  While building my RV10 tail kit, I came across several new ideas that many builders may be interested in.  The first part that I wanted to "improve" was the trim tab cable weldment.  I know the weldment included in the kit is OK, but I didn't like the "tack-weld" of the small nut.  I had my nephew Dave (Rivethead-Aero.com) make me up a new part that replaces that weldment.  It is made from 6061 aluminum billet and is set at the exact same angle as the steel weldment.   It rivets on with 4 rivets as the other part.  Dave said the aluminum part is three times stronger then Van's part.
 
  If you are interested in this part, let me know and I'll gask Dave to start pumping them out on his CNC.   I can also email you a picture of it if interested. 
 
     Also, if you are having problems cutting out the Horizontal Stab L brackets from the stock provided in the tail kit, again, Dave made me up 2 on the CNC.  He cut the 9 holes on the one side and the 2 on the other.  Needless to say, they lined up perfectly when mounted to the HS Stab spar.  I have pictures to email interested.

Zack, based on recent discussion on this board, I believe there are many
(myself included) that would be interested in the trim tab replacement
part, can you post a pic? or a link to one. If you don't have acces to a
web site, send me the pic and I'll put it up on mine with a link back to
the group.

Deems,
 
  Pics on the way to you to post.  Dave will post it to his site when he gets caught up on the CNC stuff he has going.
 
 
  Btw, he is also working on a hydro-formed one piece Trim Tab Access panel that will replace the existing one.  This Trim Tab Cover will have a "fairing" on it that is integral (one piece) with the Trim Tab Cover.  He will have one ready in a couple of weeks.  I'll post when it is finished.
 
 
Zack

Oh ya, we can keep him busy.  Tell him to expect many, many orders for the trim cable bracket, assuming they are reasonably priced.  Wink

These custom made parts are absolutely beautiful and no doubt much stronger.
The question that comes to mind is how strong do they need to be and if by
making them too strong are they putting too much stress on a different area.
These custom parts having a larger footprint is definetly a good idea.
Not being a mechanical engineer nor have I spent much time understanding the
full system of this trim cable and its load bearing points or it resting
points, but I wonder how strong the attatchment needs to be. My one concern
at this time about the Van's supplied parts is not the weld strength but the
size of the plate and its location in relation to the large cable cut out in
the plate that it is attatched to. Notice also that the rivet holes holding
the steel plate are almost in line with the cable cut out. I wonder whether
a crack might form in the aluminum anchor plate at the cable cut out and go
toward one of the rivet holes.
If one was to use this Van's part one might do one of two things to make it
better. Use Proseal when rivetting the steel plate down and or bond(NO
RIVETS) another doubler sheet across the plate between the steel plate and
the cable cut out, make this doubler much wider than the existing 1" steel
plate. It looks like there is a least 1/2".
Just a dentist thinking out load.

That looks fantastic. Is the base thick enough to be able to
countersink it for a #40 dimple because I prefer to use AN3-426 rivets
instead of the LP4 rivets. Are the holes already drilled to #30, or
could we get them with #40 holes instead?
Thank You

Considering the stresses on this part in flight, I personally wouldn't go below an AN426AD4. You don't want the bracket shearing the rivets off and fluttering around back there. You can hide a flush AD4 as easily as a flush AD3.
