Default Smoke tank size

Putting a rebel pro together . Was wondering if 50oz smoke tank is enough. Thanks Dan

Should be ok I have CM Jets 1.5 L in my pro and it seems to be fine. Powerbox smoke pump, two nozzles and servo end point set to about 60% allows about 4-5 min of smoke I’d guess (I don’t use for the entire flight so it’s hard to say for sure)

Almost have to chuckle about this question Dan after as long as you've been around model Turbines, this ought to be a slam dunk answer for your own experience.....

Sometimes we ask the questions even if we know the answers just to double check our knowledge.
And for you Dan, I carry a 50 Oz. Dubro tank in my/your Boomerang XL, plenty.

You would think. I have a BVM 1/5 16 and a cougar that have smoke . They are PP models. I have not built one with smoke in years. Dan
