 |

I have the Safeair ER fuel tanks and would like to install the new Aerosun VX landing/taxi lights. They have a mod kit for the RV10 wingtip but I can't tell if this will fit with the tanks. Has anyone done this?

I also have the Safe Air1 tanks. I spoke with the guys at oshkosh this year about the Aerosun VX. The general consensus was that it WILL fit with the tanks installed. The adapter that they have produced requires you to enlarge the existing wingtip cutout in the span wise direction only, not the chord wise direction. After looking at the tanks and tips on my -10, I think it will fit but I am not 100% sure yet.
I will be, though, before I cut those tips. I spent too much time making the access hatches with an english wheel...

It does not fit directly as they say. I had to perform substantial glass work to make them fit, as there was tolerance issues. That said, I am glad to have them installed. I will try and get some pics (parts are off to paint).
