Inverted fuel systems

Postby Ecko » Fri Jun 02, 2006 7:44 pm

Hi guys! :)


I actually think this is my first post ever in the 'Aircraft & 3D Design' forum, funny, considering I have almost 2900 posts! :o ;D

Anyway, here this late night, almost 3 AM here in Denmark, I looked at the thread a few steps down called "Turbocharging" (http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb/ ... 1149269874).

Reading through the thread I realized making an aircraft a bit faster seems like a piece of cake, so I had to try it. :D
I thought the Piel Emeraude CP301 would be the perfect aircraft to "pep up" a bit, since I've always a nice CAP10 for FS9 and the two look very much alike.

So after a bit of twitching, just 20 mins actually, I'm pretty happy with the result, I also fiddled a bit with the aileron-, rudder- and elevator-effectiveness. She now flies beautifully and is very capable when it comes to aerobatics.


But, and here comes the "10-words-question" after twenty lines of blabbering:

How do I make the fuel tanks capable of inverted flight?


Thanks for your help! :)
