    2 to 3 days is bull. Try 2 to 3 months. I'm retired and I was out there every day. The most I could stand was about 4 to 5 hours of sanding & filling. John -------- #40572 Phase One complete and flying. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=386892#386892

    Subject: Re: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim
    Lynn, Some of this post just gets too out of whack. First, an EFIS isn't that hard to wire. I think most would be almost easier than dealing with some of the things on a 6-pack, like vacuum pumps and lines and additional static/pitot lines. The world isn't a 6-pack panel world anymore, so no use lamenting it...the new stuff CAN be smaller, lighter, and simpler. But where you really go off into the weeds is with the last paragraph. You start talking about how much of a pain in the rear it was to put in trim, and then went on to describe building microcontrollers and how much time that all adds to the build. Well, I'm here to tell you that for MOST people, it's not going to be that tough. First, you can install Geoff's system quickly (I have no first hand experience), from the sounds of it. Second, for people like me who'd prefer an electronic, adjustable tab of some type, you can use standard ray allen components and get the job done very quick. I added rudder trim in one evening, to a flying plane. No need to build special controllers, and certainly it wouldn't even add a week to a person's build time. So you make it sound much more painful than it is. But where you really lose it is this line: "At this stage in the build my recommendations would be to build the airplane stock and deal with the idiosyncrasies when it's flying." You know, there's nothing wrong with going stock, but, for a NON-FLYING builder to make statements like that, you should definitely DEFINITELY qualify that statement clearly to the list....you're someone who HAS NOT THE EXPERIENCE of flying such a creation for any sizeable amount of time, yet you're saying they'd be better off dealing with the idiosyncrasies later? I mean, it's fine to have an opinion and comment, but definitely qualify that statement with "I'm not a flying builder", so at least people know to take the opinion with a grain of salt. Once you've flown it for a while, many of these opinions will become much more valuable. My personal feelings on trim: Aileron trim - You need it, really. Yes, I buy into the KISS principle, but if you're going to hand fly at all, you'll find Aileron trim a necessity in the 10...much more so than any other plane I'd flown in the past. Elevator trim - Not much to say here except I think everyone should have speed control and I personally believe Bob's Safety-Trim or similar featured device should be mandatory install. Rudder trim - This one could well be optional, but I'm much happier in my 615 hours AFTER installing rudder trim than I was in my 288 hours BEFORE installing it. No, I don't adjust it every flight. Maybe not even every 2nd flight. But, if you vary flight loads and airspeeds in cruise and you cruise >500 miles a day, it's likely to be something that people will like. Definitely not a necessity, and a trim wedge or bendable tab would do for many people I'm sure. But, it is a nice option for people flying X/C. On a side note, I'm planning to build an RV-14 hopefully starting soon, and when I build that, I will possibly leave rudder trim OFF of that one. Mainly because I don't want to mess with a control surface too much that I plan to use for some aerobatics. But, I may still add it. If I were building a -10 again, I'd add it for sure...likely do the same as I have, but may consider a notched tab into the rudder. What I have is about as simple as it gets if you have an electric rudder trim though. If I were more of a spring trim guy, I'd go for Geoff's system.

    Tim, thanks for your comments. I'm not as eloquent as you are. I apologize for giving you the wrong impression. My comments were aimed at the increased build time whenever you deviate from the plans. The decisions I made have stretched out my build time significantly. That's not to say I wouldn't do it again. I'm trying to build light ..... and fast .... and safe .... as I can. I wanted to convey what happens when you deviate from stock, and the impact it's had on /_my_/ build time. I am frustrated right now, but I've been here before. I am a repeat offender. Ah, good to get that off my chest!!! I had a little knowledge of other trim systems. Here's one solution http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=23591 and one from Aerosport http://www.aerosportproducts.com/ruddertrim.htm. I consider the first a lot of work, and the second far simpler if you like bungee trim. My experience with bungee trim hasn't been perfect. That's what drove me to the model airplane servo solution. First it was just aileron trim, but as long as I had to make the controller, I might as well add rudder trim ..... and now I'm thinking of a controllable camera mount ..... and the build time gets longer and longer. Linn ..... wiring .... not flying .... and terribly jealous of those that are!!!!

    Subject: Re: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim
    I should state I went about 100 hours without rudder trim. I waited for Geoff (Aerosport Products) to make his rudder trim for the RV-10. After installing it I have used it a lot and really like it for long climb outs or slow descents. Mostly just to have my right foot on the ground. A great by product was the springs holding the rudder from banging around in the wind. Before the trim I used to hurry and stick in the rudder pedal gust lock but now I really don't have to at all unless the wind is 15+. ----- Original Message ----- From: Linn To: rv10-list@matronics.com Sent: Monday, November 05, 2012 8:22 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim Tim, thanks for your comments.

    Subject: Re: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim
    Hey Lynn, No prob. I do get the point that mods add time. I wasn't happy to have to be one of the early people to deal with the fuel lines/valve install and things like that, without may people's examples to look at. That VAF link you sent is basically my (actuall Vic S's) rudder trim. It took me one night to cut the hole and add the doubler and servo. I guess add another evening for getting the parts painted and ready. But, it was pretty easy. It wasn't super cheap just because I bought the Ray Allen parts, but otherwise was not at all complicated and works really well at least, so the reward paid off. I think for many things, building per-plans is the best way to go. There are a handful of things though where I'm pretty glad I deviated. I was flying in something like 1700 hours, and probably could have in 1500-1600 if I hadn't deviated at all. But I'm much happier with my end result. :) Happy building!

    Subject: Re: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim
    I respect Tim so I=99ll respond here from my perspective. Been flying for a year- 109 flight hours; just did my conditional inspection. After 1 year of flying I=99ll state the following. The Stock is fine but it sure lacks numerous required upgrades however. I was blessed to have met Don McDonald during my build, a real guru with parts, he made numerous parts, that (may) still be sold via plane innovations. He built them for himself without regard for profit. Example are the gear wheel pant extensions, rock solid and well worth that investment. I have the Aileron trim, I have not used it much but good to have if I need it, when I have it. I have the trim tab, works fine for me, no regrets having the electronic version. I upgraded the front gear axle and wheel, no regrets, sprayed a ceramic (truck liner) in the cabin, supposed to minimize noise and temperature control-and painted not needed with good ANR hedsets- would skip that. Otherwise I am pretty much stock and after a year of =9Cbreak-in=9D the plane has held up solid and flew very nicely. I think Tim has the list of items to get for upgrading. If one uses that list they will be a great shape. I am not one for adding more and changing the plane unnecessarily. I think after 1 year of fine tuning and constant calls to poor Don, the plane is complete and I have no regrets of wishing I had added more or I wasted too much time upgrading something. I think if one gets what is required and wants to do it inexpensively, it can be done, stock works but not as well as if it was/is upgraded with better parts and options, just don=99t spend too much time on forums and getting the latest upgrade. To be blunt there are still some out there building that were building before I ever got started- and that means 1 year researching the RV-10 before I did that first rivet. I have a day job, I got an average of 2-3 hours in each day and a complete day on the weekends for 4.5 years, minimal help. If it is something that can be done later and there is doubt, move on. I hate to see projects sitting around for years, especially those that have avionics, like computers they may be obsolete by the time you get the plane flying. I have a skyview and it was released right when I was building the panel. I needed to send some items back but fortunately I got in right about 1 year after it was released, it remains being updated and Dynon has been great in support, but if even if I was not flying the plane THAT too would eventually get replaced, Vertical Power doesn=99t make the VP-200, a real shame since that has proven to be well worth the investment I made, in that case having something old paid off.. It can be done but don=99t get lost doing everything out there. Tim is a book of knowledge, he knows what he is saying, Linn is right too. Get the plane flying, if in doubt about something, find a RV-10 somewhere, maybe a flyin and fly the plane to see if you need that gizmo. If there is someone in SoCal, contact me, love to get you out and answer any questions. Pascal From: Linn Sent: Monday, November 05, 2012 7:22 AM Subject: Re: RV10-List: RE: RV-10 Rudder trim Tim, thanks for your comments. I'm not as eloquent as you are. I apologize for giving you the wrong impression. My comments were aimed at the increased build time whenever you deviate from the plans. The decisions I made have stretched out my build time significantly. That's not to say I wouldn't do it again. I'm trying to build light ..... and fast .... and safe .... as I can. I wanted to convey what happens when you deviate from stock, and the impact it's had on my build time. I am frustrated right now, but I've been here before. I am a repeat offender. Ah, good to get that off my chest!!! I had a little knowledge of other trim systems. Here's one solution http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=23591 and one from Aerosport http://www.aerosportproducts.com/ruddertrim.htm. I consider the first a lot of work, and the second far simpler if you like bungee trim. My experience with bungee trim hasn't been perfect. That's what drove me to the model airplane servo solution. First it was just aileron trim, but as long as I had to make the controller, I might as well add rudder trim ..... and now I'm thinking of a controllable camera mount ..... and the build time gets longer and longer. Linn ..... wiring .... not flying .... and terribly jealous of those that are!!!! On 11/5/2012 9:29 AM, Tim Olson wrote: Lynn, Some of this post just gets too out of whack. First, an EFIS isn't that hard to wire. I think most would be almost easier than dealing with some of the things on a 6-pack, like vacuum pumps and lines and additional static/pitot lines. The world isn't a 6-pack panel world anymore, so no use lamenting it...the new stuff CAN be smaller, lighter, and simpler. But where you really go off into the weeds is with the last paragraph. You start talking about how much of a pain in the rear it was to put in trim, and then went on to describe building microcontrollers and how much time that all adds to the build. Well, I'm here to tell you that for MOST people, it's not going to be that tough. First, you can install Geoff's system quickly (I have no first hand experience), from the sounds of it. Second, for people like me who'd prefer an electronic, adjustable tab of some type, you can use standard ray allen components and get the job done very quick. I added rudder trim in one evening, to a flying plane. No need to build special controllers, and certainly it wouldn't even add a week to a person's build time. So you make it sound much more painful than it is. But where you really lose it is this line: "At this stage in the build my recommendations would be to build the airplane stock and deal with the idiosyncrasies when it's flying." You know, there's nothing wrong with going stock, but, for a NON-FLYING builder to make statements like that, you should definitely DEFINITELY qualify that statement clearly to the list....you're someone who HAS NOT THE EXPERIENCE of flying such a creation for any sizeable amount of time, yet you're saying they'd be better off dealing with the idiosyncrasies later? I mean, it's fine to have an opinion and comment, but definitely qualify that statement with "I'm not a flying builder", so at least people know to take the opinion with a grain of salt. Once you've flown it for a while, many of these opinions will become much more valuable. My personal feelings on trim: Aileron trim - You need it, really. Yes, I buy into the KISS principle, but if you're going to hand fly at all, you'll find Aileron trim a necessity in the 10...much more so than any other plane I'd flown in the past. Elevator trim - Not much to say here except I think everyone should have speed control and I personally believe Bob's Safety-Trim or similar featured device should be mandatory install. Rudder trim - This one could well be optional, but I'm much happier in my 615 hours AFTER installing rudder trim than I was in my 288 hours BEFORE installing it. No, I don't adjust it every flight. Maybe not even every 2nd flight. But, if you vary flight loads and airspeeds in cruise and you cruise >500 miles a day, it's likely to be something that people will like. Definitely not a necessity, and a trim wedge or bendable tab would do for many people I'm sure. But, it is a nice option for people flying X/C. On a side note, I'm planning to build an RV-14 hopefully starting soon, and when I build that, I will possibly leave rudder trim OFF of that one. Mainly because I don't want to mess with a control surface too much that I plan to use for some aerobatics. But, I may still add it. If I were building a -10 again, I'd add it for sure...likely do the same as I have, but may consider a notched tab into the rudder. What I have is about as simple as it gets if you have an electric rudder trim though. If I were more of a spring trim guy, I'd go for Geoff's system. Tim On 11/4/2012 7:36 AM, Linn wrote: Hi Carlos.

The topic was talking about the interior of the cabin cover, not necessarily the doors and the exterior. Which I admit does take a significantly greater amount of time. There is also a difference if you have a green versus a pink top. I don't think there are too many green tops still left in circulation, so that is good news. I can tell you that I did finish the interior work on my cabin cover in under forty hours of effort. Additionally, I finished almost the entire interior, since it was my cabin cover that Geoff used as a mold for his headliners. It was glass smooth in preparation for making his molds. With that said, I did have the proper tools, work environment, and mentoring. I did this at Geoff's shop and used his equipment. I suspect if I was doing this at home, without his guidance, it would have added another ten to twenty hours. For example, I found that sanding screens were more effective that standard sandpaper. They are more expensive, but allow you to get more work accomplished in a set amount of time. I also used a polyester filler instead of micro and epoxy, since these were more cosmetic changes and not structural. Remember the class that we attended at Dave Saylor's facility? We both learned some short cuts on trimming the cabin cover. Those tips probably saved me a few days of frustration with making the initial trim cuts. Now we won't talk about the weeks I put into the doors and the sides of the cabin cover that were sanded flat by Van's that I had to rebuild back to follow the door contour. That was a royal pain in the rear end. To summarize, those with experience are going to be more proficient. While those of us newbies are going to take longer unless we get somebody to mentor us and show us all their tricks of the trade. Your already flying, so my advice isn't directed towards you. But if you're just starting building, try to hook up with somebody that has gone before you and learn from their experience. I'm five years into my build and about ready to fly and I'm still learning new things daily. bob -------- Bob Leffler N410BL - FWF RV-10 #40684 http://mykitlog.com/rleffler Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=386921#386921

    Let me clarify my statement again. I am talking about just prepping the inside of the cabin top For final paint. Not installing overhead consoles attaching doors, putting light wiring in, GPS Antennas ETC. Just finishing the inside of the cabin top. To before final paint or primer stage. This is also If you use a spray able body filler. Also the green tops are way worse than the pink tops. Using a DA sander with a screen type paper As Bob mentioned makes a big difference.

    OK, I'm green with envy!!! I used a 4" angle grinder where they glopped (scientific term) the FG in places inside my green top and to shape the door openings. I plan on using a light color Zolatone to finish the inside and will concentrate on a good paint base on the outside..

    Subject: Re: aileron trim
    It was a break through moment for my training at the time (1970). I tried to do it with my Maule but could never quite pull it off. Way too much coupling of engine power and pitch (my description). I have 2 axis trim. You'll love the electric pitch trim - definitely have a hat button on your stick. You'll barely if ever use the aileron trim but it's a good way to set a neutral point for your flying. I half installed a spring based rudder trim system anticipating the need for it. It will never go in. In cruise I find the rudder system just sticky enough to hold enough right rudder to center the ball. Plus I've never been comfortable with both feet on the floor all the time - too much Maule time I guess. I generally cruise with my right toe on the pedal. I included TCW's Safety Trim 2 axis controller. It is designed to prevent overruns and to provide a means of recovery from such an overrun. The feature that is on all the time limits trim operation to 3 seconds at a time. I find that very handy for calibrating the amount of trim I want to apply. For example, before takeoff, (2) 3 second runs of down trim give me an acceptable trim position for a home field takeoff with flaps. I have position indicators setup on my GRTs but they are not consistently accurate so the 3 second runs are very handy for gross trim adjustments. Plus with hat switches on both sticks, an errant hand, arm, foot can't put the aircraft out of control. And you'll definitely want your AP (assuming you are putting one in) to control your pitch trim. The TruTrak operation of the elevator trim is seamless and accurate. But of course, we all like what we installed in the plane and don't need the features we didn't install....

    Subject: Re: Opinion please
    I wish I had known about the Duratec product (a polyester grey surfacing primer). The stuff works like I wished the epoxy based Dupont product I used would work. I didn't use it on anything until after I finished. The workability of the Duratec product makes all this work MUCH easier and productive.

Once you work out the real bad spots and sand spray a good heavy coat on the entire inside of the cabin top. Block it out almost back to the raw fiber glass and do it one more time.

    Hey Tim I was planning to install a rudder trim on the 14 just like I did on the 10, til I read your previous post. I hadn't thought of the aerobatic part. I will cancel that thought , Thanks Ron Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=386978#386978

    Hey Bill/Geoff, I'm always open to new stuff ... never heard of Duratec. I googled it, is it DURA-707G? They have all kinds of products. I've used the Dupont/Nason 2K epoxy primer for many years, so I'm comfortable with the way it fills, sands AND bonds with the finish coat. I don't want to be the first one to put a new product under automotive paint only to find out later that it doesn't adhere. I essentially agree with the primer war conclusions: use the primer that the finish coat recommends. Later, - Lew "looking for more specifics" Gallagher

    I'm not considering it a 100% done deal yet...I may add it, but, I don't think it's 100% needed, and it does take one thing out of the mix that could go wrong on an aerobatic plane. So, I'm not sure. Tim On 11/5/2012 6:40 PM, Ron B. wrote: > > Hey Tim > I was planning to install a rudder trim on the 14 just like I did on the 10, til I read your previous post.

    Lew it is not a primer but a sprayable filler. You still need to put a primer coat on. Never had a problem with it and have used it for years.

They have all kinds of products. I've used the Dupont/Nason 2K epoxy primer for many years, so I'm comfortable with the way it fills, sands AND bonds with the finish coat. I don't want to be the first one to put a new product under automotive paint only to find out later that it doesn't adhere. I essentially agree with the primer war conclusions: use the primer that the finish coat recommends. > > Later, - Lew "looking for more specifics" Gallagher > > > > > > >

    > Remember the class that we attended at Dave Saylor's facility? We both learned some short cuts on trimming the cabin cover. Those tips probably saved me a few days of frustration with making the initial trim cuts. > Bob, Yes I do. Probably the best learning experience I ever had as far as the RV building process. But, telling somebody that it only takes 2 to three days to do the doors/canopy - or any part of it - is a joke. Going back, my experience with you guys and Dave Saylor, was probably the thing that made it work for me. The metal on the RV-10 is pretty easy and straight forward, the fiberglass on the other hand, is a big issue. Without that class, I would have been lost. I didn't have any assistance with the 'glass. I only had the experience of Dave's class and the school of hard knocks. All I'm saying is that this "easy to do" advice comes a little too easy. John -------- #40572 Phase One complete and flying.
