Revised RV-10

[Michael Wellenzohn]

In an kitplane article they write about Van’s was also showing a heavily revised RV-10, the actual first prototype, at the show… does anyone has more insight what changes have been introduced?

What I noticed was a 3-blade prop, new Evoke paint job, and a bunch of interior options including much of the Aerosport lines and upgraded pedals. The fuel valve was not stock but not Andair.

They poured a bunch of money and effort into the interior, paint, and possibly the panel. Also they added a 3 blade prop and split the lower cowl into 2 halves for easier removal/installation around the 3 blade prop. The airplane now presents as a high end example of the type, rather than a somewhat plain and shopworn 20 year old prototype.
