Thanks again for the feedback. I do like the idea of 4 taps for individual control. If I was to go with the single tap for each wing for simplicity which option is prefered between Opt 1 & 3 cheers I really enjoy building this aircraft. Managing fuel on a trike is simple (one tap) This fuel setup has taken longer than expected. Am I just overcomplicated this?

Really nice setup. If all taps are on, does it self-level? cheers

Hi Neil, You don't have fuel stops in the cabin for each wing, just between the tanks? cheers

Thanks Mark, Like the idea of a fuel gauge for each tank. cheers

Hi All, I appreciate your help. I have read many stories of experienced pilots who get fuel management wrong, so I want to simplify fuel management. I like the idea of running four taps for fuel control, but my only concern is that I will not have an indicator on the outer tanks. I have read that some leave all taps on for simplicity. What is the best way to manage your fuel tanks? There are so many willing to help. I was lucky to meet Mark K a few months ago for advice on my build. Thanks again for your help. Cheers James

Hi All, I am building the right wing and have had many discussions with other builders regarding the long-range tank setup. There are three options I am considering, and I would like to get the views of other builders, Option 1 - As in the manual (16mm connector hose to be installed to join tanks), 10mm connector & hose to be installed to be managed with one tapRight tanks.docx Option 2 - Running two hoses (two taps for each wing using the tank 16mm taps and reduce to 10mm) Individually managed Option 3 - Using the 16mm taps and join and reduce to one 10mm hose (managed with one tap) I have attached photos to assist. Any feedback would be appreciated. cheers James
