Default Best RV-14 Build Youtube Channels

I am just starting my build and am looking for some good RV-14 builders youtube sites. I've found some through random searching but thought I'd ask here.

Specifically, I'd like some that are detail oriented - not high level or time-lapses.

Any suggestions?

I don’t know about you tube channels, but you can get a lot of very useful info on RV-14 internet build sites. One I recommend is Carl and Rafael’s site. Very complete. It is/was listed as a resource at the Van’s website. There are others, too.

Andrew Kilroy has a good RV-14A build channel. He did a LOT of customizations to the airplane though.

Bonus with Andrew's site: he is very funny and his "rants" are priceless.....

Mudfly (Shawn) is being modest. He does phenomenal work and does a great job of explaining what he did. UNTIL HE QUIT POSTING!!

Seriously Shawn, you do excellent work, the pictures are well done. Miss the updates!

Thanks Reflex. I'm still in the game. Once I got behind on the blog updates it was just too much to get caught back up. I occasionally will post a bunch of pictures. Those also help me look back and remember what I did years ago
I have respect for those that can build and keep their blogs updated. It's A LOT of work. I don't have enough brain cells, or time, to study avionics, fiberglass, electrical, etc. and keep the blog updated.
Also, remember when using builder blogs, including mine, be careful of "great ideas". Sometimes they are great ideas and sometimes not. The blogs aren't always updated later to say "don't do what I did". You need to review several and make your own decisions. Overall though, I find them very helpful, especially the pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words!
Shawn

Oh, but I so enjoy his videos. The rants are great! Not so sure about that wrap, but I’m watching and learning…
