Firewall Forward
Lycoming Engines, Installation Kits, Stainless Exhaust Systems, Vibration Mounts and Engine Bolt Sets.
An OEM agreement with Lycoming allows Van's to sell to RV builders factory new engines at prices far below list. This agreement specifies that engines may be sold only to those who have purchased a complete RV kit. The engine must be installed in that aircraft. Only one engine may be sold per RV kit. Seven engines are available: O-235-N2C 118hp, O-320-D1A 160hp, O-360-A1A 180hp, IO-360-M1B 180hp, IO-360-A1B6 200hp, the O-540-A4D5 250hp, and the IO-540-D4A5 260hp. They are equipped with SkyTech lightweight starters, 149 tooth ring gears, dual magnetos, carburetors (or Bendix fuel injection systems) and engine driven fuel pumps. They have provisions for vacuum pumps and prop governors, but these, along with alternators and exhaust systems must be supplied and installed by the builder. The O-320, (I)O-360 and (I)O-540 engines are set up for constant-speed propellers as delivered. The O-320 and (I)O-360 (180hp) may be converted for fixed pitch operation with the crankshaft plugs shown below. All engines from Van's stock are packaged with long term storage at extra cost. Engines with or without long term storage may be drop-shipped directly from Lycoming to builders. All international sales must have long term storage. Some engines are now available with Unison's Lasar Electronic Ignition System as original equipment (requires special timing light EA T-300 that can be purchased from Van's). The IO-360 180hp and the IO-360 200hp use the forward facing oil sump and injector body permitting the use of Van's "horizontal induction" cowl that does NOT require an external scoop on the lower cowl. ALL other engines have a vertical draft sump and carburetor that DO require the external scoop on the lower cowl as seen on most currently flying RVs, our RV-9A and our IO-540 powered RV-10. All of the engines listed below, except the O-235 N2C now have, as an additional feature, roller tappet lifters and camshafts as standard equipment. Lycoming Warranty: Builder has 2 years from date of shipment to activate the warranty. Warranty is activated when the warranty card is mailed in. This should be done when the engine is first run. If Lycoming does not receive the warranty card within 2 years, Lycoming will automatically initiate activation. The warranty covers 100% for the first year after activation and is prorated for an additional year after that.

This agreement specifies that engines may be sold only to those who have purchased a complete RV kit. The engine must be installed in that aircraft. Only one engine may be sold per RV kit. These engines are equipped with the same accessories as the certified engines (see certified engine description). The engines are built to the same standards as the certified Lycomings, but do not come with the certified airworthiness paperwork. Some countries may require this, so check local regulations before ordering. The XO-320, X(I)O-360 (180 or 200hp) and XIO-540 engines are set up for constant-speed propellers as delivered. The XO-320 and X(I)O-360 (180hp) engines may be converted for fixed pitch operation in the same manner as the Lycoming certified engines.

SlickSTART
Lycoming recommend that new (I)O-540 engines sold by Van's use the SlickSTART magneto booster system, which integrates solid state electronics with conventional ignition hardware to deliver optimum spark energy for improved engine starting under all operating conditions. SlickSTART delivers over 400% more spark energy during start than conventional impulse-coupled or retard breaker systems. This added energy enables the magnetos to fire partially fouled spark plugs, ignite less than optimum fuel mixtures, improve hot engine restarts, and improve starting performance during extreme cold weather operations. SlickSTART is also approved for use with Slick impulse-coupled magnetos to enhance engine starting performance. Must Be Used With Slick 4200, 6200, 4300, 6300 Series Magnetos.

MAKE IT EASY OK, you've finished all that metal stuff on the empennage, wings and fuselage. Now it's time to hang the engine! You've got a choice: you can research, choose, order and install each piece of the engine installation separately. There's the baffles, the cable brackets, the oil cooler, the cable controls, the exhaust system, the alternator, the solenoids, the air filter, the..well, you get the idea. Or, you can order Van's new Firewall Forward Kit. The kit includes virtually every component necessary to install the engine and make it fly. Not only all the big items are included, but the small, often overlooked, bits and pieces are there, too. For instance, all the fuel and oil hoses are included, professionally built and checked. The breather tube, often an afterthought, is ready to install. Order Van's Firewall Forward Kit for either a fixed-pitch installation, or buy the constant-speed installation which includes the propeller governor. SEE THE EXAMPLE LIST ON THE FOLLOWING PAGE. CAUTION: There are engine combinations that occur in the field that don't occur in the firewall forward kits listed below. An example is a "fuel injected 180hp vertical induction engine". For the closest fit for this particular engine you would use a carbureted version of our Firewall Forward Kits. Also, Superior makes a 180hp engine with fuel injection and a composite (plastic) forward facing sump. If you have one of these engines your closest fitting Firewall Forward Kit would be one for the Lycoming IO-360M1B with the following corrections: 1. Delete: throttle and mixture cables (required lengths to be customer determined). 2. Delete: exhaust system (included system is for Lycoming only). 3. Add exhaust system: RV-8 add: EA EXH RV-8 SUPERIOR, RV-8A add: EA EXH RV-8A SUPERIOR. RV-7/7A add: EA EXH 7/7A SUPERIOR. None of the firewall forward kits are designed for the CONICAL style engine mounts. If you have one of these engines be sure to inquire about the necessary changes. PLEASE if you have any doubt about your engine applicability CALL FIRST. RV-6/6A builders can also use the RV-7/7A kits with minimal modification. Order part number "FF-6/6A ADDITIONS" which contains the additional parts and drawings needed to modify the RV-7/7A kits to work on RV-6/6A's. The RV-10 Firewall Forward Kits on the following page can be ordered with or without a three lever throttle/prop/mixture quadrant part number "CT10-3". If you opt for the NON three lever quadrant, your engine control cables will be supplied as vernier style.

The "EA DYNA VI-STD" and "EA DYNA VIAEROBATIC" fit Van's standard large cup Dynafocal engine mount. Priced per pair. NOTE that four pairs are required for one engine installation! Two types available: standard and aerobatic. Aerobatic is stiffer and allows less deflection of the engine under G loads, but transmits more vibration to the airframe. Unless you intend competition style aerobatics, we recommend the standard. Does not come with bolts so you must order in addition part number: "EA DYNA BOLT". The "EA CON VIBRATION ISO" is the Conical engine vibration mount. Adapts Van's CONICAL engine mounts to the older conical Lycoming engines. These are a very high quaility model that transmits the least possible vibration to the airframe. Priced per pair. NOTE that four pairs are required for one engine installation!

A fast airplane with a cool engine requires good engine baffling to direct the right amount of air to the right place. This kit will save many hours of work and lots of wasted aluminum, while producing excellent results. Includes pre-bent aluminum baffles, cowl air seal material, all hardware and instructions. If you're the type who just has to do everything from scratch, you can order just the baffle plans and form your own material. The cowl air seal material is good, but it doesn't last forever; you can purchase replacement air seal fabric.

Propeller Basics
Traditionally, RVs have used wooden fixed pitch propellers. These are available direct from the manufacturer (a partial list is included in the Builders Manual) and have given excellent service. They are light, reasonably priced and smooth running. They also offer a measure of protection to the engine in the unlikely event of a prop strike: the prop shatters, but usually leaves the much more expensive engine unhurt. However, wooden propellers require constant attention to bolt torque and blade condition. They are prone to damage if flown in rain or operated on gravel. To overcome the drawbacks of wood props, many builders have expressed an interest in fixed pitch metal propellers. Previously, Van's recommended against this, because there was no metal prop that could be repitched to handle the speed of an RV without exceeding the twist or pitch limits established by the manufacturer. Several accidents in high speed homebuilts have been traced to propeller blade failure in repitched props. The Sensenich Propeller Company has designed a fixed-pitch metal prop specially for high-speed homebuilts like the RV. On the plus side, this prop is quite efficient and very low maintenance. On the debit side, it is more expensive than a wood prop. An increasing number of airplanes are being equipped with constant-speed units. With a constant-speed, the engine can develop full power on take-off and climb, increasing performance considerably. Cruise speed increases only slightly, but fuel efficiency is improved. There is no doubt that a constant-speed prop is more efficient and flexible than a fixed pitch, but this is balanced by the dramatically greater expense and complexity. Choosing a propeller is a series of compromises. The 'correct' prop depends on many factors.
Because the metal prop is not as thick as the typical wood prop, a different spinner front plate is required.
S-403 SEN S-605 SEN Spinner bulkhead for RV-3 or 4 with fixed pitch cowl (4" prop ext). Spinner bulkhead for all 13" spinners ( ALL OTHER ACFT ) $ $ 32.00 55.00
The Sensenich metal propellers we sell were developed specifically for the RV series and are the ONLY fixed pitch metal propellers approved by Van's Aircraft, Inc. for use on RV aircraft. Propellers from production aircraft are not suitable, and unfortunate experience has shown that modified production propellers can fail without warning with deadly consequences. Because the metal prop is not as thick as the typical wood prop, a different spinner front plate is required. NOTE: 70CM (150/160 HP) PROPELLERS ARE LIMITED TO MAXIMUM 2600 RPM Use the charts below to choose the proper propeller. Start by determining the length of crankshaft spacer required by the cowl in your Finish Kit. Kits shipped since late 1993 include the short cowl (shown on the packing list or inventory sheet as C/S) which uses a 2-1/4" extension. Prior to 1993, cowls for fixed pitch props used long cowls (shown on the packing list or inventory sheet as Fixed Pitch or FP). This uses a 4" spacer. You must also choose the diameter of the prop bolts required by your engine, and the horsepower rating of your engine. New 160 hp engines from Van's use 7/16" bolts, new 180 hp engines use " bolts. Prop pitch recommendations (in parentheses on the chart below) are based on cruise speeds for RVs equipped with gearleg fairings, landing gear intersection fairings and Van's Pressure Recovery (PR) wheel fairings. Cruise speeds for RVs with older wheel fairings (narrow cross-section w/ brake blisters) will be 5-6 mph slower and require a prop with approximately 2" less pitch. A rule of thumb: 1" of pitch change equals about 25 rpm static and about 30-40 rpm at full throttle cruise. Here's how to decode the part numbers: PROP 70CM7S9-0 (81) means: 70 = design diameter in inches, CM = designator for O-320, 7 = bolt diameter in 16ths of an inch, S = requires crank spacer, 9 = length of spacer in 1/4s of an inch, 0=full length blade (not cut down) (81) = pitch in inches. This prop is suitable for a 150 hp RV-3 or a 160 hp RV-4, using a 2-1/4" spacer and requiring 7/16" crank bolts. Price includes extension and mounting bolts.
Currently the The Sensenich metal propellers for the O-360 that have part numbers starting with PROP 72FM8S(xx-x) are NOT CERTIFIED, and are considered an EXPERIMENTAL prop. The Sensenich metal propellers for ALL of the O-320's ARE CERTIFIED propellers.

MT Propellers
Constant Speed 2-Blade and 3-Blade Models
MT propellers are manufactured by MT-Propeller Entwickling Gmbh of Alting, Germany. They are used on many certified and experimental airplanes all over the world. MT propellers blades feature a compressed beechwood core, wrapped in two layers of composite/fiberglass. A stainless steel inset in the leading edge of the blade protects against erosion. Hubs are machined from high quality aluminum. Propellers include a kevlar spinner assembly. Pitch change is accomplished by either an electric or a hydraulic system. The hydraulic system is preferred, because the pitch change is about 6 times faster than the electric. However, if your engine is not compatible with a hydraulic system, the electric constant-speed gives you an alternative. Electric props are NOT recommended for aerobatics. Both two-blade and threeblade models are available, with either electric or hydraulic pitch change. Blades are white with red tips. All MT hydraulic propellers work with governors sold by Van's. Van's Aircraft, Inc. has not had the opportunity to test all MT models, so it is up to the customer to determine the proper propeller for his/her engine and aircraft. Please see the MT PROPELLER ORDER FORM for Weights w/spinner and additional details. MT PROPS FOR THE LYCOMING (I)O-320 150/160 hp and the (I)O-360 180/200 hp are listed below. The 3 blade hydraulic and 3 blade electric MT propellers have a restricted operation range when used on the Lycoming O-360A1A engine. The restriction is: "no continuous operation between 2050 - 2300 rpm".

Van's Aircraft has an OEM agreement with the Hartzell Propeller Company which enables us to offer brand new constant-speed propellers for RV aircraft. This agreement requires that propellers purchased from Van's be used in RVs. These props weigh 50 to 55 lbs. They require a constant-speed cowl unless noted otherwise. Since mid 1994, this has been the standard cowl shipped with all kits. These props go to a flat pitch (take-off position) with no oil pressure and go to maximum pitch with maximum control pressure which is supplied by an engine driven prop governor. The recently developed "blended airfoil" propellers from Hartzell are designated as "C2YR"'s while the older style "paddle blade" propellers are designated "C2YK" and "C2YL". The propellers with a 74" blade diameter are applicable to the "A" or tricycle gear aircraft except on the RV-8, while the 72" blade diameters are recommended for the tailwheel aircraft due specifically to ground clearance issues. No testing has been done that suggests any performance difference between the 72" and 74" propellers.

Prop Governors
Constant-Speed Props Require an Engine Mounted Governor
Constant-speed propellers require an engine mounted governor to control RPM. New engines from Van's have a governor drive and mounting pad, but do not include the governor. There are three brands of governors in general use in the aircraft industry: McCauley, Woodward and the MT (German manufacture). The MT is a recently offered unit from Van's that is very high quality and lighter in weight than either of the other brands and less expensive. Van's also has the control cable attach brackets specifically for each unit. For McCauley, or Woodward order: VA-153-PC For MT order: VA-183-PC

Propeller Bolts
Used to Mount Wood Propellers
Includes washers and self-locking nuts. Length based on typical prop thickness of 4-3/8" - 4-1/2". There are two styles of prop extensions and each style requires a different type of prop bolt. The 4" spool extension uses a 3/8" bolt with an O-320 or a 1/2" bolt with an O-360 engine. The 2-1/4" cylindrical extension uses a bolt through the crush plate, prop, extension and into the engine crank flange. Not available in 3/8". If your crank requires 3/8", the bushings must be replaced with 7/16" bushings (not available in this catalog). The O-360 uses 1/2". Priced as a set of six.

Propeller Extensions
Prop Extensions for Wood Props
Prop extensions come in two styles, depending on the vintage of cowl used. The pre-1994 cowls require a 4" 'spool' style extension while the post-1994 cowl, also known as the 'constant-speed' cowl or 'short' cowl uses a 2-1/4" 'cylindrical' style extension for fixed pitch operation. The part numbers below are for the 2-1/4" Cylindrical. The 4" 'Spool' type extensions are not stocked. Call for availability. Over the years it has become evident that a 6" diameter interface between the metal extension and the wood prop is marginal and we have started using a 7" interface with the wood. This is especially true for the O-320 and the O-360 engines.

Propeller Extensions
Deluxe Extensions for Wood Propellers
This series of propeller extensions are specifically designed for all currently manufactured RV kit aircraft cowls. The extension length is 2 " and it is 7" in diameter. The design incorporates dual 6 bolt patterns, one pattern for the extension/crankshaft bolts and one pattern for the propeller/extension bolts. The purchaser should select the extension based on the bolt diameter in the crankshaft lugs in his engine. All of these extensions come with the bolts and washers for installation on the engine, but not the propeller bolts. The lugs provided for the propeller bolts are threaded so no nuts are required. The builder will choose the prop bolts and washers based on the thickness of their wood propeller hub.

Crush Plate
Crush Plate for Wood Props
Wood props require a large washer under the heads of the prop bolts to keep the bolts from damaging the prop. This washer is called a crush plate and actually performs a function of clamping the prop between the crush plate and the extension. There are two style of crush plates. The newer cylindrical style extension uses the PCP-320/360X7" which works with either the O-320 or O-360 engine. The 4" spool extension uses a different style crush plate that retains the bolt heads, not allowing them to rotate.

Spacer
Crush Plate Spacers for Proper Spinner Bulkhead Spacing
Wood props from different manufacturers vary. If yours is thinner, you may need a spacer between the prop face and the front plate of the spinner to position the plate correctly. This spacer is 1/8" thick, 7" diameter. May be used with 4" or 2-1/4" extension and any engine.

Control Cables
Vernier and Quadrant Style Control Cables, several sizes, styles, and applications. Engine control cables are available in vernier and push-pull styles. Several different lengths are available so try to measure your application before ordering. Routing will make a difference. The length of the cable is measured from tip-to-tip on the quadrant cables (CT Q-XX) or from the mounting surface of the vernier style cable (CT V-XX) to the tip of the cable when the control is in the forward position. All cables are "bulkhead mounted". This means the outer sheathing is captured on each end with nuts. A swivel of about 15 degrees allows the ends to flex without wearing the cable.
Quadrant Cables

Calibrated during initial filling in 2 gallon increments to correct for sender position for very accurate fuel level readings. Available for either resistive or capacitive senders. The resistive fuel system (IE FL-2R) requires float type senders: (IE F-385B and IE F-385C). The Capacitive system uses capacitive probes built into the tanks during construction. When ordering the fuel gauge (IE FL-2C) you must also order two convertors (IE P-300C). The capactive system is not available on QuickBuild models.

Optional oil pressure switch can be wired to run Hour Meter and illuminate a panel light if the oil pressure drops below 15 psi. Besides being a monitor should you loose oil pressure, this effectively works as a warning to turn the Master Switch off when the engine shuts down provided a large enough red light is mounted on the panel.

Van's Aircraft now offers the complete line of TruTrak autopilots to our customers. TruTrak serves the experimental aircraft market with the broadest autopilot product line and the most features available. Software solutions to flight control and user interface combined with modern surface-mount electronics, solid-state gyros, and digital servo actuators makes these the most reliable and smallest units possible. All of the autopilots listed below are designed to be either installed during kit construction or retrofit in flying aircraft. Some builders have requested we supply the "servos only" to simplify the installation during construction and possibly save initial cost. However, due to the ease of installation in completed aircraft, we have decided not to offer the "servos only" option but instead will make available only the complete units. All electro-mechanical devices "age" and because of the rapidity of advances in technology in this arena, we strongly advise that you do not purchase too far in advance of use.
FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS
Digitrak
Autopilot
The Digitrak with its 2" face is a single-servo autopilot with a built-in means of selecting a drift-free direction of flight. Direction is based on GPS, but does not require programming the GPS for a given course as is the case when the CDI is being followed. With GPS present, the three-digit display shows selected direction when flying straight. When in a turn, either when the autopilot is on or when the pilot is in control; the display shows the digital DG. The arrow buttons enable the selected direction to be adjusted in one-degree steps. When a button is held down for more than one second and released, the aircraft enters a turn which can be stopped by pressing the opposite button when the desired new direction is reached. If GPS is lost, the Digitrak will lock on to magnetic direction when engaged, but the direction is not displayed. Special Order Item 100% deposit required when item is ordered.

Altrak
Stand Alone Altitude Hold
Altrak is a stand alone altitude hold. It can be used either alone or in conjuction with any wing leveler to provide two axis atuopilot functionality. It is equal to or better than the altitude hold within any other aftermarket autopilot available today. Altrak does not require any panel space other than the engage/disengage push button. Push the button to engage, push it again to disengage. Once engaged, an LED in the switch will indicate that the unit is engaged. The standard Altrak will flash the LED in the engage button if the altitude gets off by approximately 25 feet, fast flash for low and slow flash for high. Order IF ALTRAK. Also available, is a trim sensing servo for an additional cost which will sense the need for trim before the system begins to loose or gain altitude. This is enunciated with the same flashing of the LED. The trim sensing servo is not necessary for Altrak to work properly, but some may want the added function that the trim sensing servo will give. For the Altrak with the trim sensing servo order IF ALTRAK TS. Special Order Item 100% deposit required when item is ordered.

Airspeed Indicators
Many Different Styles, Sizes, Manufacturers. Airspeed indicators come in 3-1/8 inch and 2-1/4 inch format. There are airspeed indicators and true airspeed indicators that allow you to enter the outside air temperature and the altitude, thereby indicating the TRUE airspeed. Most airspeed indicators have range markings with flap speeds (white), structural cruise speeds (green), maneuvering speed (blue), smooth air cruise speed (yellow) and Vne (red line). Some have internal lighting. Different aircraft have different speeds, so be sure and select the one for your aircraft.

Introduction to Avionics
Van's has arrangements with several major manufacturers of avionics. The items shown here have proven the most popular with RV builders, but are no means the only ones available. We can usually supply any item in a manufacturer's line, given enough warning. New technologies and demands mean that products and prices are constantly changing. Because avionics is not our major business, we keep only a small stock on hand, and depend on manufacturers to supply us in a timely manner when we make an order. Usually they do, but if there is some surge in demand or a manufacturing/business problem, it can take several weeks to receive products. CALL US FOR CURRENT PRICES AND LEAD TIMES ON AVIONICS

Garmin's new GMA 340 audio panel meets the needs of aircraft owners and operators who require reliability and versatility in the essential audio switching function. The GMA 340 features innovative LED-illuminated push button controls that allow audio selection of both NAV and Comm audio. Large buttons activate the Comm microphone and audios for up to three Comm transceivers to simplify cockpit workload. Another feature of the GMA 340 is the Split Comm, which allows the pilot to transmit/receive on Comm 1 and the co-pilot to transmit/receive on Comm 2. MASQ processing reduces ambient noise from the avionics inputs. Comm transmit indication is also provided. Speaker selection is available to monitor the aircraft radios or to make PA announcements. There are two unswitched inputs for telephone ringers, altitude alert warnings, or other warning tones. In addition, the GMA 340 includes a six-place VOX intercom with three selectable modes of isolation, dual stereo music inputs, and independent pilot, co-pilot, and passenger volume control. Each microphone input has a dedicated VOX circuit to ensure that only the active microphone is heard when squelch is broken. Special cabin noise de-emphasis circuitry enhances cockpit communications. Also standard is the three-light Marker Beacon Receiver/Indicator with high/low sensitivity selection and SmartMute marker audio muting. Surface mount technology provides shallow depth and light weight, which simplifies installation in the tightest aircraft spaces and saves precious panel space.

GNS-430
GPS/Nav/Com
The GNS 430, designed as the first in a line of new aviation products, is an equally versatile panel-mounted companion to the GNS 530. It is a WAAS-upgradeable IFR GPS, Com, VOR, LOC, and glide-slope with color moving map in one multipurpose unit. The TSO'd VHF Com offers a choice of 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz spacing for 760- or 3040-channel configuration respectively. A huge Jeppesen database (that can be updated with a front-loading data card) contains all airports, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, FSS, Approach, DPs/STARs, and SUA information. The GNS 430 makes practical use of this information with features like intelligent frequency nomination. Many boxes offer some of the same features as the GNS 430, but it's the integration of so many functions that sets this aviation product apart. The map features a built-in all-land database that shows cities, highways, railroads, rivers, lakes and coastlines, in addition to a Jeppesen database in bright colors. Thanks to the high-contrast color display, the information can be easily read from wide viewing angles even in direct sunlight. The GNS 430 combines all the navigation capabilities necessary today with all known and defined technologies of the future. This unit has a 10 watt transmitter. Sold WITH pre-fabricated wiring harness.

GPS/Nav/Com
The GNS 530 represents the single biggest idea in integrated avionics in years. Traditionally, it would take a host of components to provide the capabilities represented in this one sophisticated box. It is a WAASupgradeable IFR GPS, Com, VOR, LOC and glide-slope with color moving map all rolled into one. A TSO'd VHF Com offers a choice of 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz spacing for 760- or 3040-channel configuration respectively. A huge Jeppesen database (that can be updated with a front-loading data card) contains all airports, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, FSS, Approach, DPs/STARs and SUA information. The GNS 530 makes practical use of this information with features like intelligent frequency nomination. The brilliant colors of the GNS 530's 5-inch display make the pilot-critical information easy to read and interpret. Thanks to a high-contrast color display, the information can be easily read from wide viewing angles even in direct sunlight. It's especially true of the 530's basemap. Pilots will enjoy enhanced situational awareness by seeing their position relative to cities, highways, railroads, rivers, lakes, and coastlines. But even more important, the appropriate use of color separates land data, terminal areas, route, and approach information for easy pilot scanning and reduced pilot workload. Simply put, the GNS 530 incorporates advanced procedure types usually found only in high-end FMS systems. The GNS 530 has plenty of growth potential as there are reasonably priced upgrade paths for WAAS-compatibility, TAWS, and Terrain awareness. This unit has a 10 watt transmitter.

Cowl plugs are designed to fit the air intakes of your RV. The plugs fit snugly into each intake (and the scoop, if present), and provide protection against the elements and bird/rodent nesting. Each set of plugs is manufactured from high quality, marine grade vinyl and bonded nylon thread for the stitching and front piping of the plugs. Linking nylon lanyards are attached to all plugs, and a "remove before flight" flag is attached to the lanyard between the right and left plugs. As an added safety feature, two bright red visibility flags are connected to each plug, which can be seen from the cockpit, and the linking lanyards are made to go over a prop blade, which will eject the plugs if overlooked on the preflight.

Electric elevator trim can be added to most elevators (except the RV-3). This removes the trim cable from the cockpit. Usually installed during initial construction, but with careful work may be retro-fitted to finished aircraft. A small servo (ES MSTS-8A) mounted in the elevator moves the standard trim tab. Elevator must be rebalanced after installation. Weighs about the same as manual trim, but may move the cg slightly aft. Trim works best when controlled from the stick grips (GRIP 1" MASTER LEFT (or RIGHT)) above. In addition, a servo relay deck (ES MSTS SRD) is needed when used with the GRIPS and possibly a servo speed control (ES MSTS-SSC) unit. Kits include all hardware and servo system.

Kits are usually ordered with the Fuselage Kit, but are easily fitted to the finished aircraft. A real convenience for cross-country flying, trimming out uneven fuel burns, etc. Simple light springs connect to the aileron controls, unnoticeable through the stick. Installs entirely within the cabin. No need to remove wings or ailerons. Small lever mounts on the stick (RV-3,4), between the seats. The manual aileron trim mechanism on the RV-8/8A is a sidewall mounted adjustment to the left of the pilot's seat. It is a spring bias system that manually applies trim forces directly to the control column. RV-7/7A,9/9A is the same however, it mounts between the pilot and passenger's seats. This kit is NOT intended to compensate for aircraft with rigging problems. See Chapter 15 of Construction Manual to balance aircraft prior to installing trim.

F FUEL TANK PU W /SCRN Rigid fuel pick-up tube $ 15.00
Beautifully crafted valves made by RV (and Airbus component) builder Andy Phillips. Lifetime materials, compatible with all fuels. The FS20x7T valve has a 90 degree swing and a positive "lift and turn" feature to prevent inadvertently selecting the off position. 90 degree AN6 elbows are installed to facilitate typical RV installations. The FS20x20-3 valve has the same features but is a dual valve with 180 degree swing, 3/8 NPT ports for fuel supply and NPT ports for fuel return to the selected tank. Usually used with automotive engines that require fuel return to the tank, not required for typical aircraft fuel injection systems. Kit supplied fuel selector valve was redesignated in the early 90's as a brass-on-nylon valve with smooth non-binding operation. This 4 port valve can be plumbed for either 90 degree or 180 degree tank selection. If your valve is stiff and hard to turn, we recommend replacing it before the fan on the front of the aircraft quits turning due to fuel starvation and you start sweating while trying to turn the valve selecting the tank with fuel in it. Optional Fuel Valve Selector Levers Part number FUEL VALVE LEVER Replacement for stock lever on fuel valves supplied in kits. Keyed so it will work only on valves that use the long arm of the lever as a pointer. Will not work on valves installed prior to 2000 that typically use the small pointer on the lever to indicate the tank in use. Red Anodized finish. Part number FUEL VALVE LEVER II Replacement for stock handle on fuel valves supplied in kits. Pointer direction can be set to work with any vintage installation. Red Anodized finish. If you use the Airflow Performance fuel pump AND an Andair fuel selector, the "F Swivel Tee" AN6 size fitting makes plumbing the return line from the pump to the valve easy. See the F Swivel Tee in the Hardware Section.

Lighting Considerations
Lighting is a major decision that should be made at the time of ordering the first kit, the empennage. It is not required, at least for day VFR flight, to equip your RV with lights. Airplanes without them are lighter, simpler and less expensive. For those who would like the option of flying at night, or wish to make themselves more visible, Van's offers several options. These include position and anti-collision light systems manufactured by Whelen Engineering, leaders in aviation lighting for many years. There are also landing and taxi lights, and several different ways to mount position lights on the wingtips. We don't think any one is best--best is the system that does what you want it to... Builders of the RV-7/7A, RV-8/8A, RV-9/9A and RV-10 aircraft must use Lighting SYSTEM 6. The A600 lamp includes colored wingtip, aft-facing white position lights and a strobe. This system is mounted on the external surface of the wing and meets all of the requirements for position and anti-collision lighting for the old style flat top wing tips only. The A650 contains the colored wingtip position light and a strobe, but the aft-facing white light must be mounted on the tail. The A650 lamp assembly can be mounted externally on the wingtip, or mounted within an enclosure on the wingtip.

ROUND lighting system Standard lighting kits: RECTANGULAR: LL DW-01 & LL DW-09 This kit includes a formed lens, aluminum parts, lamp, hardware and computer generated drawings and templates. Installs through a hole in leading edge, so it is easily retrofitted to a finished wing. Adjustable at installation to either taxi or landing angle. Many builders put one in each wing. This lamp uses a RECTANGULAR reflector and readily available automotive headlamp bulbs.
Advanced lighting kits: HID: LL HIDW-01 RV-4/6/7/8, LL HIDW-01 RV-9 ONLY & LL HIDW-10 RV-10 ONLY The HID or "High Intensity Discharge" light system mounts in our standard, lightweight, easily adjustable mount, using a new retaining bracket. The primary benefit to this light is the incredible amount of light it puts-out. See the photo above of an HID and Halogen light on an RV-6. Notice the intensity of the HID Lamp! Features: Round reflector with an attached glass lens. Standard "Aircraft Landing Light (PAR-36)" form factor. 'Lifetime' HID bulb (no filament to burn-out). System comes with warranty. Extremely bright, white light Significantly less power consumption, just 35 watts (3a). Less heat generation Increased ground/taxi visibility
Notes: This lamp will add approximately 2 pounds to aircraft. HID is NOT compatible with 'Flasher' devices. 'Flashing' the lamp will cause premature failure. ROUND: LL DW-02 RV-4/6/7/8 & LL DW-02 RV-9 ONLY The ROUND lighting system is a 100w Halogen bulb in a 4-inch "PAR 36" reflector. This light is the same reflector as the HID but with a low-cost Halogen bulb. Some builders have expressed the desire for a round light, and this is a good opportunity to offer one. This light will provide some increase in light output and coverage over the standard RECTANGULAR light.

Alternator Monitor
Warning Light
This is a simple but effective warning light designed to monitor alternator operation. This unit will automatically light when the aircraft system voltage drops below 13 VDC. Circumstances that might produce this are a failed/failing alternator, a circuit overload, or a master switch left on after shutdown. The unit flashes for 30 seconds then goes to constant illumination when voltage drops below 13 volts. This feature sets it apart from other annunciators. The flashing draws attention to the condition then remains illuminated so as not to be a pilot distraction thereafter. The LED indicator light is remote from the main circuit board unit and requires only 0.8" sq. of panel real estate. Main circuit board unit can be located at any convenient spot behind the panel. Installation instructions, drill template and attachment materials are included. An ideal alert for the absentminded!

Wiring Kits
Several Wiring Harness Kits Available to Suit Your Skill/Creativity
Van's Aircraft has several wiring options for our kit builders: A raw materials wiring kit: ES EWC-KIT A kit for the builder who wishes to wire his own kit from scratch. The kit includes a variety of lengths of Tefzel wire (268') and suitable connectors, heat shrink tubing, nylon ties, terminal boots, etc. There is even a basic wiring schematic. Two place wiring harness kits: ES WH 6/7/9 KIT, ES WH-8 FWD or AFT These are actual finished wiring harnesses for the various RV's. These harnesses have all wire precut to length and terminals installed. It looks like a giant nervous system! It is intended to be the simplest and quickest way to install the routine necessary wiring. These are custom to the specific aircraft and are the BEST BUY for the builder. It includes installation directions and drawings. This system is designed to be easily modified/upgraded to meet the builder's specific requirements. Assorted circuit breaker switches for above kits: ES WH-SW A good buy in the generally needed circuit breakers and circuit breaker switches (10 INCLUDED) most often used with the above harnesses. 1 CB 1648-009-060 Specifically: 4 ES PBB-10 2 ES PBB-5

Electric flaps can be controlled through a switch in the stick grip. However the switch to perform this operation is usually too large to fit in the grip. This circuit board allows the builder to use a small switch in the grip to control the board and the board then drives the flap motor. Similar in function to the electric trim servo relay deck. Not required when using the panel mounted flap switch provided in the flap kit.

Electric trim requires the use of a small motor, a switch, interconnect wire and in some cases a special purpose relay and a speed controller to slow the response if desired. The servo motor is supplied with a switch which can be mounted on the panel or arm rest. While this works, in rough weather when the aircraft is bouncing around, exact trim may be hard to achieve.

Eventually you will look out on your wing just after take-off and notice that the tab on the fuel cap is sticking up because you failed to push it down. That is if you are lucky. If not so lucky, it will have rolled off the wing because you forgot to put it in the tank after refueling. Don't ask me how I know this little bit of wisdom! The O-rings and stem seals around the fuel caps and cap center shafts don't last forever. When they wear, water may leak in with nasty results. Two styles of O-rings have been supplied in RV kits. They are not interchangeable. They are easily identified by color: older O-rings are black, newer ones are brown. The brown O-rings are generally auto fuel resistant, but their tolerance for the newer oxygenated auto fuels is unknown. The older (black) O-rings are no longer available. Upgrading to the newer O-rings requires replacing the fuel cap. New fuel caps with brown O-rings are available and fit all the receptacles installed in the tanks.

If you intend to perform "sustained" inverted flight in your RV then you will need to purchase and install a "flop tube" in at least one of the fuel tanks. Your engine will also require an inverted oil system as well as fuel injection. Choose IF-3F for the RV-3 fuselage tank, the IF-3W for RV-3 wing tank. RV-4, RV-6/6A, RV-7/7A, RV-8/8A use IF-4/6. Includes the brass weight for the end of the hose. Does not apply to the RV-9/9A or RV-10.

RVator Newsletter
Van's Aircraft, Inc.'s Company Publication - 6 Issues Per Year
Published six times a year, the RVator is Van's company publication. It is not quite a full magazine, but it is much more than the average company "newsletter." It is the main method of communication between the company and its customers. Since the RVator contains no display advertising, the usual 20-page issue contains information equal to about 40 or 50 pages of the average magazine. It contains news about new products and developments at Van's and experiences from builders all over the world. Regular features include building tips and thoughtful articles on flying proficiency and safety, written by people with lots of RV experience. In every issue, the "First Flights" and the famous "RV Grin" columns remind those still building that the end is in sightand worth all the work. Most RV builders consider the RVator a necessity. Many people building other kit aircraft subscribe, too.

BICYCLES ? Have you ever wondered why the Wright brothers were into both airplanes and bicycles? They are both modes of transportation that reflect personal individualism. Both share structural and mechanical aspects that include component level quality, structural weight considerations, comfort and safety considerations, and best of all fun. Add to this the health benefits of bicycling and you can enjoy the best of both worlds. The Recumbent Bicycle is a definitive work on what may be one of the most underrated bicycle designs. Gunnar Fehlau, in this book, provides both the history and a promotion of the recumbent bicycle as a comfortable, innovative, fast, safe, and fun product. Paperback Book.

Oops Rivets
Small Head Rivets
These rivets are used to replace drilled out rivets where the hole may have been oversized. Typically the head on these rivets is smaller than the normal AN426 rivet, so an oversized AD3 hole can be opened to an AD4 size and the head will be similar to the original rivet.

Hinge for various projects. The AN257 hinge comes in varying widths and uses the SSP-090 hinge pin. The HINGE PIANO typically uses the SSP-120 pin. This hinge also uses the undersize SSP-090 pin for the radius around the top of the firewall/cowling interface. The latest addition is the 063 hinge and is used on the fiberglass gear leg fairings. The MS20001-4 hinge is an extruded hinge. This is typically used in high vibration areas where loop fatigue is prevalent. The SSP is stainless steel hinge pin and comes in three diameters: 0.063", 0.090" and 0.120".

Van's is a supplier of Aeroquip hose and fittings. These components allow you to custom make quality hoses for your fuel system [3/8" hose]; your oil system [1/2" hose]; and pressure transducers and flex brake lines [1/4"]. These components are specified from -65F to +300F and operating pressures up to 1000psi. Instruction for fabrication of hoses included. Additional tool and special mandrels are not required other than normal wrenches.
HARDWARE
To fabricate your hose, just order one fitting of the appropriate size for each end. The right angle fitting has about a 1" radius. Then order the desired length of hose. The hose can be cut to final size with a hacksaw or an abrasive disk like the type provided to cut the canopy. From there, just follow the instructions provided. The firesleeve only needs to be used on the 3/8" fuel lines. These hoses retain their flexibility over a long period. The liner is unaffected by alcohols, coolants and solvents commonly used in aerospace systems. Compatible with nearly all petroleum based oils, aviation gas, JP fuels, Skydrol, and synthetic based fluids. A stainless steel wire braid protects the hose from abrasion. Hose tool (on page 112) greatly simplifies assembly of steel braided hoses. Fits -4 (1/4"), -6 (3/8") and -8 (1/2") sizes.
