Hi,
This community has been so great. Every time I post a problem I get a lot of great answers. Anyway, here is my latest question.
I am a new owner of an RV6. I didn't build it and I have very little maintenance skills. Anyway, my RV6 has 600 hrs on the O 320 engine. I have logged about 50 hours in it. When I'm in cruise under almost all power settings, the aircraft/engine has a moderate constant vibration. It is not outrageous, but it is moderate enough that you can see my hand vibrating while holding the stick constantly. My feet really feel the vibrations when placed on the rudder pedals. As far as I know, these vibrations have always been there but since I am just getting to learn the aircraft, I'm not sure if it is a common thing with RVs or if it's something out of the ordinary. Please advise.
Steve
