Subject: RV6-List: Aerobatics and Instrument Damage

I have completed some excellent Unusual Attitude training in a Cap-10 which 
included loops, rolls and spins and will soon complete additional aerobatic 
training.  Then I would like to try some of these aerobatics maneuvers in 
my RV-6.  However, I am a little concern that the gyro tumbling and/or G 
forces of aerobatics may hurt my instruments.  I have an AI, HSI and S-TEC 
autopilot all containing electric gyros and would hate to damage them.  What has

been your experience with aerobatics and instrument damage?  Should I be 
concerned about this?
