    Why do you use HV and / or why don't you?

    I have been running HV unregulated from 2S LiPo's and the only chattering I had was with 7955's. Since changing to Savox 1256's and later to the 1270's I have not had any chattering.

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    Sounds like I have been doing too much maintenance on my Fiji's as I have been replacing the internal lines every year. It's not work for me however as I love tinkering.

    Hey Rez, I am in this for the drawing but also wondering where to get the nice Redline decals too?

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    Thanks Terry I am hoping to maiden it this weekend. Right now the 25.7 oz Propel (round) tank is in it (see below). I have the Fiji 32 oz standing buy as well and I did buy the SWB tank fitting for a 24 oz Dubro that I may or may not use for reasons like you mention. I need to maiden it quick...

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    No sir I have "always used Fiji bottles" with PSP fittings. If you read my initial post I was only commenting on the wording Big weight savings and I simply compared that big is really relative as when some people fly having 20+ minutes of fuel on board, or use twin 500+ mAh batteries or blink...

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    Exactly and that was my point the added weight of batteries, fuel capacities for super long flights and weight from bling. I have never used a Dubro tank in a gas plane. I am giving it a thought for the first time because I cannot find a square 24 oz tank. Before you say use a 32 oz tank and...

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    Terry are those both 32 oz tanks? You should pull the extra two Tygon lines off the Dubro to be fair though. But I have never implied they would be equal and am not making that argument. I fly 24 oz tanks as I do not merit the extra flight time of the 32 oz. That's 8 oz of savings for me.

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    I am having small issues with your comment "big weight savings". Is there a weigh saving, yes I am sure but Big, I don't think so. I am finishing up a 91" EF Extra and in doing a lot of reading I see people using 24 oz tanks and 32 oz tank for the most part. I also read how much fuel is left...

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    You don't see very many 3-line setups with the fill/empty connector is at the bottom. The PSP fittings have a nice viton o-ring so should not be a problem. What I like about it is you don't need that inside tube going from top to bottom to get in the way of the main pickup. If I can make...

    Rant......Pre assembled fuel tanks.

    I am curious for those that are using the DuBro tanks what seal are you using? Is the DuBro gas seal okay? I have toyed with the idea of using one with the SWB or PSP aluminum cap and use my PSP fittings through the top of the tank.

    DA-70

    Another question for you guys as I did not notice this before and no mention of this in the manual. Lock washers for the prop bolts - they were not provided. Doing some searching I have seen some un-documents posts that DA does not recommend them but I have not seen this from DA. Do you use...

    Tech-aero IBEC question

    Bypass the IBEC with a direct battery connection and see if that fixes the problem.
