Hi All,
I'm installing the static system in my RV-14. Page 10-22, Figure 1 directs using two SD-12-BSLF rivets for the static ports. The included but separate Static Air Kit uses two SD-42-BSLF rivets as static ports. Anyone know why the difference? Does it matter? What's the difference between the two rivets?
Also wondering if anyone is partially vs fully setting the rivet before driving out the mandrels? The plans make no mention of partially setting it but guys on other (but years older threads) are mentioning it. I know there are other options as well like Van's $19 Static Kit with threaded ports.
I appreciate everyone's time.
Cheers,
Scott
