RE: GP Super Stearman
Buubagates,
I'm going to use a 24-32oz tank for gas. I'm dropping a Brison 2.4 in here and need the largest possible fuel tank that I can fit in.

I think you should use a smaller fuel tank. That engine at most (staying at full throttle the whole flight which you will not need to do) will use roughly no more than 1 ounce per minute and you will use the smoke oil at close to 1.5 to 2 ounces per minute. Flying around at half throttle or less which is all you will need with the Brison, you would be using something like 1/2 ounce per minute of fuel. Remember single cylinder gas engines do not use anywhere near the amount of fuel that a simliar size glow engine will use.
I would do a 12 to 16 ounce fuel tank and with the exact same size smoke tank and do not leave the smoke on all the time, just use it to enhance certain maneuvers
