Hello Japanflyer:

I use a very diverse set up. I have a Dubro fuel setup. I cannot remember the model name but it has a 1 gallon red fuel tank. It comes also with a squeeze pump and fuel lines. No need for a battery, easily portable. And very safe!

I also have a small tool box with a metal lid. I got it in a raffle. Available at any NAPA or similar auto parts store or a Sears store. I store spare props and any large parts I need for the planes I am flying. Sucj as canopys, interwing struts and so on. It usually stays in the car.

I also use a flight box. Standard Goldberg kit I assembled and painted. In it I keep all the little goodies I Need like clevises, spare parts and tools.

I also have a small box that holds a small motorcycle battery. It has 2 side compartments. In one side goes the starter. In the other side goes the seperate Nylighter. I also keep my tach, voltmeter and field charger in this box. I do not use a power panel. Too many chords to get tangled and cought in propellers. If my model dies taxying out all I need is this small box. It gets used real hard by most of the guys at the fields I go to. It is very handy, And with the cycle battery it runs starters all day long. It never goes dead like the small gel cels and like do.

Everything is small and portable. Just remember the KISS principle (keep it simple stupid). I hope this helps.
