Step 1
Glue a piece of 1/2-inch foam to the sides of the fuel tank com-
partment. Glue two pieces of 1/2-inch foam to the upper inside
of the fuel tank compartment so there will be 1-inch of foam
between the upper inside of the fuselage and the fuel tank.
Step 2
Connect the two pieces of fuel tubing to the fuel tank’s pickup
and vent tubes. Note the vent and fuel line.
Step 3
Install the fuel tank into the fuselage. Make any necessary
supports to keep the tank from moving during flight.
Hint: Make sure the rear support brace will not interfere with
the installation of the wing.
Step 4
Attach the muffler to the engine. Make the proper connections
to the engine using the engine manufacturer’s instructions.
