    Agreed and I cleaned the pavement well before the run. It was used to find a tiny oil leak which seem to require T/O power to show. Mike -------- RV-10 builder (flying, test phase) #511 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=409030#409030

    I purchased new engine from Van's. I had to tighten all clamps on drainback tubes and fix a leak at the oil cooler fittings. The leaks only showed up after flight as wind blown oil spatter. Sometimes difficult to pinpoint. Enjoy the cool air test flights. It is still a great performer in the summer compared to 172/182. -------- Wayne G.

    Looking for a Flying RV10 or a RV10 Kit that has been started. If you have thoughts about selling, call and we can discuss. I am very familiar with the RV series..

    I was poking around on the web today and was checking out RV-10 websites and I saw an awesome new RV-10 back seat mod that many of you can appreciate. It looks to be extremely well done, but doesn't appear to be ready quite yet. Check out the video from Sept 20th at: http://www.edandcolleen.com Tim do not archive

    From: Fred Williams <drfred1960@gmail.com>
    Has anyone had a failure of the red cube fuel flow transducer? I move mine to the engine compartment down stream from the mechanical fuel pump about 75 hrs ago. Has preformed flawlessly and no more intermittent flow drops that possibly could be secondary to vapor problems. However, I took a day trip to Dallas today. 90 deg F temps. The plane sat on the ramp all day. Started right up, normal flow and pressures across the board. About 10 minutes into a 30 minute flight, the flow dropped to 1.5 gal /hr and stayed about there. No real change with turning on the fuel pump. Fuel pressure remained normal, recycled the electronics came back on with the same low reading. I haven't had time to open up the cowling. Acts just like the red cube failed. Any pointers? Thanks Dr Fred 515FW 575 hrs.

    Yes. I have one on my Mooney. Several cases of the wire leads breaking, which depending on which one gives you high or low readings or none at all. The leads need to be well protected from flexing and vibration. On 9/23/2013 6:49 PM, Fred Williams wrote: > Has anyone had a failure of the red cube fuel flow transducer?

    I have the red cube mounted in my engine compartment too. I have 430 hours o n mine with no trouble and within .3 gallons every time I check at fill up. I know in the directions that came with the cube, hard mounting to the engine can cause failure due to excessive vibration.

    From: Jeff Carpenter <jeff@westcottpress.com>
    ... just to report on the feedback from Joe at Vans: He said that the curved portion of the air ramps should be pulled in as close to the fins as possible, but suggested a bead of red RTV near the flange to keep them from actually touching. If they touch, the fins will eventually wear through the baffle. He offered that safety wire could be used instead of the rods, but that some kind of steel around the flange of the baffle would be necessary to keep the wire from cutting through the baffle at the hole. Two nuts or loctite is what I need to use as the lock nuts don't seem to be "locking" On Sep 21, 2013, at 3:18 PM, Jeff Carpenter wrote: > When I make the outboard tension rods to the plan specs, I get the gap you see in the attached picture between the curved portion of the fwd left air ramp and the cooling fins.
