I like the flow and the small horizontal accent strip.

I believe it's around $510 new and if someone wants it for $450 shipped let me know.

I have that kit available for anyone who may be installing the Advanced AOA. This is the 'A Kit' which has wing ports, red & green tubing, 2 pushbutton switches, circuit breaker, DVD, installation manual and instructions. It does not contain the CPU, display or wiring. I don't know what the current price for the 'A Kit' is but I'd like to offer it to anyone, satisfaction guaranteed, for what you're willing to pay.

I assume these are tooling holes. This will probably warrant a phone call to Vans, but, does anybody have any thoughts (other than "don't mess with the wing spar any more than you need to!!!") about enlarging that hole to 7/16 for a snap bushing? I'm looking for a route for the pressure lines on my AOA. Aside from ordering a longer tubing length from AFS and running the tubing to the wingtip, then the full length of the wing through my conduit, I cannot see any easier way. I do already have my outboard leading edges installed, so this will be fairly difficult anyway. My only other thought is to just run both tubes through the hole and then gob proseal around them to keep them from rubbing. Anybody have any other general suggestions about the wing install part of this??? Pictures??? Using the stock location suggested on the AFS site, does anybody know how this will affect--if any--the install of the Duckworks leading edge landing lights in the same bay? Thanks again for any help, Bill ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 06:04:34 PM PST US From: "DLM" Subject: RV10-List: AP procedure Shortly after start, I apply power to my TT VSGV. The words AP OFF show on the screen. A friend indicated that he did not apply power to the TT until airborne; I suggested that was an unwise procedure because if inadvertently encountering IMC (dark night, low clouds or dark night and unlighted terrain) the AP can be used to maintain control of the aircraft. A touch of the round black knob will automatically synchronize the aircraft to the current heading by leveling wings and maintaining pitch attitude i.e. rate of climb. The TT AP has its own solid state pitch and roll sensors and the straight and level sensors are set at power up, preferably on the ground. My TT is my third way to keep the clean side up and dirty side down, after the Cheltons and the GRT Sport. ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 06:28:19 PM PST US From: Sean Stephens Subject: Re: RV10-List: AOA installation in wings Here's my installation. I routed the tubes out to the end then back to the fuselage. http://rv10.stephensville.com/2010/06/06/routing-aoa-tubes/ Also, the ports in no way conflict with the install of the Duckworks lights. They are plenty aft of the mount. -Sean #40303 (Still wiring panel) On 2/27/12 6:32 PM, Billy & Tami Britton wrote: > On the third bay in from the wingtip on the spar there's a hole in the > web.

The model and software version will be displayed for approximately ten seconds in the lower left. Then PWR UP in the lower right takes approximately another ten seconds. When initializing is complete PWR UP will change to AP OFF." The take-away is don't move the plane the until the AP reads AP OFF. Asking it to initialize in flight doesn't always give great results. I haven't timed it but my sense is that it doesn't really take 20 seconds for it to initialize. I put it early in the checklist so I'm doing other stuff anyway. --Dave Saylor On Mon, Feb 27, 2012 at 6:03 PM, DLM wrote: > Shortly after start, I apply power to my TT VSGV.

It is 5/16 OD and it runs down the "J" channels in the wing. You can push coax through with ease. I ran coax through it to keep it away from powered linesin the conduit. You could easily pull the AOA lines through this as well. It stays in place so you don't have to tack it in the channel. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sean Stephens" Sent: Monday, February 27, 2012 7:27 PM Subject: Re: RV10-List: AOA installation in wings > > Here's my installation.
