Sorry for my delay in returning to this post. Been a little busy with a project of my own.

As for the long distance fun fly: We take off in Ault Colorado and head straight east to Sterling on HWY 14.

We have a driver (sometimes 2), a pilot, and a co-pilot who takes the sticks when the pilot gets tired.

You need a pickup without a topper. Toss a luvseat or couch in the back and shove it back up against the tailgate; facing forward. Put on your riding or skiing goggles and bring lots of iced-tea and sunscreen.

We take off on the runway at Ault and then hop in the truck while you circle the field. Once the truck gets going, you just fly the plane along over the plowed fields and under the telephone wires. With the driver and his navigator up front and two pilots in the back, it's a real blast.

If you need to stop for more gas or to charge batteries, just land on the HWY. (2-lane blacktop HWY)

You'd be amazed at how fast a Kadet Senior actually flies. We prop the engine up and slow the throttle down to almost 1/2. The planes still do 60MPH, no problem.

It is such a blast. I look forward to it every year.

For the header tank installation, just mount the main tank under the wing and the 2oz or whatever size you want under the hood, behind the firewall. Run the pickup on the main tank into the pressure line on the header tank and the pickup on the header to the carb. Pressurize the main tank from the muffler, just like you would normally. With this setup, the main tank will drain first. Your CG will not change much if you mount the main tank under the wing. This way you don't have to re-trim as the tanks gets low.

When running the header tank, try to mount the main tank about 1/4"-1/2" higher than the header tank. This will give you a slight siphon advantage and will keep the engine from leaning out as the main tank gets low. If you encounter problems with leaning out as the main tank gets low, just fill it only about 1/4 full and then tune the engine that way. Fill the tank the rest of the way full and go fly it.

For the flaps, heres what I'd do:

Run a single servo in the middle of the wing for flaps and rig both flaps to a single pushrod or torquerod. Then put a servo in each wing half for ailerions.

Have fun with it.
