My cables seized up and made the quadrant levers very hard to move.
Try checking the archives--there should be part numbers and lenghts
for throttle, prop, and mixture cables. A few extra inches makes
routing a lot easier.
If you don't find them I can dig them up.

Has anyone purchased just a carpet kit for the RV-10? I'm looking for a nice,
drop in kit, something that will cover the tunnel (standard layout) and all floors
including the baggage area. Not just floor mats.
I know I can get carpet from Airtex and do it myself, but I was hoping to find
something alittle more drop in.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks. I already ordered extra length cables from Vans. I added 1.5 inches
to each. Prop cable is fine. I did confirm the problem in the cable. After
disconnecting the throttle lever it moved freely and smoothly. I then
disconnected injection system mechanism from the throttle cable and it moved
freely. The cables look fine but move with force and jerkily. I did notice
that the bracket which Vans supplies could be angled differently and
improve the connection. Vans indicated that their cables were Cablecraft but
given their price, it is more likely they are ACS out of Lake Havasu AZ
rather than the more expensive Tuthill Cablecraft cables for certified
aircraft. The Cablecraft cables last to engine TBO and longer. Given the
hassle to change the cables, it might be better to special order a set to
proper length direct from Cablecraft. Next time I will.

Talk with Luke Doughton luked@classic.aero at Classic Aero. They did the upholstery
and carpet on my RV-8 and I couldn't be more pleased. On the carpet for
the RV-8, I did spend a good deal of time laying out exactly what I wanted on
CAD, printing it on a plotter, adjusting the fit, then updating the CAD, etc.
But when I finished that process, I just emailed the CAD file to Luke, and he
converted it into a carpet that literally fits like a glove. I was very impressed.
Quality of the carpet is excellent and Luke makes sure it is fire treated
as well.

Best upholstery and carpet available for RV's in my opinion.

I will try and verify on Monday the source of Vans quadrant control cables.
They are the correct color for Cablecraft low friction but the ACS website
does not show their cables. Anyway the throttle and mixture lengths for the
Vans cable set need to be increased 1.5-2 inches for better routing options
and fit.

Hey Matt,
That was my first place to look as I bought my seats there years ago.
But no dice.

We don't offer products for the RV-10 at this time. The main reason for
this is that we have decided to continue to focus on our current
products. We plan to further refine and then expand the items that we
make for the RV-7, RV-8, and RV-9.

Try plane plastics. They used my plane to create the pattern and their carpet quality
is decent.
Sorry, don't have website but they do vacuum formed instrument panel replacements
and ate located in Oklahoma. They also attend sun fun.
Do not archive.

I'm not sure what Vans is charging today, but I ordered special length cables from
Vans for my quadrant setup -- all longer than what he shows in the catalog
-- and each cable was $75.00, didn't matter the length. The cables were made
to the exact length I requested.

For those who are flying a G900X panel,
How does the system calculate "TTL Time in Service?" I called Garmin and the guy
I spoke with told me he would get and answer and call me back, two days ago.
It is not from engine start to shut down.
