Default Norvel C/L tank question

OK short story its, snowing now but its supposed to be 60 in a few days and I plan on flying the JK trainer....I put my .049 rc on the control line tank so that I could have a tank without using the "Slickmount" from JK ,,anyway, I think I may go ahead and put the .061 in it, but my query is, since the control line tank has an air exposed pressure feed spout (is that what its called) should I run a line from the muffler pressure nipple anyway for added pressure or would that be overkill?
And if anyone has any exp. with it, will the .049 be enough? kinda like to keep the .061 freed up for another project
thanks, Rog

Hi Rog --

Go ahead and pressurize the tank -- it will improve consistancy. You really won't get much pressure from ram air alone. I've run that tank both ways and my engine tended to load and lean depending on attitude without muffler pressure.
