The manual says 30cc/1 ounce per minute at full throttle. Based on 50% throttle setting a 12 ounce tank should be good for more than 15 minutes of flying.<br />

What do you recommend?<br />

You could probably get by OK with a 12 oz tank, but I'd suggest a 16 just to be on the safe side. I've got a 24 oz tank in the P47 for no reason other than that was just what was in there with the previous engine. I don't know the exact amount, but I was surprised how little I put back in after 15+ minutes of flying around at 50-75% throttle most of the time.
