Patriot40 build, a few problems...
Hi all,
I recently started building a Patriot 40, the build is rather easy and pretty straight forward.
i plan on fully sheet the wing, glass and paint.
i also designed and built fillets in order to reduce drag
already got my retracts with shock absorbing struts... very nice.
am planing on mounting a high performance 50 sized engine, still trying to decide if i go with the Rossi 53 or the JETT 50 (the JETT 50 looks promising).
but, with these high performance engine, i will need a bigger fuel tank.
there is no room up front for a bigger tank and i though about mounting the tank right above the CG point.
does anyone have experience with the VP30 PERRY pump with the above stated engines? if it works, i wont have any problem mounting the tank anywhere i want.
any thoughts on this subject are welcomed.
Thanks
Raviv.
