    Hi Pascal That looks like a beautiful interior in your -10. One question on the infinity cable - how did you handle the cable at the bottom end if the control stick?

    Dont I wish!! That is Greg Hale's interior (http://nwacaptain.com/rv10_home.html) Just using as an example of how good it looks with the small boot and the stick painted. As far as the cable on the bottom, comes straight out into a service loop and held in place with a clamp on the landing gear bracket to allow for all the play the stick will need.

    Here are some picture of the stick covers I made for my sticks. I have the cable on the outside of the stick and these have a nice zipper in the front. I have made these for some other builders as well. They are very easy to put on.

    Subject: plane power alternator
    Mine stopped alternating on Saturday. After checking wiring and breakers to the alternator and checking the armature for magnetism. I checked the connector on the unit and found that at a low ohm setting, all pins showed open for the field. After a friend changed the setting for a larger resistance scale, the field pin read 500+ ohms so it was sent to the manufacturer. Before sending we did change the only part (regulator,diodes and brushes). That did not solve the problem. Another builder suggested a blast tube of cooling air and we constructed. After talking with Plane power that tube is not required. It is a Van's carryover recommendation from about 10 years ago. The new alternators have dual cooling fans and do not require blast tube cooling air. Will advise when they determine something. Part time is 375 hours between 4/2008 and 1/2011.

    Subject: Re: plane power alternator
    Our first one was purchased in 2007 and worked fine for about the same time. It started giving a false low-voltage warning, so we sent it in and it was replaced. It took a few phone calls but I don't think there was any charge. The one that failed had kind of an added-on looking box on the back. The newer ones are completely internally contained and look a lot better than the originals.
