Laboratory vacuum tubing is pretty stiff but still has a little bit of give.

Interesting. I didn’t even think to add nitro tubing on the inside taking stress off the droop screws. Is there a stiffer fuel tube? The one I got from my LHS seems a little soft. Not a nitro guy so I’m clueless about the tubing.

I used 1/8 inch black rubber vacuum line I had at work Iirc not that soft fuel tubing

Well, I know I don't need to explain myself but it just so happened that a couple of hours ago I used some vacuum tubing for shock travel limiters on my own car and figured they fit the bill of what you were asking about. I use them for wax potting guitar pickups to pull a vacuum on the wax so that when the vacuum is released the wax penetrates as deep as possible into the hand wound coils.

This is my homemade guitar pickup winding machine made from a laptop power supply, the trigger and motor from a cordless drill, a magnetic sensor/counter and some stainless steel tube and vaping bits n bobs for the wire guide. It ain't pretty, but it's rare

Well that’s a wrap. She’s officially “done”. Not sure if I’m gonna be able to get out this weekend but I’ll try. I want to at least get a 4s and 6s run in to get stuff squared away.

Well she saw asphalt for the first time today. I was only on 6s on a very short road setting the trim and just getting a feel for her. Seemed to track straight although I only hit 97mph. I was letting the motor cool down and the wind picked up like crazy and it started to rain right as I was about to hammer down on 6s. I saw that as a sign from the RC gods and went home. Still have a lot of playing around with D/R settings and what not to find out what works for me. After my last crash I have the jitters like crazy so I need to work through that.
