The Aeroled and Aveo position/strobe lights are completely self-contained.
There are no other external circuit board or power supplies.
You can get best pricing on the Aeroled unit through Van's. It was even
better than their show pricing at OSH.

Ok guys, so now I'm really confused
Certainly Jeffsrv-7a leds are impresive. No questions there.
I was of the opinion that the new type of LED strobes would eliminate
elctrical noise isues that the old strobes had. Or, is it a none issue??
Deems, I need to ask. Your coment on your site with regards to being "put
off by the "circuit boards and electronic components hanging out exposed",
does that apply to the Aveo and Aero Led systems?
Anyway all opinions/options are still welcome. Thx.

| Subject: | Lower cowling slot |
I would like to make a removable plate on the lower cowling to make it easier to
put on and take off. I was wondering if it's worth it for those of you who
have done it and if I should close the gap to the front gear leg or leave the
same amount of space for cooling. Was this space used for the equation for cooling?
Any pics out there for reference?
Thanks

| Subject: | Re: Lower cowling slot |
I've wondered if this slot allows in air opposing the cooling air coming down through
the engine. Especially in climb, the nose is at an upward angle to the
relative airflow, allowing the air to flow into the slot and oppose the engine
cooling air. I've wanted to measure the CHT difference before and after closing
the slot, but haven't yet....

| Subject: | Lower cowling slot |
I extended the slot forward several inches, installed nutplates along the sides
and then made an aluminum cover plate that essentially made the exposed part
of the slot the same as stock. No need to mess around to do anything but surface
mounting of the plate - it's only visible to those on their hands and knees
under the cowl. Idea came from Alex D. (RVTraining.com) who also did this on
his -10.

I did the same thing initially, it was to allow for ease of removal w/
3 bld prop.
http://deemsrv10.com/album/Sec%2047%20Spinner%20and%20Cowling/slides/DSC04249.html
(click forward for 8-9 pictures).
But when working on cooling issues I modified the original removable
plate to one which included louvers, in the hope that it would allow for
more exit air and better cooling.
http://deemsrv10.com/album/Phase1/slides/DSC07558.html (several pics)
As you can see from the pictures, I enclosed the slot with a cover aft
of the landing gear leg.
RESULTS : I can't say as any of this made a significant difference in
cooling.

I finally received my iPad mount from Ram Mounts. It is a good quality
and strong mount.
I used a sheet of aluminum and formed it around the tunnel to use as a
temporary bracket and to mount the iPad. Once flight testing t is
complete, I will most likely remove the extra aluminum bracket and
attach the mount with thru bolts to the tunnel cover.
I have pointed the iPad's charging port up under the panel; so that I
can get a 12V charger and connect it behind the panel to charge
continuously during flights.
Flight test, this weekend.

I just installed the first of two door catches I picked up from you at KOSH.
To recap, I have the IFLYRV10 flush door handles and lockks installed
already.
It is the flush handle cams that determine how far the door pins can move.
This appears to be about 110 degrees of handle turn. I also found that the
180 degree racks are not required /

Mouser,
If you haven't cut your Vans' handle racks yet you can just buy the 180 new
kit and try to get as much rotation from it as possible. The 180 new kit
and the 90 kit are the same price. The 180 retro is more because the extra
gear racks to replace the Vans' handle racks are included. I have sold 180
degree kits to builders with flush handle installations do I know they are
out there.
Feel free to call me. number on www.planearound.com.

This appears to be about 110 degrees of handle turn. I also found that the
180 degree racks are not required / or useful as the amount of rotation can
be accomodated by the standard racks. You gent a little extra length from
the racks by removing the pop rivet studs at the end of the door racks. They
are not necessary as the IFLYRV10 cam limits the amount of movement.

| Subject: | Door Attach Struts |
Hi
At KOSH I picked up a couple of door attach struts from Sean
(www.planearound.com). I did the retrofit recently and the hanger consensus
was they look far superior to the the steel brackets from Vans. The retrofit
only required a small adjustment to one hole that I didn't drill exactly
perpendicular when installing the original brackets.
They can be found at

I tried my new RAM mounts today as well, but mine are hanging from the
bracket over the glare shield. I like my position, but it does cover
up my view of GRT EIS display.
Sorry, no picture to post yet, but will do so later.
Rob's is nice, but I have another row of knobs below the throttle
area, plus I have a fire extinguisher mounted on top of the tunnel fwd
of Rob's mount plus a spring loaded access port in the top of the
tunnel where I can quickly and easily gut in a flex hose from the
extinguisher inside of the tunnel to discharge if needed.
