| Subject: | PLEASE READ - List Fund Raiser Kickoff! |
Dear Listers,
Each November I hold a PBS-like fund raiser to support the continued operation
and upgrade of the List services at Matronics. It's solely through the Contributions
of List members that these Matronics Lists are possible. There is NO
advertising to support the Lists. You might have noticed the conspicuous lack
of flashing banners and annoying pop-ups on the Matronics Email List email messages
and web site pages including:
* Matronics List Forums http://forums.matronics.com
* Matronics List List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com
* Matronics List Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search
* Matronics List Browser http://www.matronics.com/listbrowse
You don't find advertising on any of these pages because I believe in a List experience
that is completely about the sport we all enjoy - namely Airplanes and
not about annoying advertisements.
During the month of November I will be sending out List messages every couple of
days reminding everyone that the Fund Raiser is underway. I ask for your patience
and understanding during the Fund Raiser and throughout these regular messages.
The Fund Raiser is only financial support mechanism I have to pay all
of the bills associated with running these Lists. Your personal Contribution
counts!
Once again, this year I've got a terrific line up of free gifts to go along with
the various Contribution levels. Most all of these gifts have been provided
by some of the vary members and vendors that you'll find on Matronics Lists and
have been either donated or provided at substantially discounted rates.
This year, these generous people include:
* Bob Nuckolls of the AeroElectric Connection http://www.aeroelectric.com
* Andy Gold of the Builder's Bookstore http://www.buildersbooks.com
* Jon Croke of HomebuiltHELP http://www.homebuilthelp.com
These are extremely generous guys and I encourage you to visit their respective
web sites. Each one offers a unique and very useful aviation-related product
line. I would like publicly to thank Bob, Andy, and Jon for their generous support
of the Lists again this year!!
You can make your List Contribution using any one of three secure methods including
using a credit card, PayPal, or by personal check. All three methods afford
you the opportunity to select one of this year's free gifts with a qualifying
Contribution amount!!
To make your Contribution, please visit the secure site below:

I would like to thank everyone in advance for their generous financial AND moral
support over the years!

I'm 6' 2" as well. I've not had a problem in any of the RV-10s that I've
flown in with an overhead console. I've flown with Aerosport Products,
Non-Stop Aviation, Accuracy Avionics, AirCrafters, and several custom built
overheads. I had plenty of room with all.

| Subject: | Re: Oil Pressure? |
What was your oil temperature. Oil pressure usually responds inversely
with oil temperature. If you were running it hard during your flight
and had high oil temperature, then the oil pressure might drop a little,
then possibly descending to pattern altitude cooled the oil some and
caused the pressure to come up. Just a thought.

| Subject: | Re: Airflow control on the Oil Cooler |
I'm torn in my mind as to whether it is necessary or not. Really, the
vernatherm in the engine should control the temperature of the oil to
what it needs to be by allowing or not allowing oil to go through the
cooler (just like the thermostat in your car). On very cold days in the
northern states, the small amount of oil that is allowed to go through
the cooler to keep the oil from congealing in the cooler might be enough
to keep the temperatures down, so blocking the airflow could likely
cause a difference there. Also, for the same reason, on cold days it
could allow you to get your oil temperatures up before takeoff so you
don't have to run so long on the ground. My main question is, what
happens if the cable becomes disconnected during flight, especially on a
warm day. If the valve is designed in a way that it will stay open,
then I wouldn't be concerned, but if it could possibly close or, even
worse, get jammed in the closed position, then I would be very careful
in making the decision whether or not to install it.

| Subject: | Airflow control on the Oil Cooler |
I have a butterfly oil cooler air valve in my 8A, and am putting one in the
10 as well. I found it very useful to get oil temps up to 180 in the
wintertime.
Jesse makes some good points. Some thoughts:
- As we know, the veratherm valve does not stop oil flow through
the cooler, it just opens a bypass for oil to go around the cooler as well
as through it. I found that on cold days there was still enough oil flow
through the cooler to keep temps well below 180 degrees.
- On the issue of the air valve sticking shut, I designed the
butterfly valve such that some air still got to the cooler even with the
valve fully shut. Another thought is if the valve sticks shut, you probably
had it shut because it was a cold day so you should be ok to make a
convenience landing someplace to fix it. In cruise on cold days with the
valve fully shut I get 180 degrees. I never had the valve stick (open or
shut).
- Oil pre-heat is a must on cold days. I have the electric strips
that bond to the sump that Van's sells. They work very well and I recommend
them. I plug them in an hour or two before takeoff, longer on really cold
days. DO NOT leave them plugged for prolonged periods as they will allow
the moisture driven off from the oil to condense on the cooler engine parts
higher up (e.g. cam shaft).

I made my butterfly valve easy to remove... so that is what I have done in
the past... remove it in the summer months.... also, I made the butterfly s
maller than the openning by 1/4" to 3/8" so that if it were to fall off the
shaft and lodge itself in the scat, there would still be airflow... the ol
e "ask me how I know" statement applies here.... when that did happenned, i
t was in the winter and the oil temps were perfect, so I didn't mess with i

uld never come loose again.

| Subject: | Plane Around... Door latch w/ flush handles question |
Has anyone else retrofitted their flush doors to use Plane Around latches?
My door have iflyrv flush door handles already installed... and working.
I'd like to incorporate Plane Around center latches to get the doors to positively close every time: http://www.planearound.com/
The attached photo shows the back side of the flush handle workings. The aft push
tube would appear to constrain extra throw as the linkage arm will limit its
movement.
That is, the total range of push tube motion will have to be the same - before
and after adding the Plane Around center latch mechanism. This would seem to rule
out use of the 180 degree retro kit.
What have others done here? Would a 90 degree motion of the Plane Around center
latch be sufficient?
Thanks,
Jay

Hi Jay
I have recently installed Sean's latches. I had bought retrofit racks hoping I
could use the extra throw. As it turns out, in my case at least, the Iflyrv10
latches are the limiting factor.
The 90 degree retrofit kit works quite well for me. 90 degrees gives the CAM a
log of grip on the door sill.

| Subject: | Overhead consoles and headliners |
While on the subject.
I would like to let everyone know that Aerosport Products will be taking
orders for
Our new fiberglass headliners within the next week. We have a few final
details to work out.
These headliners will be light weight fiberglass that you will need to
do
some simple trimming
And fitting to install. They are designed to be held in with Velcro,
rear
bulk head cover, front
Shoulder belt attach bolt and our interior side panels if you have but
not
necessary. It is designed
To be covered with automotive headliner material which comes in many
different colors. This is a thin foamed
Back material the wraps the fiberglass piece very easily. You could also
use
a material of your choice.
We will have a video on how to wrap your fiberglass parts once trimmed
to
fit. At this time this is designed
Just to cover from the back of the door back. See photos. You will not
need
to have a overhead console
To install. We will offer it as a one piece or 2 piece option for people
without overhead consoles. It also
Trims the window opening out very nice. This can be installed in flying
aircraft as well.
For more Information please contact Aerosport Products.

Does anyone have any advice or ideas on the best way to finish out the
inside of the canopy with a full length overhead console? I purchased
headliner material from Airtex, but haven't experimented with it yet. I
just see all the compound bends around the overhead console and see it
as
going to be tough. Painting sounds like the easiest way, but I think
I'd
like the soft feeling of cloth....
What have others done?

During this years annual it was discovered that the baffle rod that pushes
against the oil lines had worn a groove in two of them where the plastic bushing
moved.
Here are more pictures of it. Just a heads up to check during those oil
changes.
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?p=481129#post481129
Like I mentioned in the thread, I think this occurred in the last 50-100 hours
because I typically check this anytime the bottom cowling is off.
I still need to thank Sean for seeing this. I had not checked the left side of
the engine yet and he was helping change the oil and caught it. I would hope I
would have seen when I inspected the left side but it is always nice to have
another pair of eyes check stuff out.

| Subject: | Re: Oil Lines Worn |
You can minimize some of the problems on initial install by putting some goo
d bends in the rods to get them to not want to rub much or at all. Then, al
so get some RTV next to and on those nylon bushings and rub areas to keep th
ings where you want them. The rods are kind of a pain, but by a little pre-
work you may be able to minimize issues in the future.
Anything that can rub anything else is a potential problem, so use RTV to ho
ld things in place or prevent chafing. I've seen a spark plug wire rub most
of the way through an AN oil fitting nut before (on another plane not one I
owned), so even soft things can wear hard things.

| Subject: | Re: Oil Lines Worn |
Most enlightening.
I also found out something at the 160 hr point when I found oil inside
of the cowling.
Seems that new engines are prone to slowly begin leaking from the oil
pan gasket over time if not re-tightened frequently.
I had not re-tightened mine as they had torque putty on all of the
bolts.
The bolts did not loosen, the gasket actually weakened a bit over time.
Moral of the story here......just like Scott, when the cowl is off,
hand tighten each of these bolts (you can't get a torque wrench on
them0.
