Hey Guys, Let me tell you what I was planning and then if I need to regroup I will. The bottom of the stub wing has been glassed with 2 layers of KR Glass inside and out. The tanks that I am using are very rigid, I don't expect any distortion from the tank itself (even under a high G load.) The tanks will only hold 6 gallons of fuel and only weighs about 6 lbs. My plan was to let the tank rest on the inner bottom glass while filling all voids with foam, Doing the top this way also.... Sounded like a good plan at first, Now I'm scratching my head. Why would this be any different than 10 gallons of fuel built into the wing itself ? Mike Sylvester kr2s builder Birmingham,AL.
