Subject: | Another RV-10 takes to the air. |
At about 4pm central standard time at KUES, kit #40496 flew to 4,200 feet for about
16 minutes. Everything worked and it flew great. #1 cylinder was a bit
hot on climb but settled down after leveling off.
Man did it feel good to bring the whole project to the final step. Thanks to everyone
on the list who provided me with information and help over the last 5
years. What a ride! See you at Oshkosh.

Nice. Congratulations! Probably a little adrenalin preventing immediate sleep.

Mega kuddos. A real sense of accomplishment. Now the real fun begins. Fly it often
and be careful. Pull that cowling and check carefully after each of your early
flights. Hint on the temp. Cut down the wind dam on the 2 front cylinders
- might help the temps. Had the same issue on the 1st couple of flights.
well done - Lets see those pics.......

Received my new Mattituck Red/Gold TMX IO-540, feels great but have some questions.
1) Wondering if there will be a problem with the angled oil filter adaptor
so close to the firewall, 2) I have a McCaulley prop governor I was going
to use on my RV6 but never did, is there any reason I can't use it on this 540
with Hartzell blended airfoil?
