Fuel Clunk Line too rigid?

How do you keep the fuel clunk line from getting rigid? Does it just need to be replaced every once in a while? I assume this is an effect of it being in gas?

Thanks!

Shalom, Moshiko!

Your plane is set up almost exactly like mine! Awesome. I am going to try the 9x9 prop. Do have any idea how fast it was going?

Best Regards.

RE: Sportster 60 power

That much weight that far forward is going to demand that you move the battery way back, at least. The great things about the SS is that it does great aerobatics, and lands like a trainer. If you add...

RE: Great Planes Combat Spitfire!

Nothing but respect for ya, Mike. I got some small Robart mechanicals a while back, but the trouble to put them in just wasn't worth it. I like my planes simple and fast.

RE: Spitfire with an MVVS .45

Too much power? Whaaaaat?

I have that exact model spitfire with an OS 35AX and it screams. I can get 133 in a dive, probably 115 level. That engine would require a lot of tail weight, and you...

RE: Sig Kobra(25size) w/32sx

Ditto on the 8x7. Absolutely no comparison in speed for that motor. Several of my buddies and I have been experimenting with 32sx, 35AX, and TT.36, and we have been able to get 135mph in a dive. We...
