Looks like hydraulic power will be ready to lift the door this Saturday.
No - this not another request for assistance - you can just come an
watch if interested and nothing better to do{:>).
Installed the hydraulic lines and power pack yesterday, hope to get the
electrical power connections done today and fire it up tomorrow.
Door is still hanging freely with no sag - so far so good. Next phase
is to add the sheathing to the door within the next couple of weeks.

Due to a poor weather forecast for Saturday, we are changing the Poker
Run to Sunday, August 13 which is supposed to be a much nicer day!
We'll delay everything by an hour or so, eat around 12 noon, Poker
starts at 12:30.
Hope to see you there.

Let me know if you have any questions.

There are instructors listed on various Vans web sites, including VAF. None
are in NC. I am not aware of anyone local who has an airplane with the
right insurance for instruction. They generally require that you have a
tail wheel sign off before you do the transition training (if you are going
that route). Good luck.

Subject: RVSouthEast-List: RV 7 training
--> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: David Lee <odlee@bellsouth.net>
Hello all,
I am in the process of ordering a RV 7 kit. I still have not made the
choice of taildragger or trike.
Despite Larry Bowen's free ride to Goose Creek last Saturday, he
chose not let me land Nifty from the rear seat, imagine that!
Anyway, I have only about 3 hours of taildragger time (2500 total)
and need some first hand training in a -6 or-7. Is anyone near GSO
that can offer this service?
I will also be doing triai flights in my instructor's Maule. This is
a very different aircraft from the Van's.
As I have not started the kit there is still time before a decision
has to be finalized, but would like to do some flying in September.
If anyone has a suggestion it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David Lee

| Subject: | ammeter question |
Hello:
For those with expertise in electrical...This is the question. if I turn
the master switch on, and load any other
one, such as landing lights, or strobes anything else...The Ammeter shows
charge,, positive..
( I know it should show discharge, no matter if is a little) EVERYTHING WAS
FINE, SINCE FIRST FLIGHT...
This started stw days ago...
It does no matter if the engine is running or not....Everything else seems
to be fine...
What say you,,, First step, what to check etc..
Thanks

I got some very benefitial training from the Super Decathelon at INT. It
has similar manners as the RV, though everthing happens in slow motion.
Yes, it's tandem, but I think it still might help. I can give you contact
info if interested.

I don't know much regarding electrical except this. You can't read amps
when the alternator is not putting out power. You mentioned this
happens whether the engine is turning or not. I feel you have an
instrument error. What are you using?

| Subject: | ammeter question |
Bert,
This is really a stretch on my knowledge of electronics, but I have a
THEORY. Depending on the location of your sensor, the draw to could
actually be read as a positive charge. If you are attempting to read
positive current from the alternator, but your sensor is actually on the
battery side of your bus, then the flow to the positive pole (trons don't
really go from + to -), would be the same as if you were pushing the
electricity from your alternator. This idea could be whacked, but you may
consider just changing the location of your amp sensor.
I guess I would check if it shows a greater positive current with the
alternator running. Just out of curiosity, what ammeter are you using. If
it's something like a Grand Rapids EIS then another possibility is the scale
and/or offset values got changed somehow.
If you don't get a useful response here, you may try posting it on the
Aeroelectric Matronics page.
Marcus
RV-10 inspection tomorrow morning!!!!
