 Step 12
Carefully insert the stopper assembly into the fuel tank.
Note the position of the vent tube; it must be up at the
top portion of the fuel tank to function properly. Also, it
may be necessary to shorten the length of the fuel pickup
tubing to make sure the clunk does not rub against the
back of the fuel tank. You should be able to turn the tank
to any attitude, and the clunk will fall to the lowest point
(all directions except for having the stopper facing down).
Tighten the M3 x 20 screw carefully—do not over-tighten.
This allows the rubber stopper to form a seal by being
slightly compressed, thus sealing the fuel tank opening.
Note: When installing the fuel tank, make
sure to have a piece of foam at any point
that contacts any structure inside the
fuselage. Without the foam, vibrations will be
transmitted to the fuel tank, which could cause
the fuel to foam. In turn, you will not get the
optimum performance from your engine.
 Step 13
Cut a piece of 1/4" foam the size of the bottom of the fuel
tank. Secure the fuel tank to the fusel tank floor, placing
the foam between the tank and floor.
Note: The longer tabs on the floor face
toward the front of the fuselage.
 Step 14
Secure the fuel tank floor into the fuselage using 30-
minute epoxy.
Note: Once the epoxy has cured it may be
necessary to move the fuel tank forward
or aft depending on your servo location
to prevent binding of the servo.
