Hi All,
Very pleased to report RV-10 C-FMHP flew it’s first flight this afternoon.
Couple snags including a light turn to the left at cruise and a transponder not reporting altitude but overall seems to be a great airplane.
Keep smashing those rivets, it’s well worth it!

Perry,
Congratulations!!! I know you are elated over your accomplishment.
On the left turn, before you get too excited about tweaking anything, if it’s very light it could be that it’s you causing it and not the airplane if you have equal fuel in both tanks. If I’m not using the autopilot I am very sensitive to which tank I burn out of for roll trim and I start with the left side if solo. Just a consideration of course it could be something else.
On the transponder, if you have a Garmin 327 I had some issues as well and was told by the folks at Stein where I bought it the pin in the back that transfers the altitude data to the XPDR is finicky to say the least. Others haven’t had an issue but getting the pins seated properly might help.
Best of luck with the test hours,
Marcus

CONGRATULATIONS! I would also like to see pictures, as would most of the other people on the list I’m sure. Enjoy it.
On the slight turn at cruise, does it happen when you raise your flaps from climb setting to cruise setting? I have seen that before and it could either be cause by a very slight twist in the flaps or one being a little higher than the other. The best way to see that you don’t have a twist in the flaps is to raise them all the way up and compare the spar rivet line with the top skin on the wing. It is a very easy way to see how straight your flaps are (ask me how I know).

Sorry no rv grin shot, the ground crew got bored waiting for me to land and went flying themselves it was such a perfect fall day.

Congratulations on getting airborne for your first flight. It's a great feeling when you get to that day but then you land a realize that you still have a lot of work left to do :>} But it's a lot easier when you know you can take it back up for another spin.
Good luck on your fly off eh
