Albert,
Seems like we are all waiting for the Pmag. Last sun/fun, I spotted Surefly e
lectronic ignition across from Pmag's booth. You might want to look into the
product. There are differences between the two, one being that Surefly is a
vailable right now.

They offered one of the first models to me. I chickened out since I travel long
distances, mostly on the weekends, and did not want to be stranded. I will be
talking to them again at sun/fun. One RV 10 has the product but I have not been
able to connect.

I spoke with them at Oshkosh this year and learned enough to peak my interest.
They recommend 1 and a mag. I discussed the advantages of this
but I wanted to hear from others that have taken the plunge.

| Subject: | Re: 6 Cylinder P Mag |
SureFly recently published the advance curve for their ignition (it's on the front
page of their website) and it seems a bit more aggressive than other popular
electronic ignitions. The bummer is that the curve is not changeable.
It sure seems like a quick and easy mag replacement since it connects right up
to the Slick harness like a mag.
I have a Lightspeed and been thinking that it would be nice to get rid of my mag,
but if I get stuck somewhere I'd rather have a broken magneto that almost any
shop can fix or at least sell me parts for it, than be grounded until i receive
a replacement for the SureFly. Then again, the SureFly pops right out and
I can borrow a mag and get going.
I'll just stick to my current setup for now.

Any RV folks have a spare tube and time to fly it to Sault Ste. Marie MI? They
don't even have bottle jacks here either so it's a challenge.

Bummer. I carry spare tubes for main and nose (used but serviceable) and an adapter
for a bottle jack to fit under the tie-down lug.
Probably too big a spare parts kit, but heck, you never know.hope you get back

Once you get the nut off you can use a scissors jack and a piece of pipe
(I"???) to lift the mains to get the wheel off the axle and then let
down on a couple of 2X4s while you work on the wheel. I'm not sure it's
practical to carry the scissors jack and pipe while on a trip ..... I'm
not there yet. The little yellow air pump from Harbor Freight doesn't
weigh much.
I'm all for prevention when it comes to the wheels/tires, but things do
go wrong in a hurry.
Proper assembly of the wheel/tube/tire will go a long way to prevent a flat.

nose tire. I thought you had 2 flying RV's and a second pilot.....

Thanks all. I think it's just a bad tube. The mate for this tube also had a pinhole
in it a while back and had me stranded. I didn't learn the lesson well
enough I guess. Let me just tell you, you will almost surely not find a 15-6.00/6
tube on hand anywhere so do travel with one. I will from now on. I had
it on my list to order a spare next week. Was trying to recover from a low cash
month. Turns out waiting caused a bigger cash outlay. I have never had a
problem with a nose tube and don't expect to but I will from now on carry a spare
tube for the mains with me and probably a nose too, since it fits the RV14
as well. I will also use Ashley Millers 1-1/8" saddle clamp idea and carry
one to use with a bottle jack. And I have added a ratcheting screw bit wrench
to my tool list as well for those lower wheel fairing screws. Sadly I just bought
one for my RV14 tool kit but never added one to the RV10 kit. Bought one
today to keep in that plane. A guy can go broke on spare tools. ;)
I'll be better prepared next time.
The result on this trip? My parents are taking a sudden vacation to Sault Ste.
Marie. I booked them a hotel room and they are bringing my wing jack, bead breaker,
used serviceable tube, and a few tools. 8+ hour drive. Took me 2 hours
to fly here....Actually Andrea did the flying.
I guess my 2 day weekend will take 3...
Good thing is a long weekend.

Tim, I'm 1.5 hrs at most from the Sault, here in Southern Ont. Unfortunately I
had left rotator cuff surgery a week ago so I'm grounded for a few weeks, otherwise
I could have been up there quickly.
Good luck.

one to use with a bottle jack. And I have added a ratcheting screw bit wrench

bought one for my RV14 tool kit but never added one to the RV10 kit. Bought

In a pinch you could use a 600x6 tube to get you home. I have also been stuck before.
A friend & I squatted the wing enough to get the tire off & then set the
axle on some wood blocks while we fixed the tire.

Can you share more detail on the 1-1/8" saddle clamp idea?
Thanks,

Sorry about that...that came from an Aussie RV10 builder.
Here is the VAF link:
http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showpost.php?p=1077119&postcount=6
Pretty cheap and simple. Worth adding to the kit. I guess there are still a
ny number of things that can make a guy stuck, but just having the right com
bination of items along can help make things better. In this case, had I ha
d a new tube, I probably would have figured something out. But I was too du
mb to carry a spare tube. This will be remedied Tuesday. I've now had 3 tu
be failures in the past maybe 2 years. 1 was my fault. The tube that went b
ad today though is from the same purchase date as the first one that went ba
d, so I'm questioning the tube. I always install then wrinkle free with ple
nty of talc. I can't wait to see what the leak looks like tomorrow.
