C-182 way better view & a built-in rain shelter too. Any PIC time is 👍 so long as the kite stays together. I got to bring a Skylane back to Oregon from the Cessna Factory in 1977 when they were less than $100k. Great fun in January!!
Another option is to find a used 182 with a P-Ponk conversion, and some speed mods and save $50k and 10 years of building. 182 can double up as an excellent Bush plane too. Mush more versatile than the RV-10.
pure apples and oranges there...the RV is 20 knots faster and climbs a few hundred fpm better, rolls quicker (neither one is aerobatic so that's just preference) ...other than that its pretty much a wash...the Skylane has a better CG envelope..high wings for weather protection,off airport clearance,slow speed handling and way easier loading....while it does cost more that's due to being a certified airplane with (as all certified planes) any possible liability and legal costs incorporated into the cost...both are great aircraft with different missions
I like the RV 10 my nephew build his RV10 in the garage and he is very happy with the plain and it looks very good 👍✈️ l have considered building one like the RV7 A or the RV10 Thank for shearing the video
Perhaps just throw in there the RV10 is experimental, and while that isnnothing to shy from, will take you atleast 1.5 years to quick build while you can probably get the same performance from a Mooney of you wanted to buy and fly today.
My dad has an RV10 and each wing holds 30 gallons of gas. The interior space is good, with 4 seats and additional baggage area, accessed on the inside and outside, sound levels are good, I can hear my brothers talk when we have our headphones off. My dad got it for 220,000 and paid a mechanic ,aka my grandpa 20 hr to put it together.
You are comparing two different wing types. High wing has better climb and slow flight. The low wing better cruise, x wind landings. The high wing has lower stall speed as compared to low wing. If you compare do against another low wing.
Brad Bailey now your talking, that’s a direct comparison for sure, about as close as you can get. I nearly bought a Dakota but a LAME said to me if your ever looking to sell the Skylane has more willing buyer’s. So I bought the 182 and it does what I want.
Seriously this from AOPA and no mention on Safety? Statistically it is clear that you are several times more likely to die in an RV10…. That bears consideration and mentioning.
RV 10 is a great plane yet I own a 182q. Why is that? I have no interest in building my own plane and I certainly wouldn't trust the build quality of an amateur built plane purchased from someone else.
The build quality of most RV's I have checked has been exceptional. Lovingly and carefully assembled with checks along the assembly process. Modern Cessna pistons have a build quality that leaves a lot to be desired from the ones I have looked at. This was particularly obvious in early C172s of the new generation with terrible fuselage and cowling fit. As for the good old C182Q well I got my PPL in one (the second half) lotsa years back and I loved it but boy things have well and truly moved on!
The customers for a 6-seat high performance airplane would rather buy than build, because they can afford it. The RV10 is probably the largest homebuild airplane you can build in a reasonable time frame.
Not Only Is An RV-10 Not An LSA (It Seats Four & LSA Maximum Seating Is Two), It Is Considered A High Performance Aircraft Because Its Engine Exceeds 200 Horsepower . . .
Skylane = Certified. RV-10 = Experimental. If the RV-10 had to comply with certification requirements I'm betting it would be heavier, bulkier, slower, and more similar to the 182's performance overall.
No, the RV wouldn’t be any slower or heavier. It would still use the same engines, parts and avionics, but it would cost $500k more to buy to pay the certification costs and it would take $50/hr more to fly because you would have to use FAA certified mechanics.
The RV10 will not be heavier, just a lot more expensive compare to the current price. The structural requirements for the RV10 is already at the FAA certification standards, and Vans has to spend the money certifying it, and this will add to the final price of a "certifcated" RV10.

In other words, save your 200 grand and go build you a nice plane.
It is very tempting, but 1,500+ hours to build....

@@Nemesisnxt excellent comment. and it proves that this was a bad comparison.
@@caspercobb8928 that comment didn’t age well, however. Please find me a 182 with a full glass panel and a low time engine & prop.

I love this RV-10 vs. the world thing.
Great comparison.
I'm so confused. What's next??? Maybe compare an RV-7 to a Cessna 150... ?? (sarcasm, folks...)

... Ehhh, Is anyone honestly surprised the RV10 outperformed the certified 182? Looking forward to future comparison vids!
I love this Flyoff idea.
Your aretalking two different animals ... Years apart in design no real comparison besides it the Higher stall speed that tends to bee the KILLER
Perfect, I've got an IO 540 and props for both of them. Call now~!!!!
Like, excellent videography • Cheers from Mettetal Airport. Canton - Plymouth Michigan ✈️

Adding to Kristen's comment, please include fuel burn, range, and ceiling limits.
My RV-10 burns 12.2 gph at 165 TAS. The useful load is about 1200 lbs and the highest I have ever taken it was 19,000'
Both 4 seat, ok but what about important details left out like useful load, fuel capacity and interior space and sound levels in the cabin, price etc?

It's a fly off NOT a Spec off LOL
Don't forget to factor in price... RV-10: $115-140K / 182: Up to $515K.
@@Porkins69 no rv10 out there costs that. You are looking at a minimum of $150k for a bare bones -10.

I know the RV still would have won, but why wasn’t the Piper Dakota included in this flyoff?

I would buy the C172 above the Vans all day long, plus another bonus Cessna are not Bankrupt

Well pickle me that 182 has an almost identical paint job to mine, a 1978Q.
Not a comparison most pilots would think of.
This should be cirrus vs rv10
They did that too

Better comparison is the RV-10 and cirrus SR22
Any 6 seat experimentals comparable to the pa-32.being developed?
The customers for a 6-seat high performance airplane would rather buy than build, because they can afford it. The RV10 is probably the largest homebuild airplane you can build in a reasonable time frame.
It's a Skylane, rather than Skyline.
I'd say the best thing about my Skylane is it didn't take 2000 hours of punching rivets in my garage
What about range?
Not a valid comparison. -RV 10 is a LSA -C182 performance factory build.

Dumb comparison, a low wing and a high wing two complete different animals , not possible to even compare them at all way too different.
New paint scheme on RV-10 is ugly
😕
