Hi All,
I am currently at the "sorting point" in the build .... just before the floors go down, and I was after some feedback on a number of items and their effectiveness/relevance/importance before I purchase/install.
I know this is a big set of questions, however, I am presently going mad; I require some experienced builders/flyers comments to help me clarify.
The items I am looking at and require feedback on are the following:
1. Andair Fuel Value
2. Matco wheel replacement/machining
3. Axle extension and front axle
4. Flap positioning system
5. Safety trim
6. RV-10 Flap Trim Control w/trim compensation
7. FT-60 or Flow scan (being used hopefully with AFS systems)
8. Fuel Pump and Fuel Filter unit
9. Aileron trim system
10. Additional Conduit under seating Best "structural" options for IFR aircraft
a) Through rear wing spar in cabin to tail ( e.g. http://www.etigerrr.com/Fuselage/section_33__baggage_areaP33_4thruP33_6.htm)
b) Through seat ribs to tail (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saRUrF2vtMI
c) Or enlarging the existing holes for the electrical runs
11. Additional door latching systems ( eg. http://www.planearound.com/
12. Aerial placements strengths and weaknesses or no troubles.
13. Brake and fuel lines, requiring replacement or good as is?
I appreciate all and any commentary as this is the point I feel will probably help the rest of the build move with a good deal of consistency and momentum.
I guess I like to see if I can get it all addressed in one swoop rather than trying on lots and lots of single questions. Hopefully this will be of benefit to others also.
Thanks to all in advance.
