Hi All
I have just started my journey on looking at the RV12... I have always wanted to build an RV, and for the longest time, I have spent hours and hours reading up the forums and build sites on the RV10 - which is what I THOUGHT I wanted... BUT as life changes, I now do not need a 4 seater anymore, and am looking for a fun 2 seater - and I thought RV14, which would allow me to apply all my research (and mods planned) to the 14...
However, before I decide to carry on with the 14, I wanted to look at the 12 and see what is has to offer... I am looking for a side-by-side 2 seater, with good fuel economy and a decent range for XC flights (live in TX, and hope to make it to both coasts quite often)…
The reason I am considering an E-AB (12) is for the mods I have planned (albeit for the 10): Extended range fuel tank, AC, Upgraded Fuel/Brake Lines, Wheels/Brakes, Plush interior, O2 system, etc...
My question to y'all is: How is the 12 as an E-AB platform? What mods are recommended? What other mods have been made? What is not recommended for the 12? I have seen the thread on the mods for the E-LSA, but I was more curious on the E-AB additional mods that might have been done... Also, are there any good 12is build sites to read?
Thanks for the help... and I hope to join y'all soon!
