To the pilot looking to pursue "Lite IFR," in all humility I have say that
sooner or later there will be "Heavy IFR." If you fly much, especially
cross country, you will encounter something that will be a real challenge,
either for your level of experience (or current practice) or for your level
of instrumentation or for the airplane's capabilities. Maybe all of these.
If IFR is in your plans, then build with redundancy, as someone else said at
this site, and plan on regular practice with an instrcutor, you under the
hood, because, as I was told years ago, I have found it is a job for a
private pilot to get real IMC regularly enough to be as proficient as some
occasions require.
PS: An RV 10 is a pretty stable platform. All round nicest plane I've
flown, and seems to collect some of the nicest people too. Enjoy a fine
plane.
