G'day mates from sunny Australia,
This is my first week on the list and my first post and I've read and learnt a lot awaits me as I progress from my empennage kit.
I have been reading about static discharger wick installations on other RV models and as yet have found no information or references regrading the installation of discharger wicks on 10's. Is there anyone out there who has or plans to install discharger static wicks on their 10 please, I'd love to hear from you and your thoughts/plans.
Regards

Patrick, thanks for joining the list. The archives would be a great source including one posters recommendation for discharge placements.

I'm incorporating them on my -10 only because the original builder started with them. I've got one on the top of the rudder, one towards the outboard tip of each elevator and probably a couple per aileron. Not sure if the flaps will have any yet or not. The wicks I have are easily removeable with just 2 small bolts so I'll probably leave them off most of the time so as to save my eyes a few pokings. Also, don't forget that you should probably use bonding straps on your hinges also.

What’s the consensus for the builders? Static wicks or not? Can they be added relatively easy later on? I have been told the F-16 uses a conductive adhesive.

Conductive paints help a lot on composite skins like radomes and leading edge wing surfaces. With metal aircraft the dissipation is best done with wicks.
Will be using them on trailing edges. YES, and they will be removable for static display at Airshows.
