Default RE: How do you recommend I seal this?

Yep, they're both Phoenix tanks. I'm definitely not going to use the setup that came with the Decathlon - because of the plastic parts and because it's a TINY tank for a bigger plane and engine than all my other planes.

Ken, I'll have to check this out. I don't remember seeing how tight the seal was after I cranked down the screw, but what you said makes sense. The only thing I can think of is if the plastic tubes are soft enough that they are deforming rather than a good tight seal being made.

Graybeard, I had one caller for most of the event, then this other guy came and thought he could 'fix me'. He was like 'do this, do that, then do this' before I even started flying. I want to learn, but it lost it's fun (with him) quickly. After that round I went back to (Scott) my original caller and told him to just call the moves and let me have some fun with this one =)

I think it's just all about stick time, flying in different conditons and trying different things before, during, and at the end of a maneuver.
