Default RE: Finally fired up the enigine

Hayes tank are bar none the most reliable tank on the market today and as K3 vallley flyer stated can be assembled in less than a minute.

The o ring equiped plug can removed and inserted indefinately, try that with a conventional not gonna happen without leaks.

There is no need for a third line either, two line systems work just fine with fewer failure modes and thats with or without a cowl.

All new projects of mine get Hayes except for a small number that benefit from a Bubbless type tank.

In the case of some ARF projects I have done for my self as well as others I usually discard the included tanks and use only Hayes. A very high percentage of failures to get in a maiden on the first outing is often caused by problems of the conventiional tanks that would not have happened with a Hayes.

Many of these tanks I won,t even give away, I would not do that to people. There are also pacific rim ripoffs of hayes out there that can never function as they completely omitted the O ring in their direct copy.
