Edge 540/2.6m
Run your fuel line to the engine taking care to ensure that it doesn’t rub against the fibreglass or plywood
structures. Where you run the fuel line is partially dependant on which engine you choose, and exhaust system
fitted. Please view the pictures below for where the fuel and vent lines were run during our build. All of our fuel lines
were held in place with self adhesive clips and where the line passed through the fuselage rubber grommets were
used.
There is plenty of room on the tank
tray for most if not all of you RX
components. How you arrange this
area we will leave up to you. Given
the wide variation of equipment
available and the personal
preferences of the end user,
covering all possible scenarios
would be difficult.
As an example all of the batteries
on the model used to compile this
manual were positioned up front,
and only the receiver and
PowerBox were fitted to the tank
tray.
Clearly you can fit your RX batteries to the tank tray if you so desire. It is advisable to use the onboard components
of the model to aid in achieving the desired C of G. Obviously you may elect to use ballast to obtain the correct C of
G, but keep in mind a light model will perform better than a heavy model. Our suggestion is to work toward the
lightest overall flying package and avoid adding ballast where possible.
