Another Awesome Evoke Paintjob
I haven’t gotten out to the garage yet today, but I will when I get home from work. That said I did go look at the left tank and the balloon was still inflated by it was 1/2″ shorter. That could be from cooling of the air so I’ll see when I get home after it has been hot in the garage all day if it goes back to being 10 1/2″ but this is VERY promising on the tank I thought was good. I did not yet pressurize the other tank as I want to give it a full 24 hours to cure before I put pressure it in and see if that leak is sealed up.
That aside, I wanted to put this paint job up from Van’s Aircraft’s RV-10 so I could remember it when talking with Evoke. This design is enough of the “old school” and the new school edges that I want something similar but color wise I’m not yet 100% sure. I want something patriotic in color scheme as I love the red, white, and blue scheme. Either way, these were great ideas to get my design started.
There was also this one that I saw on Evoke’s website that has some of the flowy old school styling to it, but I also like it.

Also, this is what I am going to do for AC while we are on the ground. I don’t want to add the permanent weight of an AC unit and I think this will be just fine for while we are on the ground. It is from Aircraft Climate and it is a bit on the expensive side at $1500 so I might have to figure out a way to do this myself. You still have to add the remote to it as well which is another $100.
