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.

From: "AirMike" 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....... -------- See you OSH '11 Q/B - flying 1 yr+ Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=333591#333591 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 09:43:34 PM PST US Subject: RV10-List: Received new engine, questions From: "rvdave" 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? -------- Dave Ford RV6 flying RV10 building Cadillac, MI Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=333593#333593 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/oil_filter_adaptor_189.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rv10-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RV10-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rv10-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rv10-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
