| Subject: | Newly joined the rv-6 list |
Greetings all:
My brother and I bought a previously-owned RV-6 kit in the crates about a year
ago and have been building for about ten months. He is doing the wings, while
I have the fuselage and empennage at my place. Empennage is complete less the
fiberglass work, while the fuse is at the skeleton stage.
The wings are probably 50% complete--the tanks still to be done.
So far I guess we are pretty typical ... I've built 3 tube and fabric experimentals
and found them very easy ... the RV is a different type of building and the
blueprints and manual are cryptic to say the least. We have printed out and
consult the Justice notes frequently, plus I have watched the Orndorf videos
countless times. We alternate frustration and satisfaction ... from what I hear
that is normal.
I've had to reorder two parts so far, fortunately they were cheap ones. Now that
we are in the thick of building, I'm sure we will have questions for the list.
BTW, I am building the fuse in Lexington, SC and the wings are in Lancaster,
SC (about an hour distant). One of these days we'll be test fitting the wings
to fuse ... should be exciting.

Fellow RV builders,
Once again it is time for TCW Technologies to announce the availability
of a new product. We have designed a small control module called
SmartStart. It simplifies the installation and operation of push
button or control stick starting of the aircraft engine starter.
SmartStart provides an arming switch input and an interlock input and 1
minute timer during which a momentary switch may activate the engine
starter. The arming switch may be hidden to improve theft resistance
of the aircraft, the 1 minute timer helps prevent inadvertent starter
activation. The interlock switch may be coupled to a door or canopy
switch. SmartStart directly drives standard starter contactors and
is all electronic.
All the details are on our web site: www.tcwtech.com
Best regards,
Bob Newman
TCW Technologies, LLC.
