I just added two of the rear RV-10 vents to my RV-4.
They work great at low speeds. I am wondering if it is OK to use them at cruise speed. The air comes in so hard it makes me worry that something might bend or break.
Are these good for 170+mph?
The front vent is in .040 sheet, while the rear is in .032.
What is the thickness of the rear fuse sides in a -10?
Do -10 passengers leave them full open at cruise speed?
Thanks
