Here is a link to the Trutak display replacement:
https://www.crystalfontz.com/c/graphic-lcds-&-oleds/resolution/122x32/186
There are different background colors to choose from. I haven't tried
these, but I got this link from someone on Van's Airforce website that had
used it. I kept the link because my display has lines missing and I plan to
change it at some point.

Is there an after market maker of improved speed wheel pants for the RV
10? It would seem to me that a less bulky wheel pant would offer less
drag and the Vans kit wheel pants certainly don't have to be as wide as
they are to clear the tires. Doc N123CV & N784DC

Ken Krueger sells carbon main gear pants for RV-8s with 6.00-6 wheels,
which is the same wheel the -10 uses. I saw them at OSH, beautiful
composite work.
Smaller cross section than the Van=99s pants and better looking than
the
James ones. Less drag? Maybe...

The discs get very hot. The narrower you make the pants, the closer you
have fiberglass/carbon next to the disk.

Lew Gallagher:=C2- =C2-Hey Doc.=C2- Good suggestions here, take your
pick. But here's a thought.=C2- A while back an owner of a RV-10 and a RV
-3 had me modify Van's pants for a RV-8 to replace his skinny pants on the
RV-3 ... and=C2- it is a=C2- hot rod!=C2- He had researched it and de
cided the tear shaped "fat" ones were more aerodynamic/slicker than the ski
nny ones.=C2- And when I had them on, they also looked very cool!=C2- I
would suggest you contact Van's before you go with skinnier pants to see i
f they've done the research.=C2- Later, - Lew
Is there an after market maker of improved speed wheel pants for the RV 10?

The RV-10 uses pressure recovery wheel pants. Faster than smaller ones.
(You can look it up on vansairforce.net)
