    Subject: Re: Brain trust stick wiring poll
    While usually Robin and I are on the same page, here I differ a bit. I think too much is made of the rotating of the grip. Yeah, you will want it rotated slightly, but I don't think any major rotation is warranted. I would probably be more likely to recommend AGAINST going very far in rotation and here's why... When flying the RV-10, even during landing, I rarely use more than 2 or 3 fingertips on the stick....LITERALLY. You just give it gentle nudges with 1 or 2 fingers and it does what you want. Honestly I never ever have the need to grab the grip with a full hand on most flights. You could throw an mis-shapen blob of rocks on the end of the stick and I could fly with it, because gripping it is just not something you would do for hours on end. Your forearm rests on your legs and it's very comfortable to fly. I could fly with it cockeyed by 40 degrees, 90 degrees, or 180 degrees. But, when the rubber meets the road, and you DO need to grip it hard, that's likely going to be during a time of trouble....some time when you're going to actually exert yourself to push or pull or yank and bank like during some event or bad turbulence. At that point I would recommend that the yoke be rotated in the direction that gives you the most arm "solid" control ability. Sit at your desk right now, and try to push yourself back from your desk with your fist, and see what position your arm wants to be in. Mine certainly doesn't have full strength at 40 degrees offset. In fact, it's probably not many degrees off straight...maybe 5-10 at most. So my position on it is basically....rotate the grip so that if you needed to do a hard push to override an autopilot or break a stall or perform a hard maneuver, you could do it with a locked wrist and be comfortable. And, beyond that, don't worry about it much because if you're giving the stick your full grip during normal maneuvers you're probably trying too hard...it's a plane that can be flown with fingertips and trim alone. As Dave Mason sung years ago..... "We just disagree", Robin. :) No worries though....this one falls into that "do whatever you wish" category as far as I'm concerned. I'm just providing the counterpoint. Tim On 7/21/2013 4:58 PM, Robin Marks wrote: > > Inside. In fact even if I had a stick boot (which I never will) I would run them inside.

I see so many installs that have the grip facing straight forward. I strongly suggest you sit in your seat properly located forward & aft to see what angle your stick hand lands on the stick. Put the grip in our hand un-mounted or over the stick to see what feels best. Close your eyes and drop your hand into position. Do it several times. You will notice the ideal orientation has significant rotation from directly forward. Mine was about a 40 Degree rotation. No way would straight forward be comfortable for long hand flying. Even worse on takeoff when you often have to flick the trim several times, flip the Flaps Up toggle and push the flip/flop not having the correct & natural orientation on the grip makes for something less than ideal button orientation as well as a less natural placement in your hand. Just something to consider. > > Robin >

    I tried to strike a reasonable balance between beauty and function. Actually I just got lazy. Tosten grips and external wire run without a boot. Looks utilitarian but neat to my eyes. No regrets until this thread. I chose the Tosten grip because the Infinity had 1 or two more functions than I could see using. I also liked the rotating ability because the most comfortable position is far from straight ahead as someone else has noted. Rotating is even better and the Tosten does that very well. After 2 years of flying I use the mic button and trim hat all the time. But since the AP is normally connected, I use the the AP disco 100% and the Transponder ident 50% of the time. Don't use the flip flop at all. Can't think of another function I would actually use if on the stick.

    I found some nice indoor/outdoor carpet in the aviation section at Lowes. This is about 1/8" think with a rubber back.

    Just remember that it will need to be renewed 3 years from now (July) not 3 years from when you get your A/W certificate. Here in CA tax is assessed on property you own on Jan first. I was careful to not send in the application until after that. Nevertheless, I got a letter from the tax assessor asking, "How long have you owned this aircraft?". I replied that as I had no A/W certificate, that I did not yet own any airplane, just airplane parts. That seemed to work, they left me alone until the next year. They are still appraising it for more than it is insured for, but that's another story. -------- Bob Turner RV-10 QB Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=405092#405092

    If you're in a place like California where you'll get a huge tax bill for the plane, call the Tax agency and tell them ahead of time. I was able to get deferred a year while I finished up the plane to make it "flyable". Once you explain it's a home built and the FAA registration is needed for the pink slip, that may not come for months, the agency usually understands and works with you. Just get it done in less than a year ;-) -----Original Message----- From: Sean Stephens Sent: Monday, July 22, 2013 12:08 PM Subject: RV10-List: Fast When They Don't Have To Be Here I was planning ahead by a few months to get my registration into the FAA as recommended.

    Subject: : RV10-List:Stick Rotation - Was: Brain trust stick wiring poll
    My main point about stick grip rotation was less about an absolute number and more about avoiding blindly installing a grip (especially an Infinity Grip) straight forward. 10 degrees, 40 degrees whatever you want just don't near permanently affix your grip without some forethought. I say especially an Infinity Grip because they seem to be more "molded" than say the Tosten grips. As for the desk test mentioned below maybe pushing away gives an ideal rotation of 5-10 but I doubt pulling gives you the same result. I hope to never have to exert that much pressure on an RV stick. I take that back when doing Power On Stalls in the -10 either solo or with my light weight instructor and half tanks the -10 feels like you have to stand it on its tail to cause it to stall. In that instance I find you might want even more rotation as it feels more like a curling a heavy weight. Man that -10 is hard to stall with power on. I remember being totally drenched after 3 Power On Stalls, followed by the most gentle and predictable break. I love my RV's!

    Subject: Re: : RV10-List:Stick Rotation - Was: Brain trust stick wiring poll
    I don't recall doing a power on stall yet in a -10. However, since the point of the exercise is in a max gross wt and high density altitude scenario, I would think that one would want to limit power to around 60-70% for such a maneuver if you aren't in fact at full gross. You want what it feels to take off at gross from Big Bear, Flagstaff, Leadville, Aspen, etc on a summer day so as to not inadvertently stall in that situation. Having all the excess power of a -10 at 30% useful load is not going to give you any idea of what a typical departure stall feels like.

    YMMV when you come to a sudden, unplanned stop. Yes, we sell tie downs ($49, available on our web site), but mostly because I'm pretty fanatic about securing stuff in the cabin and the baggage compartment. Early in my career I worked for a company that lost a customer after he survived the crash but not the baggage. I have tiedowns and a cargo net. Belt and suspenders, literally.

    The reason it was memorable is it is a flight scenario you will never get yourself into inadvertently. The whole point of doing stalls is to do them in the way that they would inadvertently bite you when you are distracted. Like the power off base to final turn, the accelerated steep turn about a moose or nudist camp, etc. You know, when you are totally focused on something outside the plane, like obstacles off the end of runway on full gross takeoff at 10,000 DA, and you mind is saying "what is that annoying buzzing outside my ANR headset".

I say especially an Infinity Grip because they seem to be more "molded" than say the Tosten grips. Good point. I have flown with a stick that had a bicycle grip with the 'knuckles' straight forward. Really uncomfortable. You can get a good idea fo the angle if you place your hand in a 'loose grip' and see where the thumb intersection is in relation to the 2nd or 3rd finger joints. Just hold the stick grip where it's comfortable. I always thought a Tosten grip would work really well in an airplane with a center stick.

You just give it gentle nudges with 1 or 2 fingers and it does what you want. Honestly I never ever have the need to grab the grip with a full hand on most flights. You could throw an mis-shapen blob of rocks on the end of the stick and I could fly with it, because gripping it is just not something you would do for hours on end. Your forearm rests on your legs and it's very comfortable to fly. I could fly with it cockeyed by 40 degrees, 90 degrees, or 180 degrees. > > But, when the rubber meets the road, and you DO need to grip it hard, that's likely going to be during a time of trouble....some time when you're going to actually exert yourself to push or pull or yank and bank like during some event or bad turbulence. At that point I would recommend that the yoke be rotated in the direction that gives you the most arm "solid" control ability. Sit at your desk right now, and try to push yourself back from your desk with your fist, and see what position your arm wants to be in. Mine certainly doesn't have full strength at 40 degrees offset. In fact, it's probably not many degrees off straight...maybe 5-10 at most. > > So my position on it is basically....rotate the grip so that if you needed to do a hard push to override an autopilot or break a stall or perform a hard maneuver, you could do it with a locked wrist and be comfortable. And, beyond that, don't worry about it much because if you're giving the stick your full grip during normal maneuvers you're probably trying too hard...it's a plane that can be flown with fingertips and trim alone. > > As Dave Mason sung years ago.....

With the Infinity wire bundle there are a LOT of wires. I think we ended up using a common ground so we were able to remove more than a third of the wires leaving extras in case I wanted to expand in the future. This made it a lot easier to fish through the stick. On the tail end we used a D Shell style connector in the rare event we would have to remove the stick. We did the same set up on all the 2 place RV's as we often removed the Co-pilots stick for various reasons. >> One note on grip buttons. If I were to do it over again with all the modern tech and push button items in our cockpit I would now dedicate one button to an OK or Accept button. We get the most random notifications on these glass displays that simply request acknowledgement. It would be nice the flick a pinky to confirm the notification. >> One note on the grips themselves. I see so many installs that have the grip facing straight forward. I strongly suggest you sit in your seat properly located forward & aft to see what angle your stick hand lands on the stick. Put the grip in our hand un-mounted or over the stick to see what feels best. Close your eyes and drop your hand into position. Do it several times. You will notice the ideal orientation has significant rotation from directly forward. Mine was about a 40 Degree rotation. No way would straight forward be comfortable for long hand flying. Even worse on takeoff when you often have to flick the trim several times, flip the Flaps Up toggle and push the flip/flop not having the correct & natural orientation on the grip makes for something less than ideal button orientation as well as a less natural placement in your hand.

    Subject: Dynon News
    For those who may have missed this today: Quick Link: http://dynonavionics.com/docs/news_AFS-Acquisition_22July2013.html Long version: ************************************************************* Woodinville, WA, July 22nd, 2013 - Dynon Avionics and Advanced Flight Systems (AFS) have joined forces, with the acquisition of AFS by Dynon. Advanced Flight Systems is an innovator in avionics for experimental aircraft. Started in 1999 by founder and President Rob Hickman, AFS first offered one of the most popular engine monitoring systems available for homebuilts. This soon grew into an "aircraft monitoring system" featuring other airframe monitoring and notification systems, a full featured fuel computer, and an engine data acquisition instrument. AFS holds patents on Angle of Attack (AoA) technology and has long been a leader with AoA products. Their EFIS products have long been first to market with innovative new features. Dynon Avionics is the leading manufacturer of avionics for experimental and light sport aircraft, with worldwide sales and distribution in over forty countries. Started in 2000 and located with design and manufacturing facilities near Seattle, Washington, Dynon has been at the center of research and development for modern avionics products. Their mission is to offer advanced products at affordable prices. Rob Hickman commented on the acquisition, saying "I am pleased to be working with a company so committed to experimental aircraft. We have long been friendly competitors; their resources, infrastructure, and financial stability allow me to focus on the product development that I love to do. If Dynon had not been in this market, glass panel systems would still cost $20,000 to $30,000, and they will be again if the people truly dedicated to homebuilders aren't working together." Robert Hamilton, President of Dynon agrees, saying "We look forward to working with AFS as collaborators. The homebuilder market has always been the incubator for advanced technologies. Keeping the true innovators working in this industry is important to us, and we have the financial resources, market presence, and company growth to be able to keep AFS going strong in this market for years to come." Rob Hickman and his staff will stay where they are currently located, in Canby, Oregon, and both companies will continue to operate their design, sales, marketing, and support functions separately. Dynon will use its financial leverage and extensive manufacturing and supply chain resources to lower the cost structure for AFS. Mr. Hamilton mentions "With our strong US manufacturing, we can help bring economies of scale to the development and production of Rob's products." Founded in 2000, Dynon Avionics is the leading manufacturer of avionics for Experimental and Light Sport Aircraft. Continuing a tradition started with the introduction of their first Electronic Flight Information System "glass panel", Dynon is committed to developing innovative and high-quality avionics integrating the newest technology as it develops at affordable prices for all pilots. For more information about Dynon products please contact Dynon at 425.402.0433 or info@DynonAvionics.com. Visit Dynon Avionics on the Web at www.DynonAvionics.com <http://www.dynonavionics.com/> . For more information about Advanced Flight Systems products please contact AFS at 503.263.0037 or info@Advanced-Flight-Systems.com. **************************************************************************** ******************************* Acquisition FAQ Q: Why is Dynon acquiring AFS? A: To use Dynon's financial strength to keep AFS strong and vibrant in the experimental community. Q: Are AFS and Dynon merging? A: No. Both AFS and Dynon will continue to operate as separate companies. Q: Will AFS be moving or consolidating with Dynon? A: No. There are no changes in location in either company. AFS is located in Canby, Oregon, and Dynon is located in Woodinville, Washington. Q: Will AFS be winding down their company over time? A: No. In fact, this acquisition is explicitly designed to keep AFS products thriving in the market. Q: Will Dynon technical support be supporting AFS products, or vice versa? A: No. Each company continues with their own tech support staff. Dynon staff will not provide technical support on AFS products, and vice-versa. Q: Are there going to be changes in personnel, especially at AFS? Is Rob leaving? A: No. There are no changes in personnel. Rob will continue to run AFS and will be busier than ever. Q: Will Dynon Sales and Marketing be promoting AFS products, or vice versa? A: No. Each company will continue their own sales and marketing programs. Q: Will Dynon manufacture AFS products? A: Dynon intends to help manufacture some of the AFS products, although the details of which products and when are not yet decided. Regardless, AFS products will still be theirs, and their delivery, support, and warranty policies will continue as before. Q: Will AFS and Dynon products be combined? A: No. AFS will continue their product line and Dynon will continue theirs for the foreseeable future. The two companies will be sharing their respective technology expertise, so that both product lines continue to improve. AFS will continue to source some product modules from Dynon, like the transponder, with more to follow. Q: What about the previously-announced collaboration between AFS and TruTrak? A: AFS will continue to support TruTrak autopilots. However, a joint ATS venture will not be moving forward. Q: Which product should I buy, AFS or Dynon? A: What is important is you still have a choice of the two best product lines on the market, from companies that are truly dedicated to the experimental market. Cheers, Stein Do not archive

    Just a quick post to let everybody know that we're on-site, sites are staked out and the group is located along 54th St, just south of Lindbergh. The tags will be picked up in the morning to make it official. I'll send more details to those camping with us tomorrow. It's raining now but the long term forecast looks spectacular! It also appears to be more crowded than in past years and we haven't yet been able to secure any picnic tables... Feel free to swing by even if not camping with us. As always, we'll have the coffee going in the mornings! Bob Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=405128#405128

That seemed to work, they left me alone until the nex t year.=0A=0AThey are still appraising it for more than it is insured for, but that's another story.=0A=0A--------=0ABob Turner=0ARV-10 QB=0A=0A=0A=0A =0ARead this topic online here:=0A=0Ahttp://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic. ==

    Subject: Re: Baggage Tie Downs
    I built mine from the hinge material used to secure the cowls, basically made a few holes and pop riveted them in, cost about.. $1 dollar in pop rivets and spare parts. I use it on every flight for holding down a bin with extra oil, plexi cleaner, tie down material, chocks (made from spare angle), etc.. I have a rug in the area as well, cut around the hinges.. I used a tie down net from my motorcycle, but can be easily acquired from the car dept. in Walmart. Put the tie down in, they dont take much space and it's there if you need it for whatever that may be. If you decide not to do so, just dont practice negative G's with anything back there. Keep in mind I do not use the tie down for large luggage any for smaller pieces I want secured.

    Tim, The tram does not go to the FBO, call the "Welcom Wagon" they can take you where ever. I don't have their number but they are right next to the sign in area at the flight line. Dick Sipp -----Original Message----- From: Tim Lewis Sent: Monday, July 22, 2013 10:27 PM Subject: RV10-List: AirVenture trams run on Sunday? I'm soliciting list insight into tram availability Sunday at OSH. This will be my first time arriving at OSH the day before the show officially starts. I'll need to get from homebuilt parking over to the FBO area to get my car. Thanks, Tim -- Tim Lewis -- HEF (Manassas, VA) RV-6A N47TD -- 1104 hrs - sold RV-10 N31TD -- 400 hrs

    They've got busses that go that way. Just go in and work your way to the bu s pickup and ride it all the way around 9/27. It shouldn't be too bad at al l from the RV parking area.

    Tim, The trams don't run over to the FBO but I can probably help. I sent you an email offline with my contact info.

    Yup. I said busses. I'm not sure the welcome wagon would go over there....they would go to home bullseye HQ and to Scholler though. The trams for anywhere internal. So no matter where you want to go there's a way.
