The complete QuickBuild Kit consists of a Standard Empennage/Tail and Finish kit, but the big difference is that the Wings and Fuselage will arrive largely complete! You can pry open the crate, set the QB fuselage on the floor, toss in a cushion off the couch (just don’t get caught!), climb in and be making airplane noises on the very first day. Van’s QuickBuild Kits will cut building time for the RV-7/7A, RV-8/8A, RV-9/9A, RV-10 and RV-14/14A by 35-40%. And, they work for about eight dollars an hour! We don’t know anybody like that either, but we can tell you how to get the result: Order a QuickBuild Kit. When they leave, you’ll have only 800-1200 hours of work to finish your airplane. They never leave a mess in the shop, make no noise to disturb your spouse, don’t need insurance and never want to use your bathroom. They will do all the messy jobs, like sealing the fuel tanks and priming to protect against corrosion. This team will build the first half of your kit, handling the jigging and riveting about 75% of your metal airframe. How would you like to hire a team of experienced experts, with well over a thousand completed RV airframes on their resume, for twenty-five weeks, eight hours a day? Spending 1800-2000 hours in the shop constructing an airplane is simply going to be difficult. There are soccer games to attend, household duties and vacations… Time is precious.
But now you have a family of your own, and a job with real adult responsibility. So, the RV is exactly what you’ve been looking for, ever since you started drawing airplanes on your third-grade workbook cover.
Van’s QuickBuild Kits RV-14 Quick Build Kit Please visit the Standard Kits page for more information on those kits. The Standard Kit is perfect for the builder who enjoys the process and is working on a limited budget. If the builder has a little more money to spend and wants to get flying even sooner, the QuickBuild Kit is an excellent value.
The difference is the degree to which these parts have been pre-assembled when the builder receives them. Two kinds of kits are available: the Standard and the QuickBuildĪll RVs, whether built from a Standard or a QuickBuild Kit, are constructed from the same parts. This means the fabrication and assembly work we do for you on the QuickBuild kit is less than 50% of the total work required to complete the aircraft, and that at least 51% of the work remains for the kit builder. All of our kits have been reviewed by the FAA and have been found eligible for licensing in the Experimental Amateur-Built category. The builder must provide the engine, instruments, propeller, avionics and upholstery.
RV kits include all the parts needed to build a complete airframe.
