thanks tony...I'll be at the event and will look for you once there.
Very anxious to get some more information on this great plane and the proper way to set it up and fly it.

by the way the tank is right up against the firewall and is centered.
It is however an oval tank.

regards

Paul


There is no tank placement that will provide you with consistent running from the beginning of the tank until the end of the tank of fuel. A previous writer is correct in that your present fuel tank location probably offers the best performance without using a fuel pump and regulator.

The best way to run your Webra .50 is with crankcase pressure pumped through a one way valve and then regulated by a Cline or Iron Bay fuel pressure regulator valve. Then your engine will run absolutely even throughout the tank of fuel.
