The Goldberg Tiger 60 Deluxe I'm building calls for a 12 oz. fuel tank.

When I got the thing home from the hobby shop, it turned out that there was a 14 oz. tank in the box.

Do you think this is going to be a problem? It does fit, a little tight. Can I let that go or do I need to get that down to 12 oz?

Thank you for your time. This is forum is such a great help for me!

Peace

I would have wanted the 14oz anyway. A .60 ST will only run about 10 minutes on a 12oz at wide open. Two oz of fuel wont be much diff in weight so go for it. Make sure you put a little foam around it still. later daveo

it is sort of a 'run of thumb' to go with teh largest tank you can fit. there are exceptions, but for teh most part, go with teh largest tank you can comfortably fit.

A fairly good rule of thumb for fuel tank size is 4 oz. per .20 CID. A lot of us like to fly a little longer so kick it up a couple of ounces. Most importantly be sure to insulate the tank from vibration with foam.
