A bit expensive but cheaper than buying seperate.

I used a lot of them on my wire runs along the fuselage, I like the kind that accepts the small zip ties. They are extraordinarily helpful on the wire runs - zero chafe and virtually weightless. You must scuff the site and clean it carefully. The stuff is expensive. I spent over $200 but worth every cent. If it is good enuf for Boeing and AirBus it is good enuf for me. -------- OSH '10 or Bust Q/B - testing phase 1 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=287912#287912 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 06:34:31 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Static Discharge Wicks From: "AirMike" I have been noticing some static in my radio (SL30) lately and I wonder if the lack of any static wicks (I had several on my C182) on the RV10 might contribute to radio interference. I would like to know if anyone on this blog has installed static wicks? If you put them on - where were they installed and how many? What their experience has been and which ones they purchased. Spruce wants $52, but an outfit called Sky Geeks wants only $13-15 for similar static wicks? Since I am getting close to paint time - I'd appreciate input. -------- OSH '10 or Bust Q/B - testing phase 1 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=287913#287913 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 06:59:33 PM PST US From: "Billy & Tami Britton" Subject: Re: RV10-List: Static Discharge Wicks The kit I bought second hand had static wicks installed on the elevator and I think theres one or two on the rudder also. As I'm sure you know, for the static wicks to work properly you need to bond the control surfaces to the rest of the airframe. At the point in the build where I took over I have not installed any more wicks--yet. I am bonding the control surfaces to the airframe though that way if I think I need static wicks--if and when the plane ever flies--I can easily install the wicks later.

The Dayton-Granger people have published a document showing where they recommend installing wicks for the RV-10. Here is a copy: http://mouser.org/projects/rv-10/dayton-granger-rv10.png They recommend two on each elevator, two on the rudder, and three on each wing. I bought one of the cheap wicks from skygeek but wasn't impressed with the quality, and went instead with the considerably more expensive (and very impressive build quality) DG16165 wicks (also from skygeek, $42 each, cheaper than spruce).
