GRRR to Great planes on this one...


I've recently bought a Venus 40 and I've jammed an enya 50 (soon to have a 60 so i can go silly) but the problem is the tank position...They've sent the tank up so that it's in line with the crank, and it's an inverted motor.

Stupid stupid stupid.

I'm now stuck with a virtually unmanagable engine because the tank's too high.

I' can't lower it becuase the distance between the firewall and the mounts for the wing dowels is 100mm (4") and the tank is about 5" all up...

What do I do? This is a real pain in the backside ( or "Date" as downunder and i know it as)Will a header tank fix it? Do I need to make my own custom tank???This makes a nice aeroplane frightening to fly cos it dead sticks and changes needle setting something shocking as the tank drains..
