Section 11: Fuel Tank Installation

25

Required Parts

• Fuselage assembly

• Fuel tank assembly

• Fuel tubing (red and green)

Required Tools and Adhesives

• Foam: 1/2"

Step 1

Glue a piece of 1/2" foam to the sides of the fuel
tank compartment. Glue two pieces of 1/2" foam to
the upper inside of the fuel tank compartment so
there will be 1” 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
tanks pickup and vent tubes.

Hint

: Connect the red tube to the vent,

and the green tube to the pickup. If you
forget, just come back to this paragraph to
remind yourself.

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.
