Hi, I have just re-assembled my "new to me" Rans S-10 (ex N4087Y, now C-FUQP) and the right wing has a little play at the wing root when moved up and down at...
I have no play. I would recommend posting to "RansTech" on www.ransclan.com and ask them what is the tolerance is. They may have a fix, also. That's a definite...
Can someone please point me in the right direction for any fuel tank AAD's/ recalls, etc. for the S-9 and I assume for the S-10. I can't seem to navigate to...
Hi Melinda Call ranstech or speak to Steve in stores as there is a fix for this, basicaly two plates riveted to the outside of the spar and a longer clevis pin...
Hi Melinda I noticed your new registration mark as CF, you are located in Canada? I just bought a Rans S10 as well and would love to talk to you. Can you...
Thanks Gordon and Jeff for replying. According to the Rans website, their tech support is away until Aug. 5th. I will call them. Gordon, the fix you...
Might consider getting rid of those clevis pins in favor of AN bolts & bushing/spacers. Torqued to eliminate the "slop" that caused the holes to elongate in...
Hi everyone. I am glad I found this page as I have wanted to build a S9 for quite a while and am now getting close to having the means to accomplish that...
Not intentionaly!! Ive had one come off. Isnt there a restriction somewhere on the S10 not to fly it with doors off?? I might be tricky in a sideslip with...
I think I saw an early promotional video from rans of an s9 flying with no door/roof fitted. Might be worth checking with them to see if this really is the...
I fly an Quicksilver GT500. I take the front doors off of it or least put the windows down on the front doors and leave the back doors on full up. I have...
When I flew my s9 in the summer I used to take the canopy off. It flew great. I did not have the turtle deck backing cover plate on and I do believe this...
I recently ordered a S9 from ran's with the low back option and the fuse came with a stub pointing up from the vertical fin at angle that would seem to be made...
Thanks Rex.  I talked to Ed at the factory about this since he's now back from vacation. He said the fix is to replace the leading edge spar doubler p/n...
I'm having problems installing the wheel pants. I have the new style landing gear with hydrolic brakes and it looks like the wheel pants will not slip by...
We are refurbishing an S-10. The blue fuel lines were hard like candy and crumbled in the fingers. Never flew blue fuel line, never will. Use Automotive fuel...
Mine slip right over and I have Matco brakes. I'll try to get some pics to you. ... 0700Subject: [sakaos] Wheelpant install ... style landing gear with...
Hi Gang,  I need 2 fuel tank caps for my S-10. Does anyone have a source for them? I have the 7 1/2 gal fiberglass tank that Rans put out until 1996. ...
Thanks Pat,  Our tanks have been dry for 5 years since use and the previous owner only ran 100LL in them with TCP fuel additive. The tanks look good, but...
I can only guess that ours failed due to MTBE or other CA oxigenators including ethanol. Our plane had been sitting for upwards of 10 years. We restored it and...
Hi every one, I intend to install a BRS 800 Canister in my S9… Did any one have a successful realisation with that kind of equipment? Could the battery stay...
Melinda I got spare caps from McMaster-Carr, but the S10 tanks filler necks are an odd sort of size and you need to be careful to get a bung size that fits -...
Replace the tanks with Rans new plastic ones. Requires some mods to the inside of the wing. We just got finished with that job. Rex ... From: melinda robertson...
