Please give me more details. I am very interested in installing a smoke system into our 3 Blue Angels F18's. and possibly some other ones.

Doug,
My smoke system using seperate large compress air tank.
The air pressurize the smoke tank. That coleman bottle is smoke tank.
The solenoid control to open and close. I had a seperate circus board to control the solenoid to turn on/off that hook up to your Rx.
Jetcat engine doesn't need the circus board to control the solenoid. The ECU are built in for smoke option.
To refill by unplug the the smoke line and air line. Make sure to bleach all the air out first before unplug the smoke line.
I also supply with two shut vale. Close all the vale when unplug the line or when you are not using it.
I run my on the roo. I get about 2min with dual smoke tube.
I using MDW smoke fluid. Tower Hobby carry it. $53 for 5 gallon bucket ship to your door.
Call me if you find out more detail.
