Default 110 tank size

I always used a 16oz tank with my YS120 and am now installing a 110 into a Venus II. Would 14oz be about right or should I stick with 16? (Will be using 20-20 or 30% Heli and a Tettra tank)

Thanks

Default RE: 110 tank size

I use a 14oz tank with my 110 and get 10 minute flights. I usually have about 1/3 tank left when I land. That's roughly 1oz a minute. Figure how long do you want your flights to be and go from there.

14oz seems to be the popular choice for the 110. I've got one with a 14oz Tetra tank, but have yet to fly it.

The Venus is heavy, so if you can avoid carrying around extra fuel, it's a good thing.

Is your tank mounted at the CG? Makes the plane fly SO much sweeter! Very easy to do.
