Congrats from down in Chandler!
Question for you. How did your weight and balance work out? I asked
Van's about installing an engine similar in weight to the IO-360 and
they told me that the IO-360 was too heavy of an engine for the -6 and
that it wasn't designed for that weight. Any problems with W&B on your
-6?

Chris:
I recently completed a RV6 in Houston with a O-360 A1A and a Sensenich metal
fixed prop and the W & B came out just fine.
I was told that RV6's generally had a tendency to be tail heavy so a little
extra weight in the nose did not hurt.
That was my case. My empty weight was 1039 lbs and even with low fuel and two
people, I can still carry 60 lbs of baggage in the back.
I don't think I am an exception.
Regards,
Eduardo Iglesias

Well stated Lyle.
Some of these guys can get very cavalier.

I have just finished installing my wing tip lights from RDS lighting. A very good
set of lights, however pricey!
What procedure has been used to aim the lights to get the light pattern needed
for landing and runway lighting? I propose to use one light pointed for landing
and the other for runway lighting, ( good idea or not?) Is there a simple
way of calibrating lights while on the ground, like auto headlamps where you shine
lights at a wall and measure up so far for correct lighting?
I have also connected an alternating flasher system for increased recognition.
Any help will be appreciated, as I know anyone with lights has to have done this
