I was very impressed with this engine but wanted to hear what other RV builders
thought.

Also, thank you to Ed and the gang for putting together the RV-10 dinner. It was
nice to put a face with the emails. I look forward to building and the many
years of flying.

I was disappointed to see that it cost about the same as a Lycoming.

Need some part numbers.
A Rhode Island Air National Guard C-130 prop blasted my plane on the ramp at KIXD.
The good news I was on the prop when he went to beta to back up on the ramp
so I was able to hold the plane somewhat as the blast spun it around. The
bad new is the blast got under the pilot door, flipping it up and the hinges
snapped in half. The door did a midair pivot and then bounced along the right
wing and ended up in the grass. The damage is significant, but not structural.
What I need is the part numbers for the pilot side hinges and the pop rivet size
for the door brace bracket. I'll call Van's tomorrow to get them sent overnight.
Once back at the home hangar I'll figure out how much skin needs to be
replaced.
I expressed my disagreement with the C-130's pilot on his action.

WD-1018L/WD-1019L for the front

LP4-3 for the pop rivets
Sorry about the situation, and I do hope the National Guard will fess up
to the $$$ damage.

You could get a plate and bolt across where the hinges go with the door closed
and get in from the copilot side and fly home like that. Then you would have your
tools and shop to do the repair.

Thanks for the idea Jesse. I'm good where I am for a few days so I'll just do
the replacement hinges.
What I don't know is how much work it will be to make the plane right. I suspect
I'll need to explain to the Rhode Island Air National Guard that there is a
big difference between "right" and a hammer the skin out "fix".

The hinge is usually the part to break. I have seen some broken fiberglass, but
more often it is the hinge.

The hinges snapped like a dry twig, both on the door side of the hinge befor
e the screws. The fiberglass, as far as I can see at first look, is fine. I
n the attached photo you can just see the hinge break. The only door damage
found so far is the forward bottom corner where it bounced off the wing ski
n.

Hmm... My first thought is that I'd like to build a stronger hinge. But
then again, the idea of a break-away hinge is great!
I'm just curious to know if they snapped at the weld, bolt, or some other
place.
Sorry to hear about the damage.

| Subject: | GMU 44 (Magnetometer) - Mounting |
I've seen a handful of folks mounting the GMU 44 in various places such as
inside the tailcone, in the lightening holes on the aft tailcone cover, and
even in wingtips.
I was thinking of installing it in the left wing, but the pitot heat could
cause trouble with that much current being in the vicinity. .
So I thought about the right wing tip, but the TruTrak AP servo is in that
one and I just found that the manual suggest 10ft separation from the servo
motor.
So, now I'm kinda stuck. Where is everyone putting them and what results
are you seeing? Photo's would be helpful too.
Thanks,
Phil

Mine is in the wing tip about 4-5' from the pitot heat. It passes the EMI te
st just fine.
Biggest issue I came across was EMI from the wing tip landing light causing i
nterference. Changed two twisted shielded pair for power wires to the lights
. No issue anymore.

Mine is mounted to the bulkhead behind the battery mount. Sorry, but I do not
have access to the manual. It's on a shelf at the top of the bulkhead. I believe
that's where most are mounting it.

We did a wingtip installation on an -8. As above, it required a twisted
shielded pair for the landing lights but otherwise no issues.

One thing to avoid is any coiling in the wires near the magnetometer. The 8
Dave refers to failed the EMI test miserably the first time with the wing t
ip lights on. We pulled the wing tip and found a coil in the shielded twiste
d pair. We made some adjustments and got rid of the coil, no problems.

Sorry to hear about your damage and hope you get back in the air soon.
A good lesson for all of us with these flimsy gull wing doors, castoring nose wheels
and a bunch without rudder springs.
Keep the doors closed or hold them, the parking brake set/chocks in and rudder
gust lock/seat belt around stick if not loading to go.
We were at an airport in VT a few weeks ago with a P-51 and a couple of Citations
running nearby while we were getting ready to load. My family were given specific
jobs because nothing was secure other than the parking brake. I closed
both doors and latched them while they each held the rudder, aileron and elevator.
No blasts came our way but we were not taking any chances until they were
all heading down the taxiway.
