I do not know why you would need a 24oz tank to begin with. I used a 16oz tank for my .90... I know you went with an OS 120AX 2s, but glow engines consume an average of 2oz per minute at wide open. With my 16oz I could fly 8 minutes wide open before my tank is empty. Before you go cutting a lot out you may want to consider going down in size of fuel tank IMHO.
Just a suggestion.....

Ditto Kevin's comment about the 24oz tank. This plane wasn't designed for a 24oz tank, so if you choose to use it, good luck. [8D]
I'm no expert, but it would see a full fuel load would make a couple of trim adjustments during the flight essential. 24oz is a lot of weight toward the nose. Would there be a way to put the tank on the CG and use some kind of pump?
BTW...In post #48 is a nice picture of the tube sleeve. Looks like with bilberry's progress, I AM having trouble keeping up...go away for a weekend and look what happens.
I'll finish up on the fin later today, then post some, (belated) fuselage photos.
This build thread will be finished in two weeks. [8D]
