    Ken, that’s what I noticed too and about the liters or gallons, not sure. Wexfordair is right, the pic is a screenshot I took from a competition. https://youtu.be/gbsShMpxXQA

    Looking close up it looks like there may be a dark line running down the bag from top to bottom. Perhaps the vent? Do you know if that is Liters of volume marked out? or gallons?

    That is my concern too, I remember that accident report. I'm just curious about the design of this mast tank, wonder if the vent is internal (long pipe from the bottom up). I see 3 fuel lines at the bottom of the tank, one of them might be the vent...

    Looks neat, but I'm concerned with the positioning of this above the motor. Reminds me of one of the accidents caused by improper fuel tank venting and in flight fire that occurred in Hawaii a few years back.

    One of the things I like about trikes is the exceptional visibility, specially when picking up a field to put it down. I'm also a fixed wing pilot, but prefer flying trikes or anything open cockpit. Too much metal around you (blind spots) when...
