Wasn't happy with fuel tank fittings so i changed them to festo for quick access for future servicing of the tank/clunk

Old tank

New tank fittings

Engine bay hatch door didn't come hinged nor are there hinges included in the kit so this will have to be done yourself.

Engine hatches on Viperjets usually get attached with small screws. Once everything is up and running you shouldn't need to access it very often.

Hi boys,
I have ordered one of these, but it doesn’t come with the internal ducting any more. Is this an issue? Can still cancel! I mean the ducting from the intakes to the front of the turbine. |

I measured the tank, it is 2.8litres. I am putting a 140 in mine as well and have the same question.... is that enough, what would the flight time be?

Digging in to the RC Jets World Viper thread, it has the same size tank. One guy claims 7 minutes with a Jet Central Cheetah and throttle management. Seems reasonable to me. |

Jets Munt claim .5 litres a minute for the 140 in the user manual so I think I will be replacing the tank for one with around 4 litres capacity. I get an easy 10 minutes with this turbine in my Xcalibur plus with a 4.6 litre tank with plenty left for a few circuits if needed before landing.

Hi guys,
Going to stick in a slightly bigger tank. Has anyone got pictures of the interior of theirs? I know where some of the wood pieces go, but not all of them. I emailed pilot rc but haven’t got a response yet. Would certainly help me work out where to put everything! Thanks, Corinne |
