I am putting together a Top Flite ARF Nobler, has anyone used the stock tank that is provided in the kit, and if so, what were the results? Thanks, John Lindberg.

Hi
I would say it matters which tank. The metal original tank was pretty small. The plastic clunk tank was okay size. It isn't as big as it says. It is about 4 3/4 ounces in real life. Mine worked fine on pressure with my LA 40. I tried a tongue muffler that had less backpressure and the difference from upright and inverted was major. There is a difference in the drop of the clunk of about 1/2 inch.

Yeah, I had major problems with engine run changes upright to inverted with the ARF supplied plastic clunk tank. Chucked it, and replaced it with a Brodak Medium wedge uniflow.
