I mounted the fuel and smoke tanks and intake extension using a bracket system held in place by 4 bolts. By removing the 4 bolts I can remove all 4 tanks and the intake extension.
I made two "Z" brackets that hold the bottom center tank down, saddle tanks in place, intake extension against the front intake tube, and support the smoke tank. The upper front bracket holds the front of the smoke tank up and is secured with the top two fuse joining bolts.
Bottom center tank held in place by balsa blocks on front and side and on top by the Z bracket feet. Rear of tank will be protected from touching the front landing gear bolts (not in photo). The saddle tanks are held in place in front by balsa blocks and in rear by the center bulkhead.
