What size of fuel tank do you guys have and what are your flight times??? I'm still trying to decide if I want 24 oz tank - or maybe slightly smaller????? going to run smoke on the plane(GP PITTS) as well and it will go WAY faster than fuel.
I am using a 24 Oz and i have my timer set to 9 minutes.....in reality i can probably get 12 mins before 'flame out'.

My motor is still slightly rich with 2 gallons through, so i would expect that consumption to get better.

I am also running a tuned pipe on the DL with a 23 x 8 mejzlik
