| Subject: | High flashpoint Brake fluid |
--> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: "Wayne Williams" <rwayne@gamewood.net>
FYI:
As I'm sure many of you have heard there have been brake/ airplane fires
when fluid leaked onto the discs. (This has happened to some RV's!) Our
local FBO has found the brake fluid with a much higher flashpoint, therefore
safer. (MILPRF83282)It sells for $25.00 gal. It was previously recommended
on another RV list. It is newer and designed to avoid the problems with the
older fluid.
You can get it from Danville FBO, General aviation (www.flydanville.com)
(Rembold-Air@gamewood.net)
Anyone on another list may want to post this there as this fluid has been
almost impossible to find.

Wayne, sometime back, it seems someone was looking into acquiring some of
this brake fluid as I recall asking for a quart myself. Is this the same
thread? Just order a quart from Danville FBO?

Same thing, but he will only sell it by the gallon. We could get groups of 4
to split a gallon on our own...

A four way split of a gallon would be fine with me.

Ask Dennis to tell you the story of the RV-8A he was taxi-testing that
caught on fire. I have a rather spectacular picture of the wheel pant
aflame.
My understanding is that you also need to replace the standard O-rings that
come with the Cleveland brake set with gaskets that have a higher melt
point.

I Bob.
thank you for your response
I have been talking to a couple of guys about the auto pilot and both agreed
from their experience that tru track would probably be their choice if they
had to do it again one has navaid and the other ez pilot,
also Vans sales the tru track and they tested it.
I probably will go with the digiflight II.
Let me know your thought.
Andre.

Lori, would you or Dennis happen to know of a source/part number for the
higher temp "O" rings?
Thanks

Andre,
I read an account written by Al Carpenter with an RV-6A and he installed a
Tru Trak and flew a long xcountry to the west coast and back with it and
loved it. I emailed him and asked him again and he confirmed he would do it
again. Said it preformed fantastic in turbulence. But I also read accounts
from Michael Stewart with Team RV and he loves his Trio......but remember
it is only lately the Tru Trak guys made a version to drive the Nav-aid
servo and at first the Trio was the only game in town and a easy retro fit.
So it seems only right the guys switching would love the Trio.
http://home.hiwaay.net/~sbuc/journal/EZ_Pilot.htm
Check out Sam Buchanans site for his results too.
Even Doug Reeves swapped his Navaid and loves the Trio ........
I would like to also add the altitude hold and even though they are two
seperate systems it would be nice to have the same brand equipment, I
guess.......everything I read says they are both good systems, guys I
respect like them both, so I'm starting to think we couldn't go wrong with
either one. I have a 3 1/8 inch hole to fill in my panel so the Trio would
fill it nicely. The trutrak 3 1/8 unit is the same as the 2 1/4 with a
larger face......small details for sure.........
It is interesting if I read your post correctly that you spoke to a guy that
has the Trio and would use the TruTrak if he had it to do over again?????
Are you thinking about the digiflight II because it combines the wing
leveler and alt hold in one unit? because it does cost a little more than
the basic Tru Trak unit and seperate alt hold.

Thanks Larry.
The photos were taken by one of our local guys that rides with us during
formation practice a lot. His name is Steve Richardson.
There are more that I will submit later on.
As mentioned several times earlier, it was a great session. Looking forward
to the January session(s).
James
