That's a good point, a priority point of view.

I would move the gas tank to needle valve priority above the "thrust Vector" (actually--Thrust line) priority.
Heck, if it don't run it can fly!

So to answer your question--I don't know. I changed it before I flew it for the first time.

This leads to another question. Why was it designed that way in the first place--answer: because its a cheap plane. You only get so much for your money or, you get what you pay for... In this case you get a lot of airplane for a cheap price and fix what you need too.

OK, Sorry. That's a MFG. point of view--I'll try to stick to the subject next time.
