Has vibration concerned any of you ? I am using the Saito 90TS twin, single carb.

I have always used foam around the tanks in my planes but I do have a few that because of the design there is no room for foam. I have not had any issue with the ones without foam. I even see now people mounting receivers without foam which used to be a no-no.
