One good test is worth 1000 opinions.

I wonder if the (sound) rythum was any good. Must have sounded like a Spanish Maracca..

All the parts needed in one kit to add to the builder supplied Fiji or similar bottle.There will be three kit sizes 16oz, 32oz and 50oz with appropriate length tubing for each. Price and availability to be announced soon but expected to come in just a bit more than the cap and fittings combo already on the website.

This is what is included: Aluminum cap, one and/or two single and double barb fittings, a section of genuine "BLACK" 60 durometer Viton tubing, two zip ties, a section of brass tubing, brass barb and the newly designed PSP custom heavy clunk pick up.

Is there a link for the whole package? Any quantity discounts?

Hey Gary,

John has not set the price just yet but will soon then get it posted on the website. I'm sure he would be more that happy to work with you on quantity discounts. We are trying to do that with all the major stuff to make it easier for guys to upgrade their entire fleet at one time.

I have fox soda bottlecaps on fiji bottles for my smoke tanks and 4rtitude tanks as fuel cells that I got from Aerographixs .I have them in all my planes.On my 50 and 100cc planes I have a bob violet headtank bubble trap ,its a nice little bit of insurance against bubbles and the downline run dry.Not one single leak on any of my planes so far,the only fuel not in the lines or tanks is what I may sloppilie over run or spill.I have them all set up for easy removal too.

Last year I made a couple of these tanks for my 2 planes 50cc and 100cc and they worked perfectly. I am now building another 50cc plane and wanted to duplicate the tank from my first 50cc and now the Meijer store doesn't carry that brand of flavored water anymore. If my memory is right I believe it was right at 20 oz.. What is everyone here using for a 50cc plane (DLE55)? Mark

Mark,

The Fiji bottle says 500 mL (1.05 PT). It's plenty for the 55cc's.
