The fuel tank is a 20 ounce water bottle. For the tube connections, I soldered 5/32" K&S tubing to a .025" copper plate and drilled the original cap for the tubes to exit. The bottle to plate joint is sealed with Seal All. This is the first time I have used Seal All. Looks like old model cement. I don't except it will come apart.
The bottle mount is made from aircraft ply wood and 1/4" lite ply. The cap is supported on the ring with holes provided to keep the vent up. The rear support is held in with 2 servo screws. The bottle is mounted above the canisters forward of the cockpit area.
