Development Corporation. The engine has a
mechanical fuel pump which is
supplemented with an electric pump. Theengine alternator is a 60 amp unit built by
Plane Power. The lightweight starter was
built by Skytec. The exhaust system is aVetterman crossover exhaust. Engine
parameters such as EGT, CHT, fuel flow,
manifold pressure, oil pressure, oiltemperature, oil level, oil bypass, and oil
chip detection are indicated by the
Advanced Flight Systems AF-3400. The
AF-3400 annunciates measurements outsideprogrammed parameters with visual and
auditory alarms.

The Propeller
The propeller is a three-blade wood corecomposite constant-speed propeller made by
MT Propeller of Germany. The blades are
Kevlar and carbon fiber-covered wood with
metal leading edges. The prop is controlledby a governor mounted at the left front of
the engine. A console-mounted blue lever
adjusts the governor to maintain engineRPM. The prop hub is covered by a
chrome-look Kevlar spinner.
The Fuel System
Fuel is supplied to the engine from two 21
gallon vented wing tanks located in the left
and right inboard wing leading edges.
Service the aircraft with 100LL Fuel.
WARNING
Ground Aircraft and Fuel Servicing
Equipment to the aircraft before
servicing. Do not smoke or use cell phone
while servicing.
Fuel quantity is indicated on the AF-3400engine monitor. Fuel passes through an
Andair fuel selector, through a filter, electric
fuel pump, fuel flow sensor, mechanical fuelpump, fuel distributor and then to the
individual cylinder injectors. At the fuel
distributor (spider) there is a fuel purge
valve to be used if the engine is started whilehot. The purge valve permits replacing hot
fuel in the fuel lines with cool fuel. The
purged fuel is returned to the right fuel tank.The electric fuel pump located inside the
cockpit is enclosed by a vapor-capture box
to vent any fuel vapors overboard.Engine air intake to the fuel injector body is
controlled through a Rod Bowers intake
and air filter system which boosts manifold
pressure by use of direct, unfiltered ram airinto the injector body. Pulling the ram air
knob closes the ram air butterfly valve and
forces the engine to draw air from inside theengine cowling through a conical K&N
filter.
Engine power is controlled by the black leftconsole-mounted throttle and fuel leaning is
controlled by the red, console-mounted
mixture lever.The Andair fuel selector has four positions;
left, both, right, and off. The fuel feed linesfrom each tank have equal lengths with
equal radii bends so that the both positionwill feed fuel from both tanks equally.

The engine starter is controlled through a
contactor which acts as a safety shutoff in
case of a stuck starter. The starter cannot beengaged unless the starter enable switch is
selected on. The starter is activated by use
of a button on the FCP stick grip.The E Mag Air P Mag ignition system is an
electronic ignition which has a fail safe
mode should all electrical power be lost. Inthe event of electrical power failure, the E
Mag Air P Mags will self generate electrical
power as long as the RPM is maintained
above 700. The right P Mag powers theupper set of spark plugs and the left one
powers the lower set. The spark plugs are
automotive style plugs (NGK BR8ES or
NGK BR8EIX) which fit into adapters forthe cylinders. Optionally, standard aircraft
plugs may be used.
Engine Instrumentation and Monitoring
The engine indications and monitoring are
the function of the Advanced Flight Systems
AF-3400 Engine Monitor. The AF-3400
monitors all engine parameters and alerts thepilot with audio and visual warnings should
the parameters exceed limitations.
Link to AF-3400 Operations Manual
Oil System
The engine oil is Exxon Elite semi-synthetic
20W-50 aircraft oil pumped under pressure
to the bearings. Maximum oil quantity is 8
quarts and the minimum is 2 quarts. The
ideal oil quantity range is 6 to 7 quarts. Theoil may be changed every 100 hours of
operation provided the oil filter is cleaned
every 50 hours. The oil is cooled through aStewart Warner 10631S eleven row oil
cooler and it is filtered through a 25 micron
ADC filter. The filter can be removed forcleaning and reuse. The ADC oil filter
incorporates a chip detector to monitor for
excessive ferrous metal accumulation and a
bypass should the filter become clogged.Both functions are monitored by the AF-
3400 and annunciate if either detector is
triggered. Crankcase blowby oil is captured
by an Andair air-oil separator mounted onthe firewall and vented onto the exhaust
pipes.
Environmental Control System
The ECS provides fresh air through four
vents or heated air through two vents.
NACA ducts located on the left forward
fuselage and under the right wing providefresh air to both cockpits. Front Cockpit
cool air is controlled by a lower left vent.
Two lower right side vents (one can bedirected on the feet) can provide either cool
air or warm air. A firewall-mounted
butterfly valve directs either cool air fromthe engine plenum to the right side vents or
warm air from the oil cooler exhaust.
Windscreen defog is provided through vents
near the windscreen. Defog air is drawnfrom the avionics cooling fan. A partially
opened canopy will provide plenty of fresh
air while on the ground.Protection from carbon monoxide poisoning
is provided by a CO Guardian Detector. See
the CO Guardian manual for completedescription.

CO Guradian AF252 Operation Manual
Electrical System
Two 12-volt, 17AH Odyssey PC680recombinant gas batteries, the main battery
under the front baggage and the standby
battery behind the aft baggage, combined
with a Plane Power 60 amp alternator formthe foundation of the aircraft electrical
system. Power distribution is via five busses
- a main bus, a standby bus, a left switchpanel bus, a right switch panel bus, and an
avionics bus. The Left Switch Panel bus is
powered by the Main bus and the RightSwitch Panel and Avionics busses are
powered by the Standby bus. The Main andStandby busses are separate and redundant.
The Main bus always powers the Standbybus and the Standby bus can power the Main
bus by use of a bus tie switch.
The main battery is switched by amechanical switch located on the lower right
FCP cabin cover. The standby battery is
controlled by a toggle switch on the rightswitch panel. The switch activates a
continuous-duty contactor located at the
standby battery. The main and standbybusses may be connected together using a
mechanical bus tie switch located next to the
main battery switch. Additionally, the
baggage and interior LED flood lights areconnected directly to the battery with 1 amp
fuses.
Operation of the electrical system is
monitored by an ALT warning light which
indicates the alternator has failed and by theAF-3400 indicating voltage and amperage.
Tefzel insulated wiring was used throughout
the aircraft except for the battery cables andengine ground cable which are #2 gauge
welding cable.
The electrical system has three groundinglocations main, firewall, and panel. The
main and firewall are directly connected
with a common bolt and the panel grounding
point is connected to the main ground by #8wire.
Power distribution is via Klixon circuit
breakers and Porter and Brumfield circuit
breaker switches. The CBs are located in atray under the right arm rest and the sixteen
CB switches are located on left and rightswitch panels on the forward consoles. The
CB tray also contains two P Mag power
switches and a starter enable switch. The PMag power switches provide aircraft
electrical power to the electronic ignitions.
The starter enable switch completes a circuit
that activates the starter button. The enginewill not start unless all three switches are on.
Figure 1 on page 1-4 details the switch list,
circuit breakers, circuit breaker switches,and load plan.
Landing Gear
The RV-8A is a fixed trigear airplane with
two main gear and one nose gear. The struts
are tubular steel enclosed by fiberglassfairings.
The main tires are 6 Ply 5-5.00 tube-type
tires mounted on split wheels. Maximumspeed for the tires will vary according to the
tire manufacturer. The maximum tire speed
will range from 105 knots to 139 knots. .Check the specification of the particular tire
The nose tire is a Lamb 4-4.00 purchased
from Vans Aircraft.

All landing gear are faired with fiberglass
fairings on the strut, wheels, and
strut/fuselage connections.The nosewheel swivels and steering is with
rudder and differential braking. The aircraft
can be moved or towed using a tow barconnected to the nosewheel. Flight
operations without all landing gear fairings
in place will adversely affect performance.
Wheel Brake System
The main gear wheels have hydraulic diskbrakes controlled by hinged FCP rudder
pedals. The brake master cylinders are
located on the forward side of the FCP
rudder pedals.Use caution to avoid dragging the brakes
by inadvertently depressing the brakes whilemoving the rudder during taxi and landing.
WARNING
Dragging the brakes can overheat the brakes
and cause a fire.
A lever-actuated parking brake can be set
while holding the brakes.
The parking brake is set by holding thebrakes and simultaneously moving the
parking brake lever to the down position.

T.O. 1RV-8A-1
The parking brake is released by movingthe lever into its latched up position.
WARNING
Ensure the parking brake lever latches into
the up position. If the lever is lowered inflight, full braking may be applied at
touchdown.
Wing Flaps
The trailing edge wing flaps are electricallycontrolled by a grip-mounted toggle switch.
One 12 volt motor located along the RCP
left sidewall operates the flaps. The flapsare interconnected by a steel rotary shaft
which insures both flaps extend and retractsimultaneously and symmetrically. Anasymmetrical situation is highly unlikely,
but it is easily resolved by reversing the flap
direction. Full flap extension or retractiontakes about 6 seconds. The flap motor
automatically stops upon reaching the full
up or full down position. The flaps are plain
flaps and have preset positions of 0, 10,
20, and 40. Takeoffs are normally done
using 0 or 10 flap settings and landings are
normally done using 20 or 40 flap settings.
The full up (0) setting is obtained by
moving the silver flap toggle switch on the
stick grip to the up position. Then each
momentary down position selection on the
switch results in progressively selecting 10,
20 and 40 settings. When the flaps first
move out of the up position, the voice alert
says, flaps. Bypassing the 10 and 20
settings is accomplished by pressing and
holding the flap switch until 40 flaps is
achieved. The flap position is indicated on
the AF-3400 monitor.Each stick grip can control flaps, but only
one at a time. The stick control switch,
located on the sidewall left of the RCP leftfootwell, selects which grip has control of
the flaps.
After landing, the flaps are normally left full
down to facilitate entry and exit and to keepuninformed passengers from stepping on the
flap.
Flight Control System
The flight controls consist of ailerons,elevator and rudder. The ailerons and
elevator are controlled via push-pull tubes
using bellcranks. The rudder is controlled
via cables. Two axis trim is used to adjustthe ailerons and elevator. The rudder does
not have a movable trim. Aileron trim is
adjusted by an electric servo which changesthe relationship of the feel springs to the
control sticks. Elevator trim is adjusted byan electric servo which moves a tab locatedon the left elevator trailing edge.
Each cockpit has an ergonomically-angled,
military-style control stick grip made byInfinity Aerospace. The FCP rudder pedals
are ground-adjustable by removing a T-
handle shaped push button locking pin in the

slider bar aft of and between the rudder
pedals. With effort, the rudder pedals could
be adjusted in flight, however, failure toproperly reinsert the locking pin will allow
the rudder pedals to slide forward making
them difficult or impossible to reach.
Photo of rudder pedal pin
Flight Control Trim
An electric four-way coolie hat switch
located on top of each stick grip controls the
aileron and elevator trim through the SafetyTrim module. The switch, trim servos, and
Safety Trim module are powered by the
Standby Bus, thus trim will functionnormally until all electrical power is lost.
Momentarily move the trim switch fore and
aft for pitch trim and left and right for
aileron trim.
Safety Trim Module
The Safety Trim module is mounted under
the left floor. In the electrical system, it is
positioned between the trim switch and the
trim servos. The Safety Trim has twofunctions: prevention of runaway trim and
adjustment of trim speed.The Safety Trim runaway trim cutout feature
stops the trim servo after 3 seconds of
continuous running thus limiting the severity
of a runaway trim situation. Further, shouldthe trim cutout feature activate, the trim can
be reversed to a neutral setting by using the
reverser switch located on the Right SwitchPanel. The switch is a three position switch
On, Off, and Reverse.The Safety Trim also changes trim servospeed to avoid over trimming at high
indicated airspeed. The servo speed is
optimized for traffic pattern use as larger
pitch trim changes are needed at slowerairspeeds. At high airspeed such as cruise,
the Safety Trim module slows the servo
speed to avoid overly sensitive trim. Below
100 KIAS, pitch trim speed is fast and above
100 KIAS, it is slow.
Pitot-Static System
The pitot-static system provides both impact
and static air pressure to the EFIS One, EFIS
Lite and Safety Trim. Impact ram air isfrom the left underwing heated pitot mast
and static air is from two static ports - one
on each side of the aft fuselage. An
alternate source of cockpit static air isavailable by opening a static line petcock
located under the center of the instrument
panel.
WARNING
Pitot and static ports must be clear before
flying.
Angle of Attack System
The angle of attack (AOA) system consists
of pressure ports in the left wing, a central
processing unit and a display.The pressure ports are located in the left
wing approximately eight inches inboard of
the wing/wingtip edge. The ports are 40thousandths diameter and sense the
differential pressure on the top and bottom
of the wing. The CPU converts thepressures to display signals. The display
indicates fast, on speed, and slow.
Additionally, the CPU produces a voicewarning when approaching the stall and the
voice becomes more urgent and morefrequent as the stall approaches.

The two axis autopilot is controlled by the
EFIS One and controls are moved by servoslocated under the front seat and behind the
aft baggage.
The lateral navigation can track the headingbug, GPS, VOR, ILS, or Virtual VOR. The
vertical navigation can track vertical speed
to a selected altitude, level off and hold thealtitude. Additionally it can track and ILS
glide slope signal. There is no control of
power or trim.
The master power switch is located on theRight Switch Panel. All entries for AP
guidance are through the EFIS One. The AP
can be disconnected using the stick grip
trigger.
Canopy
Both cockpit seats are enclosed with a
bubble canopy extending from the fixedforward windscreen to a slider rail along the
spine of the fuselage.
The canopy rides on two rollers along
cockpit side rails and a single slider alongthe fuselage spine behind the aft cockpit.
The locking lever is located at the front left
corner of the canopy and latches on a pin onthe windscreen support.
CAUTION
Failure to lock Canopy may result in
damage.
Note
RV-8As have been flown with the canopyunlatched without damage. The air flowover the canopy keeps it closed.
Baggage Compartments
The RV-8A has two baggage compartments
one forward of the windscreen and one aft
of the rear seat. The forward baggage is
limited to 50 pounds and the aft one is
limited to 75 pounds 25 of which may beon the upper shelf.
The forward baggage is accessed from the
right side of the aircraft and forward of thewing. It is the width of the fuselage and is
covered by a hinged, gas sprung locking
door.
CAUTION
Failure to lock the baggage door may result
in damage.
Note
RV-8As have been flown with the baggagedoor unlocked without damage.
The aft baggage is accessed by tilting thehinged rear seat back forward. The canopy
must be moved forward about 8 inches to
permit the seat back to clear the canopy
handle.
Panel Indicator Lights
Two indicator lights are located on the leftside of the instrument panel. An amber ALT
light provides warning of Alternator failure.A red CAUTION light serves as a master
caution light to bring attention to an out-of-
parameter engine indication. The cautionlight may be reset by acknowledging the red
warning at the bottom left corner of the AF-
3400 Engine Monitor. An audio warning
will accompany the caution light.
Interior Lighting
The cockpits and baggage compartments are
illuminated using LEDs. Fully dimmable
LEDs are located over the FCP and RCParm rest consoles, the switch panels, and the
instrument panel. The FCP lighting is
controlled by three dimmer switches on the

right switch panel. The RCP console lights
are controlled by a dimmer located above
the RCP right console. The same dimmercontrols the aft baggage compartment
lighting.
The front baggage compartment has aseparate switch located below the door
opening. All interior lighting is fused
directly to the batteries so lights can be usedwithout powering up the aircraft electrical
system. All FCP lighting and the front
baggage lights are powered by the Main
Battery. All RCP lighting and aft baggagelights are powered by the Standby Battery.
The LEDs consume very little power and
will not deplete the batteries if inadvertently
left on.
Exterior Lighting
Exterior lighting consists of positions lights,
strobe lights, landing lights andtaxi/recognition lights. All exterior lights
are controlled by switched on the left switch
panel. Except for the rudder-mounted
taillight, all exterior lighting is located in thewingtip leading edges.
The landing lights are High Intensity
Discharge (HID), the taxi/recognition lightsare Light-Emitting Diodes (LED), the wing
position lights are LED, and the taillight is
halogen. The HID and LED lights consumevery little power and produce little heat
when compared to incandescent or halogen
lights.
The HID lights use a ballast for initial highvoltage startup and then sustain using only
3.0 amps.
The LED taxi/recognition lights are dualfunction that draw 1.0 amps when on steady.
The three position taxi/recognition light
switch selects off, flash, or on. The onposition is steady illumination and is used
for night taxi. The flash position alternates
the lights for safety in the air.
The wing LED position lights are co-located
with the strobe lights. The halogen taillight
is co-located with the tail strobe light at thebottom trailing edge of the rudder.
Comm/Nav Radio
Eight For Papa is configured with a single
Garmin SL-30 communication/navigationradio. The SL-30 provides communication
in the VHF frequency spectrum and tunes
VOR navigation signals.
The SL-30 is connected to a wire whipantenna located on the bottom side of the
fuselage just inboard of the right main gear.
The coax to the antenna is interrupted by an
antenna switching box where a handhledradio can be connected. In normal
operation, the SL-30 signal goes to theantenna. When a handheld cable is inserted
into the switching box, then SL-30
transmission is interrupted and the bellyantenna then serves the handheld radio. The
full operation of the SL-30 radio is
explained in the Garmin manual.
