    Subject: Engine order blues government bureaucracy causes price
    increase! I would not be interested in the Somali engines as I already purchased mine back when the dollar was worth more. Perhaps the bureaucrats in the PRC could help builders with the alternative engine to be supplied by the Canadian company who collected funds and never delivered. Or perhaps the US company who sold an alternative with "special" parts that has left that business to supply another alternative.

Yah, I hear there are some good new lycomings for sale in Somalia and they are really cheap.

    Subject: Re: Whelen System 6 (???) For Sale
    I have interest in the tail strobe and power supply. Anyone interested in the position lights or wiring kit? Bill From: Billy & Tami Britton Sent: Tuesday, November 29, 2011 3:53 PM Subject: RV10-List: Whelen System 6 (???) For Sale I have decided to go with LED's in my RV-10 so I've decided to sell the Whelen setup that came with the kit when I bought it. I believe it is what they called a "System 6". However, I stand corrected if I'm wrong. It consists of a Model HDACF Power Supply, Model A500A-V-14 tail strobe, Model A650-PR-14V red position light and a Model A650-PG-14V green position light. Also has the Whelen 60' 3-wire shielded wire kit with connectors to connect the lights to the power supply. I have everything that came with the original setup. None of it has ever been used, in fact it's only been out of the boxes a couple times. Selling as new. All parts are marked "9/03" so I assume they were assembled/manufactured in September '03. Pricing is questionable. Checking Spruce, pricing is as follows: Whelen HD60 Installation Package---$77.50 Whelen A650PG14 Tip Strobe---$218.95 Whelen A650PR14 Tip Strobe---$219.95 Whelen A500AV14 Tail Pos. Strobe---$158.95 Whelen HDACF 14/28V $393.95 Adding all of these up comes to a total of $1069.30. Considering age, I think 75% of new should be fair to start. Therefore, I'd like $800 even and I'll ship priority mail to the 48 states insured for $800. Shipping outside of the 48 states will be actual shipping. Pictures are available upon request. Just drop me an e-mail at william@gbta.net or text me at 6205464942. Thanks, Bill

    Bill, that may be a tough split, as mechanically the tail strobe and tail nav light are one unit. Also the one power supply powers both the tail and the wingtip strobes. -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=359916#359916

    Yeah, we'll see how it works out. I've got one guy that wants the power supply and another that wants the tail strobe. I won't get rid of any of it until all parts (with the exception of the wiring kit) are spoken for though.

    I'm still awaiting my ADS-600B unit. Sent my ADS-600 unit for upgrade back in September. I did get a reply from Bill Moffitt yesterday that "they are trying to get the latest software into all units prior to shipment." He gave me the option for them to ship it now, but if they did, "I would have to return it before it will support an future software upgrades, new features, etc." I opted to wait.

    Subject: Budd Davisson's RV10 article in Sport Aviation
    Is it my imagination or are most of the speeds and feeds stated in the article BS. Flap extension speed = 115 knots 22" & 2300 producing 160 to 165 knots indicated, true even higher Target speed on final = 98 knots Seems like an old school factory ride where none of the numbers can be believed. Or is just as simple as scrambling mph and knots (which again, is how old school reviews were done). Bill

    According to Bill Moffit, one of the planned software upgrades is to give GPS output. I want to use this to drive my ELT. Hopefully, it will come with this software upgrade. Given that we already have to enter a number of software commands into the ADS-600B for setup and ID purposes, I don't understand why Navworx doesn't make the software available for online downloading as opposed to requiring the unit to be sent back in.

    First off I believe the demo plane(s) are MPH so believe everything as MPH, those flying and have done the transition training in Tx, know that Alex teaches the Vans way 90-95 MPH on final. I floated at that speed, at 98 knots I call that a "fly-by". As far as flaps I believe the flap speed is 100knots per Alex so that would be 115 MPH. Yes, I thought it was a great marketing article. I can tell you that at 5500 MSl 22/2300 I saw 159 TAS/ 140 indicated or 161 MPH. So I conclude it is MPH not Knots. That would be about right in that case.

    I noticed the numbers being all over the place too, very odd. With Mike Seager I was taught 85-90 mph from initial to base and to final. I usually preferred the 85 mph on relatively calm day, stay at 9o mph if windy. We used 100 mph for Vfe. At 23" and 2400 I think we would see about 165 Mph IAS. -Chris N919AR -----Original Message----- From: owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Pascal Sent: Wednesday, November 30, 2011 6:41 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: Budd Davisson's RV10 article in Sport Aviation First off I believe the demo plane(s) are MPH so believe everything as MPH, those flying and have done the transition training in Tx, know that Alex teaches the Vans way 90-95 MPH on final.

    Yes, it looks like a lot of confusion over mph and knots, though the confusion isn't even consistent. So much of what we do is about precision. One of the reasons so many of us are here with the RV line is the refreshing veracity of Van's performance quotes. I'm sure they're not looking for marketing hype of this kind.

    I too assumed the numbers must be MPH. Also, the "flap speed" mentioned is only for the first two notches. Vans recommends something slower (87 KIAS as I recall) for full flaps. -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=359950#359950

    Wow. 1.3 Vso if you believe Van's advertised numbers is 82mph at gross wt of 2700. I could see 85mph on final decreasing to 80 over the fence. Most folks are going to make the majority of their landings at least 100-200lbs below gross, which would indicate even lower numbers. Of course if less flaps are used, speeds would have to go up. I'd have to believe that Van's landing distance numbers are achieved with lower speeds.

    Kelly, I'd guess most cfi's will recommend a somewhat high approach speed, especially for new comers to the plane, because, compared to a typical Cessna, it is much easier to inadvertently apply a little back pressure on final. And if you do, especially with full flaps, the plane loses speed rapidly. I'd say it works out well with a nice gentle round out, because then your over-the-fence speed ends up being quite a bit lower. -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=359957#359957

    Subject: Moving Door Pin Holes
    From: Phillip Perry <philperry9@gmail.com>
    Has anyone had success moving their door pin holes? I drilled one of mine earlier and after all was said and done, the aft hole for the door shifted inboard about 1/16". I'd really like the door to sit as close to flush as possible so I don't make any additional work for myself. As it stands right now, I'd have to add quite a bit of filler to build-up the door and that would be enough to cover the tops of the screws holding the plastic pin guides in the door. My thought is to go ahead and oval the hole in the bulk head enough to bring the door flush, then rivet a doubler plate with the properly sized 7/16" hole on the backside of the oval. Of course it would be the same thickness as bulkhead. - Has anyone done this successfully? - Are there any other techniques out there that I haven't thought of? - I'm assuming the door pin holes must be a tight fit (minimal slop) and that slightly enlarging the hole (without the doubler idea) is a bad idea? Thanks, Phil

    Slow to flap speed upon entering the pattern; 120 KIAS remove reflex; <100 KIAS 0-15 degrees; about 85 KIAS for flap >15 degrees. I use 65-70 KIAS 50-100% flaps on short final; 65 KIAS if two aboard; 70 KIAS if four aboard over the numbers. Easy turnoff at 2500 feet without braking; easy turnoff at 1200 feet with moderate braking. If you plan to use strips < 1000 feet, you may want to practice technique.

    Phil, If I understand your question, you're talking about the holes in the fuselage, right? If so you could substitute the plastic guide blocks for a set of our aluminum guide blocks and just mount the blocks in the desired position. I'd highly recommend changing out the plastic blocks for any of the metal guides that are available. Ours are pretty inexpensive and are dimensionally the same as the plastic blocks.
