April 28, 2023 - RV-10 Build
|
|
I haven't posted about the RV-10 project in awhile. Quite a bit has been done.
The engine mount and landing gear are one. Brake lines are run.
|

 |
|
|
A good look at one of the wheels, brakes and brake line. Also, notice the two Comm bent-whip antennas are installed.
|
| |
 |
|
| Elevator push-rod mechanism in place. Also the pitch and yaw autopilot servos. |
| |
 |
|
| Rich and Nhu-An spent all winter mounting the avionics and VPX powerbox behind the panel and wiring it all up. |
| |
 |
|
|
The forward upper fuselage on the airframe.
|
| |
 |
|
| From another angle. Yes, lots of wires. All labelled, of course. |
| |
 |
|
| One of the GPS antennas mounted on the after upper fuselage. |
| |
 |
|
| The center-upper-consule glued to the cabin cover. |
| |
 |
|
|
Gradually mounting things to the firewall: the Starter Contactoer and Monkworkx backup alternator regulator.
|
| |
 |
|
| |
| |
 |
|
|
The passenger bottom floorboards riveted in and protected with cardboard.
|
| |
 |
|
| The Battery Contactor is mounted on the battery box behind the baggage area. The big 4 awg wire runs from the battery contactor up to the starter contactor on the firewall. |
| |
 |
|
| A little messy at present behind and under the panel. That red retangular box just right of center is the Vertical Power VP-X electronic circuit breaker system. |
