 Posted: Tue Mar 13, 2007 2:05 pm Post subject: Performance Comparison |
 |
|
Regarding the comparison to other aircraft:
Here is a performance comparison someone put together a long time ago. I have the original power point and would add to it if someone has the specific data points for other aircraft of interest. (Bonanza, etc).
I don't know who did this originally, but I did keep a copy.
The points used:
Price, wingspan, length, wing area, empty weight, gross weight, useful load, useful load - full fuel, wing loading, power loading, engine horsepower, fuel capacity, cruise speed, takeoff performance, landing performance, range, climb rate.

AWW..ya forgot the TBM. Carries 6 people, 1000 mile range at better then
300MPH (more than that if they have removed the armor plating & the "Fish")
Short field & climbs out are smartly. Can carry a ton and is fully aerobatic
too. (for a bomber).
KABONG Do Not Archive BUT I agree the RV-10 is the pick of the litter in
it's class. 8*)

But it takes 60 gallons of fuel just to start it up and taxi to the runway! (Grin!)

I have also compiled a comparison chart on my website comparing
performance of the RV-10 and several others, both certified and
experimental. It can be seen at www.saintaviation.com/perf.htm. This is
all data that I got from the respective websites.
Speaking of which, has anybody seen the article in Kitplanes about the
Raven 500? They are claiming a max gross 900 lbs over the RV-10, yet
still a 650ft takeoff roll and 1500fpm climb, with the same engine. If
they can do it and still get 197Kts, then more power to them, but I highly
doubt it. Any other thoughts on that? Oh yeah, and how about a
500-600hour build. That would be, no doubt, without finishing (paint,
interior, etc.).

Having owned an original comanche and now flying a 10.I think performance is quite similar.The raven #"s seem realistic exept top/cruise speed seems somewhat optimistic.The published build time is of course outlandish.

Did you see the cost of the kit? 90K
and the estimate of a finished airplane? 250K

Yeah, and if they follow the pattern of Van's, it will actually cost
$300,000-350,000.
