Not much going on until an ignition and some parts arrive. I did get a fresh gallon mixed for my new fueler . Probably fix my problem with the DL50 .

Like the set up the connection of the tubing to the gas can can tell me the supplier is and how it works. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply that looks like a handy way to connect fuel lines to the tank.

I Like it because it was some what easier to install on the gas can. You could just pick up some "Tank fittings" that are available now and individually put on fittings but it may be a little more difficult to reach and smaller nuts to screw in place. My method leaves the gas can cap free from fuel lines and fittings thusly making it easier to fill with gas and oil mix.

That is what interested me is that the fuel cap had no lines on it makes it easier to fill.

That looks like the setup that I have on my gas can. I have been wanting to find another. Now I know. Thank you Kelly for posting that.

Finished up the baffles in the 75" extra. Really happy with how they turned out.

Looking good! Just an FYI.....If you have difficulty locating a new cowl I have a good friend "Raiko Dezigns" who can make your existing cowl look better than new. Probably a little more than the cost of the replacement cowl but his work is "Extraordinary".

Thanks for the input. I'm tempted to repair mine myself but the extreme flight website shows that its only $35 for a replacement.
