Kyosho Caliber 30 & 60 - Concept - Nexus > Header tank setup on caliber 30,,,any ideas?

I have looked at putting a header tank on my Caliber 30 but haven't found a decent mounting setup. I put one on directly under the main tank and everything was good except it would go too lean near the end of a tank. They are supposed to be mounted at same height as main tank which doesn't leave me any good way to mount it. I'm sure someone has come up with a more creative solution than I have. The biggest hassle with this heli is getting to the fuel lines to refuel it.
Thanks,,,basmnntdweller

I would be interested in how to set one up on a caliber 30 as well.

I think of the header tank as a bubble trap, not a reserve fuel tank. On my Concept 30, I have it mounted well below the fuel tank... The trick is to land BEFORE the main tank runs out, not after. :-)

Opinions differ... but that's mine.

What I did on my Kalt Baron was just to silicone a 2 oz tank to the side of the tank and secure with zip ties passing thru the frame between it and the tank and around the tank. Never had a problem with it and it was on the same level as the main tank so would think it would work on the Caliber as well.
