Default RE: pipedup's pjt

Here is what I chose for a fuel tank, won't be needing more fuel than this anyhow as runtime is not a factor into this build:



Factory tank is sitting at 59g:



The 100cc tank is sitting alot lighter at 32g, mind you there were fuel hoses on the original tank weight:









Now what body to use? Had this shell lying around I will try it and see what it looks like on the speed rail:



Fits really nice, can't wait to splash some paint on it:







It had to be a bit more aerodynamic so I installed a front air dam, bet you can't figure out what this was before:







8lbs 3oz minus paint and fuel :




This baby is going to fly, now all that is left is get a paint booth rigged up 8)
