2) Push the two halves together and clamp in place.
3) Do not install the fuel tank as shown in the photo below. This is the smoke tank mounted in
front of the fuel tank(s). The fuel tanks are behind this tank on the CG.
Fuel Tank Installation
Below is a photo of the installation of 2 DuBro 50 oz fuel tanks. TBM now offers a 101 oz fuel tank
suitable for use in the DV8R. If you install the TBM 101 oz tank some of the former needs to be
relieved for installation on the CG. Aftermarket Kevlar tanks are also available. The two 50 oz tanks
mount of their sides as shown.
1) If installing the two 50 oz tanks, cut 4 pieces of Velcro 18” in length.
2) Use hot melt glue to attach the Velcro to the top and sides (not the bottom) of the fuel tanks.
Have the end pieces of Velcro hang down to wrap around the fuselage floor. This makes
installation and removal very easy.
3) The tank(s) are mounted near the CG. The front of the tank(s) is at the front of the former as
shown in one of the following photos.
