Greetings All.
I am in the beginning stages of fleshing out the design for a pair of fuel tanks of my gyro and was hoping those in the know might point me in the right direction regarding ports, venting, material, etc. I don't recall building them being discussed here in great detail, and I don't want to assume they're simple.
I would like to make them from aluminum sheet of a generous but reasonable thickness, formed and welded. There is an early rendering in post #1 of the Crescendo Build thread that shows them. Fabricating the exact shape is not a problem, but things like internal lining (if any is needed), and other practical considerations would be very welcome. Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Regards,
Brian
