    Subject: RV-10 Kit for sale
    From: "doctornigel" <nschultz3@cfl.rr.com>
    I am selling my RV-10 kit. I stumbled into a half lease of a Cirrus about six months ago and now the half owner wants to sell his half and I couldnt pass it up. My wife wants to fly rather than build. Whoever gets this will get a major jump start on their RV-10. I am 95% finished on the emp, all parts were aluma-preped, alodined, and epoxy primed except the skins which were spray primed. I have unpacked and inventoried the QB fuse, the QB wing I have unpacked and setup on a custom rolling dolly, the only work done is the pushrods and autopilot install. Included with the wing is the dolly, Trutrak autopilot servo, Dynon heated pitot/AOA, LED red/green position lights with HID mount, flap positioning kit, float sensors, static plumb kit. It is a real deal if you are close to me in East Central Florida and you can pick up. Included is also a hybrid of Brown and Avery tools to work on your new project including extras (ie C-frame dimpler with table, pneumatic rivet squeezer). I am selling it all for 39K and you pickup, you will be 10K and 400 hours ahead. I am not in financial stress to sell, Im a general dentist. If you want a great deal and want to fly your new RV-10 sooner, send me an email at nschultz3 at cfl.rr.com. do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=300103#300103

    Subject: 2010 OSH RV-10 HQ Camping
    Bill, The folks that run the RV parking area have a shuttle and are more than happy to drive folks with their camping gear to the RV-10HQ. With that said, I don=99t know when the shuttles start running. If the shuttle isn=99t running, just give somebody a call. All I can share at the moment, is that some folks have been very resourceful in providing transportation between the two areas. This camping guide is a good resource for first timers: http://www.upaero.com/oshkoshairshowcampingguide.pdf The first mass arrivals usually start after lunch on Saturday. Last year=99s cross wind made the arrival a little more entertaining than usual. bob From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Bill Gipson Sent: Saturday, June 05, 2010 10:31 AM Subject: RE: RV10-List: 2010 OSH RV-10 HQ Camping Bob, thanks for getting this together again this year.

    Lycoming, the manufacturer of the powerplant most builders select is the best source of said numbers to establish a baseline. The advantage is to determine if timing, wiring, spark or other issues are standing in the way of making adequate horsepower output which could jeopardize safe flight and certainly take-off. Each Builder of the RV-10 establishers their own numbers based on their extensive research before acquiring the coveted DAR or FAA Inspection Signoff. Choice of spark ignition systems, compression, internal components, fuel used and other issues can skew the use of one other builders choice. Personally, I would run the question passed Rhonda on what the Dyno tells her dad with the quality units that they provide. They are solid reference sources for magneto driven powerplants. Choice wisely.

    Subject: Comm Antennas
    Hi I am planning on installing two Comant CI-122 antennas tomorrow. My plan is to fab doublers and install the antennas / doublers just aft and inboard of the fuse steps. My reason for this is I have inspection panels in that area for the steps so it seems like a good choice. I am not keen on installing anything where access is a problem. Can anyone thing of reasons to not do what I plan? Are there better options for these antennas? Cheers Les #40643

    From: Kelly McMullen <apilot2@gmail.com>
    Les, That might be a good location for one antenna. Putting two antennas within about 2 ft of each other is not good. I'd consider either mounting one near an access panel on underside of wing or far enough back in the tail cone to have more than 3 ft separation between antennas. Alternatives include a Bob Archer wingtip Com antenna, an antenna on the top of the fuselage. The more separation you can get, the better. Of course you also need to consider separation from your ELT antenna and from GPS antenna.

    Subject: Comm Antennas
    Kelley Is 3 ft the magic number? If so, I might be okay. I'll measure tomorrow.

Putting two antennas within about 2 ft of each other is not good. I'd consider either mounting one near an access panel on underside of wing or far enough back in the tail cone to have more than 3 ft separation between antennas. Alternatives include a Bob Archer wingtip Com antenna, an antenna on the top of the fuselage. The more separation you can get, the better. Of course you also need to consider separation from your ELT antenna and from GPS antenna.

My plan is to fab doublers and install the antennas / doublers just aft and inboard of the fuse steps. My reason for this is I have inspection panels in that area for the steps so it seems like a good choice. I am not keen on installing anything where access is a problem. Can anyone thing of reasons to not do what I plan? Are there better options for these antennas?

    This is exactly the place where Deems installed his CI-122's. Flip through the folder: http://www.deemsrv10.com/album/Sec%2033%20Baggage%20Area/index.html Perhaps he can give a report.
