YS 160DZ

YS 160DZHi, Derek

I have been using the TET4322FT - STOPCOCK THREE WAY WITH FILTER  you can find this at Rick's R/C Heli at
 http://www.ronlund.com/Merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=heli&Category_Code=Fittings

I use one fuel dot for fueling with a vent line coming out the bottom of the plane I can send you a drawing if you would like me to, this is the best setup that I have found because all you do is turn the switch off for fueling and on for flying.

Let me know

  Thanks Troy.  I agree with the hemostat use... I'm not a fan.

  Derek,

  APC 17-12 Standard works great 8600-8800 on CP 30% heli
  Tank size Tettra 20oz.

  Same fuel consumption as the 140DZ. I get about 11-12mins of sequence flying land with a little fuel. This is about the same I got on the 140's Nothing to notice different.

  Tank layout I will send you a picture of what I do to isolate the tank from the motor when its not running. I don't use the Hemostats. They will pinch the line and crush it. After time they will cause the line to rupture or split at the point where the hemos are used.

  Troy

    I just got one of these motors and I'm looking for info. 

    1.  What prop is best? 
    2.  What size fuel tank?  I know the 140DZ was a thirsty beast so I'm assuming that the 160 is the same, or perhaps they've fine tuned the thirstyness.

    3.  Instead of the using the angled fuel lines that come out the fuse and are pinched off with a set of haemostats. what other ways can one use to pinch off the fuel line to prevent flooding?
