being so close to the prop, you might well get some significant extra drag and since it’s off the centre line extra yaw moment as well

I've used header tanks before when the tank isn't in the ideal position. Maybe try hooking up the other tank to it. Nice solution! I don't think it takes away from the looks of it at all. Can't wait to see it fly! Mike

To make sure that distance from the source is the REAL problem, you could loosen off the new tank's clamp, get some longer fuel line and hold the new tank back where the old tank is and repeat the experiment. Your PAW 55 ran so well, with nose up and down being completely ignored, that makes me think its got great suction, which would cope with the original fuel tank location. So I wonder whether it is actually an issue with the venting of the original tank.

Hello again, Mark. First, I must confess I have no experience with diesel engines whatsoever, none. All my engines are glow ignition. That being said, does your tank not need a vent? Seems to me it would. Also, Zap is not an epoxy. Or is it? Blue skies and fair winds!
@MarkRobinson555Күн бұрын
Hi Richard, thanks for the comment, its appreciated. The tank did have a vent fitted. Yes, well spotted it was CA not epoxy - some times the mouth and brain become a little disconected! hahahaha

Thank you Mark! Great video and looks much easier than soaking in water and waiting for everything to settle back into shape. As far as people worrying about loss of strength You could coat the balsa with epoxy mixed with some denatured alcohol making it almost the viscosity of water. The wood soaks it up and presto, added strength. Cheers!

These lovely old engines on the whole did't have mufflers. This was flown at BMFA Buckminster where issues of noise is much more relaxed. Certainly there are many clubs around the UK where you could not fly it. Its great that we still fly these where we can
