I see, I like the looks of the the BVM one but it seems quite small, is it suitable for larger >30Lb turbines?
Yes, it works fine with the large thrust turbines. I've been running one without problems in an AMT Olympus (45lbs) for several years. Bear in mind that the function of a UAT is not as a fuel supply but a mechanism to supply a constant flow of bubble free fuel to the turbine in all flight attitudes. Fuel in the UAT should be considered "unusable" and you should look elsewhere if more is needed (i.e. larger main tank, aux tank or header tank).
