These carbs are sent out with the fuel intake pointed anywhere but at the fuel tank. But the pumps are strong so I just plumbed it up. Had to drill a hole in the snorkel to keep the fuel line away from the mufflers:
Yesterday morning, labor day morning, I sent an email to Aircraft International asking about it, out of curiosity. I didn't expect to hear back on a holiday. But, Gerhard replied back in minutes saying they do come that way from 3W Germany. But, he said that you can carefully rotate them. I tried but didn't think I could get it to rotate without breaking it. I emailed Gerhard again and he replied saying that if I wanted to try harder and ended up breaking it he would send me a new all steel after market fuel intake nipple. I then had the confidence to go ahead and turn it. It turned, thanks Gerhard!

I love the look of this plane! So aggressive! Ready to F''n go, man! haha Damn, I want to fly this thing!
It is worthy of mention that the fit of the wings and stabs, and the wing tubes & anti-rotation dowels, and the cowl & canopy, is flawless! Has that master builder custom plane fit. Nothing to adjust or dremel... perfect out of the box.
Plane looks ready to go, but there's still a lot of work left to be RTF. And, most important, the graphics are not all here yet!
Still I'm thinking photo-shoot (probably not 100% RTF) on Friday. Maybe maiden on Sunday after wrenching on it all day Saturday... we'll see.
