Fuel Tank:    The Turbinator-2 will accept a wide range of fuel tanks. Pictured here is the partitioned composite 
fuel tank with 70 ounces of fuel and 30 ounces of smoke oil capacity. The fuel tank is not included with the kit 
and can be purchased separately through Boomerang RC Jets.  

 

With 70 ounces of fuel we experience 8 minute flights with plenty left in reserve.  

A Dubro 60-ounce tank will also work great and it is the tank we flew the prototype on. It’s a great inexpensive 
tank that will still allow for 7-minute flights with reserve.  

Be sure to set the tank on the CG location when installing it. The CG is 5.75 inches from the leading edge of the 
wing.  

For tank venting we used a piece of 1/8 inch brass tubing out the bottom of the fuselage.  We installed a balsa 
block to help secure it.  The Smoke tank is vented the same way but is cut almost flush to the fuse to prevent 
confusion when connecting your taxi tank.
