If you use suitable tubing size (inside the tank and connecting) then its fine

The CARF clunk changed a couple of years ago and should not be used on anything other than a P-20!
The internal hole reduced in size (it can be drilled out to 2.7mm) and then it works. The clunks we have made have even larger holes, but there is no US source

Test flew the camo UF today at PMFC. Wet longish grass and 2-3mph wind not down the strip and it showed again why the UF is king of sports jets.
Two peeps of up trim (fractionally nose heavy) was all it needed, flap mix etc was perfect straight off.

i've got systems that are 10+ yrs old and no leaks, seldom do i ever have to change the tubing (i don't use the low quality from the start) you can even buy the air tubing that's 'glued' together if that's your big gripe. i highly doubt electrics will ever dominate, fact is air retracts are reliable, and cheap and have been working flawlessly for yrs, gonna take a lot more then programmable features to ever push air out of the ballgame.
Never say never.

Yes. I wrap the wire three times, then use ZAP20 (Slo Zap) to tack glue the tape down. If you need to lift the wire, pull and it takes a spot layer of the tape away-add a new dab of glue and re attach.
It was the lightest method I could come up with

Hi to all,
Continuing with my lovely UltraFlash, it's really the best sport jet all around. Love she.

I am building or I should putting together my first ultra flash and it's been going together ok with the help of the directions and a post I put up a couple of weeks ago on the nose gear using prolinks and it worked out well with help from other people who have put them together and posted some pictures.
My new issue is that I am using a P140 rxi turbine and I just can't seem to find the proper mounting position to run the plug through the bypass and fuel line . I am using the complete bypass with jetech saddle tanks that were made 3/8" smaller to fit better in fuse. If anybody is using this set up and have some pictures it would be helpful if you can post them and give me a couple of suggestions. I already tried mounting plug on each side of bypass but due to that 90 degree bend in plug its in the way of the saddle tanks. I fly well but never put anything new together. Always bought used jets.
thanks
