Default Twin engine plumbing setup.

Hi all

A fiend of mine bought two RCV60SP engines and he is going to run them for the first time on a test stand this weekend. He is planning on installing them on a Mosquito.

He asked for some advice on how to set up the plumbing etc. and wants to run both engines at the same time off one tank.

I adviced him against that, I would prefer to use one tank per engine. I don't have first hand experience on a multi engined setup so I am also a tad in the dark on what the best setup would be.

Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

2; unless he wants to duplicate the 662 crashes. Short fuel lines also, so no tanks in the fuselage.
