Default RE: PICS OF YOUR AIRBOATS

AlphaRomeo, those are valid questions. I only own 1 airboat(the Cox powered Dumas Lil' Swamp Buggy pictured earlier in this thread) but have lots of rc planes. In my airboat, I use a hard brass line as a fuel pickup in the bottom of the tank. No need for a clunk since it should always be upright when running, no twisting or inverted maneuvers HOPEFULLY. Mine accelerates slow enough that the pickup location isn't too critical. As a matter of fact, I've run my tank facing both directions without any noticeable performance changes.
