G'day Rick
There are quite a few different options for cables and some do require
larger holes. My QB Fuselage already had the pilot holes drilled into the firewall
for the cables so I'm going with the Vans plans for the holes.
I have sent the cables supplied with the FF back and I will be using the VANS type
cables from Aircraft spruce but 3 inches longer than the original ones supplied
from Vans.
If you have a look at the Aircraft Spruce web page you will get some idea of the
different types available.
Phil, yes your right there were no firewall wear sleeves on Vans Cables.
What they say to do in the Plans is to put an SB500 inside a SB625 and then to
fill it with heat proof RTV.
cheers

Typically not. However there are a variety of devices available to protec
t the cables and to minimize co into the cabin that require different spacin
g if you choose to use them.

Subject: Fwd: RV10-List: iPad Mount update
I decided to relocate my iPad after my a flight test last weekend. I found
the previous location a little too distant for my taste. I think the most
ideal position is at eye level where John Miller has installed his.
Hopefully the Gizmo guys will come up with a panel mount and give those in
process of planning their panel another option.
I swapped the 2" standard clamp leg with a 6" long leg from Ram Mount (they
are great people to deal with) and I think that I like this arrangement
much better. The second picture shows the iPad in it's pilot-exit
configuration. Will post a flight test report this weekend.

I finally received my iPad mount from Ram Mounts. It is a good quality and
strong mount.
I used a sheet of aluminum and formed it around the tunnel to use as a
temporary bracket and to mount the iPad. Once flight testing t is
complete, I will most likely remove the extra aluminum bracket and attach
the mount with thru bolts to the tunnel cover.
I have pointed the iPad's charging port up under the panel; so that I can
get a 12V charger and connect it behind the panel to charge continuously
during flights.
Flight test, this weekend.
