Default Attaching BVM external smoke tank?

Hi,

Does anyone know how BVM has you attached that external smoke tank he sells? Does it come with a pylon and some way of bolting it on?

Thanks in advance,

I believe he sends you plans for building the pylon and you will have to install hardpoints in the fuse to bolt it to. Did one for the Bobcat XL back in the day.

Matt,

You built up the pylon and installed a couple of aluminum threaded inserts that were knurled on the outside. I remember Bill Harris Launching one off his Bobcat years ago at Winimac in a hard pullout. I still have one new in the box if you are interested.
