extra 300

My Feedback: (3)

Hello,

I am in the final phase of completing my FeiBao Rafale. I have installed 2 smoke tanks on top of fwd section of turbine and lower part of Bypass attached (actually only fitted) to tailpipe mouth.

I am not comfortable with 2 issues:
1) are smoke tanks too close to turbine? will they melt due to heat or is it safe enough to install as is? (red arrows on photo)
2) Should i fix tailpipe to bypass with screws/nuts or other or should i live setup as is bearing in mind that tailpipe is secured to turbine mount (blue arrows on photo).

Thanks for your input and suggestions.
Regards.

The smoke tanks are ok since they are at the cool section of the turbine. I would screw the bypass to the pipe thu. Nice clean intsall...

Ehab,

Thanks for the input. Will it be enough to install screws only on top section of pipe view bottom is not accessible anyway?

Thanks again.
