Vans RV-10 - The Elegant Beast - ENGLISH VERSION 

Beautiful airplane, beautiful landing, beautifully narrated!

Great video about one of the greatest personal airplanes!

Awesome video. Makes me want to build an RV-10 even more now...

Top.

Very well crafted video with an excellent and accurate narration. One small point, as an RV-10 builder/pilot who has the same engine and prop combination, and 1300 flight hours on my -10 in the past 15 years: with a power setting of 22 inches MAP and 2400 RPM at 8500 feet (and probably a density altitude of around 10k given the surface temp of 75F), a normal RV-10 would be cruising at around 170kts, not 159kts. So I think that air conditioner may be causing a performance penalty closer to 10kts than 2-3kts, due both to the external air scoop and the weight of the internal equipment. It does make the cabin more comfortable on hot days, though. Another less expensive way to cool the cabin is to "climb and maintain 65 degrees F". 🙂

Outstanding video and build!

The language changes, but not the 'coolness' and the magnificence.

Top 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I think it have better carrying load, more power efficient than Mooney except top speed, 2 doors. Fixed gear for easy maintenance. Why don't they certify it and produce commercially?

Thanks for the video. Plaudits.

Who did the assembly?

150-170 ktas depending on altitude, ROP/LOP, rpm and how much money you have for 100LL. It’s a great plane either way. Normal approach speed 65-75 kias. I have never used 80.

I have seen some faster clipped wing/shorter wing rv-9s, I wonder how much faster a short wing rv-10 would be.

Chances are the throttle isn't vernier but rather the prop.

Nice video but LMAO 3:08 so you are telling me that this BAGGAGE COMPARTMENT is reasonably sized? That door would not allow most women's purse to enter. That is TINY. so stupid to try to highlight that. This plane is for sport not for daily use.
