 |

Hi all,
Im just looking at ordering qb7, just done my empenage. Does anyone
know what the options might be for a bit bigger fuel tanks. Ill
possibly be doing a bit of extended travel. Is it best to put tanks in
when getting initial quickbuild, or afterwards when it gets here?

If you buy the tube-type, you should be able to add them any time. I wet
three bays in the outer leading edges on my slowbuild. That could be
done with a qb, but it would involve some not-so-minor surgery. There's
a guy who builds S-51's (P-51 replicas) from qb kits; he cuts access
holes in the bottom of the leading edge cells, cleans & proseals over
the rivet shop heads & seams, then installs doublers in his holes &
proseals the skin plugs back on. After what I went through to wet my
leading edges, that might have been easier than my method of prosealing
as I built the leading edges.

Engine shopping before I can order the finish kit.

Is Jon Johansson still building his wingtip tanks down there?
Perhaps that would be a good option for you...
do not archive
