Subject: | Finger strainer screens |
Should I pro-seal in the finger strainer screens in the fuel tanks or
use some other thread sealing compound? I'm not using the pro seal on
the drain sumps in the bottom of the wings simply because I can get to
them without removing the wings. What kind of thread sealing compound
is anyone using??
Thanks,
Bill

Just use a standard thread sealing compound like White Seal or
Bakerseal. Proseal would make them pretty difficult to ever remove.
There's not much risk of them backing out.

Parker TiteSeal is about as good as it gets. Of course the smallest
quantity you can get is enough for 500 RV-10s.

Subject: | Comm antenna placement |
For logistical reasons I would love to run my two comm antennae under the center
box basically between the gear legs 36" apart. Anyone had any issues with a
similar installation?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Sean. I am able to get in, but it is painfully slow. Must be
something on my end.

I would wonder where you would put your transponder antenna if you put
the com antennas that far forward. You need similar distance spacing
for the transponder antenna. The transponder should have RG400 cable,
while the coms will be fine with RG58, so it would seem cheaper to
make longer runs with RG58 and keep the transponder antenna fairly
close to the instrument panel.
I think most RV-10s I have seen have placed com antenna(s) under rear
seats or baggage compartment.

The xponder is already in behind the baggage compartment which complicates spacing.
Below the rear seats or baggage means ripping up floors which I was hoping
to avoid. I thought of running the antenna aft but it would mean sharing conduit
with the SkyView network cable which they don't recommend. The easiest point
of access is the open cross section between the gear legs, but my fear is
shadowing from the wings on the ground.

Check out Deems site. That's what he did and I think he has been happy with the
results. At least he was the last time it was discussed.

I wouldn't worry about wing shadowing. I have a bent whip in about the
same location on my Mooney and it works fine on ground and in air. I
suppose it might be possible, but you normally aren't needing a range
much over 5 miles for ground transmissions.
