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.

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.

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 just didn't like the looks of the Tosten, although the swivel function

Part of the reason for my choosing the Infinity is .... I'll have
aileron and rudder trim driven by model airplane servos. Maxed out the
switches with only one momentary switch not spoke for. I figured that I
could let switches go unused Vs. adding switches later .......
One comment on running the huge number of wires .... I have all wires
running through a DB-25 that connects to a harness. The harness is 3
DB-25s, one mounted each side behind the pilot/copilot calf and one in
the center tunnel for distribution .... all in parallel. I can easily
install a switch to break the copilots ground rendering that stick inop
.... just haven't found a good place to put the switch.
Linn .... through 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. A few inches of double sided
tape and you have a surface that limits stuff moving around - and it looks
good. $20 got me enough to change out this carpet several times.

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.

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 ;-)

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

crash but not the baggage.
I have tiedowns and a cargo net. Belt and suspenders, literally.

I tried Power On Stalls in several configurations including right near Max Gross
Weight. The Lightly loaded one was particularly memorable that is why I mentioned
it. It is the time I recall having to pull most on an RV stick.

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.

If you fly in turbulence, like penetrating any kind of weather, it is a must.

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".

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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/> .

*******************************
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

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!

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.

Are many people putting baggage tie downs in the baggage compartment?

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.

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

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.
