which should retard dip in the nose, such dip seeming
to coincide with the onset of vibration. Otherwise I am out of ideas, so
write you guys.
Question: Anyone else had vibration in the mains upon roll out and/or brak
ing? Given everything already done to address this vibration, is raising t
he nose a bit more in fact the next step? Wisdoms welcomed.
In all fairness I should add that this is the nicest flying plane I have en
countered, though the RV 6-A is a complete angel too, and the 6 I have flow
n has no vibration on roll out. Both planes, of course, have round, tube-l
ike struts similar to what I have seen on some Cessnas, dancing like Fred A
staire chasing Ginger Rogers down the runway.

I had the same problem with my 6 and I fasted wood stiffeners the same
length as the gear leg under the gear fairing and the problem went
away.
I have not tried it on my 10 since my problem shows up with passengers
in the back only and it is not that bad.

Thanks Larry
The eye bolt does not go up into the extrusion that far so it does not become a
problem. Weakening the extrusion is my only concern. With the extrusion a snap
bushing would not snap into place. A alternative method of protection would
have to be provided.

We had this same issue, turns out our axle nuts needed to be tightened. Try re-torquing

| Subject: | Cylinder Temp Range |
It's hard for those that know me on the list to believe I am about to
ask this question but...
How low is too low for CHT's? As many of know I have been battling high
CHT's due to my cowl/plenum configuration. Recently I have been flying
LOP which has greatly reduced my CHT's which was the goal all along. I
now have significant control over CHT's when LOP as a function of that
funny red knob.
My question is how low is too low to run cylinders? I have read pretty
consistently about shock cooling and to keep the cylinder temp change
under 50 degrees / minute but I don't find any consistent numbers on the
bottom end of the cylinder temperature operation range. Is 320
acceptable? I read about some pilots in cold regions running in the low
200's (mostly 4 cyl. Lycoming). That seems unreasonably low to me. Heck,
with the James cowl and plenum I am able to get to low 200's just by
opening the hangar door.

Sheesh, it was over priced in the first place IMHO. ADS-B data linked weather
can't happen fast enough. Seems a bit odd that they would increase their price
rather than decrease it when facing all of the potential alternatives. Then
again, maybe they are just trying to squeeze every last drop from subscribers
before phone apps and ADS-B kill their share.

Both XM and Sirius (now one big company) are hemorrhaging money

what surprises me is that they're still in business and running

Since the XM-Sirius merger, they have no competition within satellite radio. They
raised all their music rates, too. Of course they hid it - "rates" stayed the

I run my 200 hp Mooney around 290-320 ROP and maybe 20-30 cooler LOP
in Aridzona and points east to NJ. Have 600 hours on my rebuild to
date. Coolest cylinder may be around 270. I only see above 350 on a
hot day during climbout. For normally aspirated engines there really
is no such thing as shock cooling. You might get shock heating if you
apply takeoff power before getting engine temps up a bit.
