Re: OS .61 dies when flying inverted

Storm --

    I concur with the others that the tank is too low in relation to the 
carb. However, I'm also aware that you realistically cannot raise the tank

on the Twist. Talking to one of our resident experts at the field today,
he 
said his fix was to rotate the engine sidewise; i.e., the cylinder on the 
right side on the model.

    Ideally, the tank center line should be at or no more than 1/2" below 
the carb spraybar.

    If you still prefer to keep your original set up, an alternate
solution 
is to add a Perry Pump in the fuel system.
