Default RE: Genesis ARF build, its here.

OK,
Getting really really close now.

Installed the tank mount and 20oz dubro tank. ( possibly need a bigger tank?
Installed the jaccio switch.
Installed stabilizer set screws.
Installed fuel dots.
Installed a 2-56 socket head screw in the needle valve on the engine.
Installed the antenna tube and put the antenna in, but need to set the receiver in its place.

Also, I checked the CG and it was not surprisingly more nose heavy. I switched to a lightened back plate( had a feeling i would need it so I ordered an extra). I would imagine that the 4 blade prop is helping to cause that.
OK, so I mounted the tank directly over the wingtube instead of in front of the wingtube and it looks like it will balance out almost perfectly with the battery pack way on the back of the pipe tunnel structure. Looks good.
