    Fuel Tank Size

    And what are the rough AUW of your planes? I am assuming you fly at half throttle or less? Cant get 750 ml fiji here in Canada, only 500 ml and 1 L. 1 L is too much i.m.o. Thats why i am thinking the 500 ml. But as stated it is going to be heavy as most of these builds come in just under 35...

    Fuel Tank Size

    I am currently building a warbird that will be in the 30-35 lb range. I will be putting in an eme 70 twin or dle 85. My question is , how big of a tank would i require for a 7 minute flight with a small reserve? I am thinking a 500 ml fiji water bottle but unsure if it will be adequate enough.

    A few more pics of the build so far. Have yet to decide on an engine, but that will be the last thing i put on it. Robart mains and tail with U.P.3 for gear and doors.

    Ziroli 92" p-47

    After doing a bit of research, it looks like the only twin that would fit is the zenoah gt80. HP wise, it only puts out 6 hp, right inline with a 60 cc, so i am now thinking about a DA 85 single, but that will be the last thing to do so i have some time to figure it out

    Ziroli 92" p-47

    Here you go Bartman, this is the progress thus far. I am building the razorback version and it will be a semi-scale build. I chose not to do the scale hinge points for this build as i just wanted to build it and have it ready for spring. This is my first kit build.
