Default RE: Patriot related

VASEK, I am glad you brought this up. I have a Patriot and have been looking for a way to extend the flight time and I don't even use the retracts. The fuel tank I have is like 10 or 12 oz
and i get decent flight times but one thing is for sure you don't want this bird to run out of fuel. The Patriot will head at the ground like a Hawk after a field mouse. The way Bob explains it you can use two tanks and "Y" adapters with bubbless tanks. I think that would work if you could fit the slim one up in the fuse above the wing. The nose is already too heavy to worry with trying to fit it in the fuel bay. My Patriot is nose heavy now with a 46 and normal tank. It makes it want to nose down in turns. I just don't want to add the lead in the tail. Let us know how you come out with this because this is probablly a common problem.
