Default Sounds like it works very similar to the Xicoy unit...

Wish I had mine.... from what I can gather, it works very much like the Xicoy units. All settings are changed via the GSU on the Telemetry unit. Very glad to hear it has both tank size (usable fuel) and pump factor (to calibrate and fine tune).

Please let us know what pump factor you end up with on your 45 (using your actual usable fuel volume - not an adjusted volume to end up with the right fuel remaining telemetry read out). In other words, don't fudge the tank volume to make the telemetry work - calibrate the unit by adjusting the pump volume until the telemetry result is correct. That way we will have a proper pump factor for a 45 that everyone can use - regardsless of the actual tank size/usable fuel volume our models have.

Cheers,
