What a fantastic build and choice of systems; very impressive. I think we should reword the "experimental category" to "modern age" category - seeing as they employ technology that is tried and tested for engines today. Coil ignition, Automated AFR management, no mixture controls, no vacuum gauges - I'd love to operate such systems in an aircraft. 170 Knot TAS would be a blast too!
Nice V-LOG. How satisfied as a customer, are you that you made a Wise purchase? Brand New Pilot. Shopping for a aircraft. Do you or Anybody else reading this point me in the Right direction. This is just the RV 14 correct? You chose not to buy the larger fuselage. If i understood this right from there site there are upgrades for the fuel and longer wings i believe 28ft. I'm not sure. Not the RV 14a assuming.
William, I am the builder and owner of this amazing aircraft. There are no upgrades for this aircraft for longer wings that I am aware of. I believe there now is a larger fuel capacity available but in reality I don't believe you need more fuel unless there is a mission requirement for it. The next upgrade to a bigger plane would be the RV-10. It has a 31'9" wing span. 4 place with a 6 cylinder engine.
Are you maybe thinking of the RV9, which was (I believe) was based on the RV7, but had a longer, higher aspect ratio wing? (which also made it less aerobatic - as I understand it, more intended as an efficient cruiser than a sport plane).
I just love this flight. Great job explaining your instrument panel.
I’ve had a flight in a RV14/A but I’m hoping to have one in a RV7/A too. Beautiful planes I’m hoping to eventually build one in the future.
No mags, No carb heat, No red knob, computer controlled mixture....makes crawling back into a 172N feel like time travel now!
What a pleasant video to watch! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!

That was fun to watch, thanks for sharing!
You're welcome!
These are some of the best Garmin copies I've seen. I bet they are way more affordable.
Amazing flight!!!
It truly was.
Very well done.
Thank you! Cheers!

@@IvanKristensen Perhaps I missed it - which engine are you running in this RV14?

@@boydw1 the engine in the RV-14 is an IO-390 215hp angle valve Lycoming.
Hi Luis, where are you based?. Nice airplane. I am in the market for one. Used to own a Cessna Cardinal
I'm based in Waterloo (CYKF). This plane belongs to a friend of mine. I fly a Hawk XPII R172K.
Where did you get that lean assist computer? Name?
