RE: cox fuel tank
Have you had or tryed a PRESSURE BLADDER from texas timers the reason i was going to use the .049 dragon fly because it had a build tank on it.The 1/2a steath sport i have does not have much room up front to use a TD.049 i really wanted to use not even enoght room for a 1 oz round tank and read that a pressure bladder could be put in the back of the plane were there was room and holds enoght pressure to keep a TD fueled even inverted can hold 2 0z or more fuel thanks

Try smearing some hi temp gasket sealer on saran wrap cover with an additional sheet of saran wrap and GENTLY press the part the gasket goes on to make an impression. don't squish it all out though. let it cure and cut it out later. Or just use a tooth pic and seal it with the same sealer. the stuff should stick well enough to be permenent but it will make a good seal.
