I’ve decided to sell my RV-7A project. It’s dragged on and on, and I’ve lost interest in completing it. I have more interest in just flying my Challenger II. The RV-7A is about 80% done.
Engine is Subaru WRX STi 2.5 L supercharged. All the bugs are worked out of the original Eggenfellner product. Most Eggenfellner-supplied components have been replaced; SDS ECU, custom radiators, new wiring harness, supercharger gearing. Engine runs great, and all it needs is probably some more fine-tuning of the SDS ECU. John Moody in Australia has been flying his awhile. Includes latest Gen3 rev 4 PSRU, installed. Includes MT7 electric prop, installed.
Three EFIS systems installed – Blue Mountain “gold box” EFIS/One, GRT Horizon, and Dynon D10. Blue Mountain AP installed. GRT EIS installed
Full Garmin stack trays and Sandia TSOd encoder installed
Tipup canopy completed but not final-installed.
Needs rear window installed, 1 panel each wing installed, top fuse panel behind window and fwd of canopy installed (left out for wiring access). No fiberglass work done.
Includes Advanced Flight Systems AoA, wig-wag HID lights, bulletproof electrical system based on Bob Nuckolls’ designs and Perihelion products, low fuel warning, low coolant warning, fuel pressure warning, electric flaps, electric trim, custom console, heater, Oregon Aero seats, Hooker harness, Show Planes Flaps Positioning System, Infinity Aerospace grips, cabin lighting, custom baggage compartment and other customizations (see my custom page http://www.meyette.us/custom.htm ).
Includes finishing kit and all parts to finish it. All gear mounted and brakes installed. Van’s front gear leg SB installed. Panel complete, except Garmin wiring.
Empennage is done & final-installed. Flaps & ailerons all done & fitted. Wings not installed.
And much more – this is a list off the top of my head of some of the main components.
Entire project very extensively documented at http://www.meyette.us/RV-7Ahome.htm No effort or expense spared in doing everything RIGHT. Everyone who's looked at it, including 3 EAA Tech Inspector visits, says all the workmanship is excellent
Every part needed to finish and fly the plane is included; nothing left to buy.
Only asking $45k for it – way less than cost and making the FWF essentially FREE. Will also trade it for an RV-12 kit, in case someone has decided they'd like a faster plane.
Will sell it without the FWF for $39K; hardly more than the cost of the kits alone. Less than the cost of parts, not even counting the BMA EFIS or the FWF.
