Ah, thought, is the air tank a light weight way to pressure the smoke tank instead of a pump?

Dart,

For sure he likely flies his precision with that weight on and takes it off for the freestyle.

Two years ago I seen the Sebastiano method. It was a 1lb weight screwed to the firewall for pattern and three wood screws and it was off for the free style.

Confirmed. The retract cans are to release the streamers for his freestyle. Very intuitive for a Kiwi that speaks Spanish and lives in Chilie.

Whether its good intutition or a flook makes no difference. If Banks or Russo dont get the scores up here soon I'm going to be too drunk to read them.

I need to come up there and kick some butt next time.

Hello,

The airtank is to pop out the caps on the wings tips for the ribbons to exit.
