My '6 will be fitted with Inverted Oil and F.I. Sooo, I need to have a flop tube in at least one tank.
The plan as it stands is to fit the flop tube in the Right Hand tank only and leave the left with a "plans" setup.
My logic in fitting to the right side is that '6 aeros are only legal one up, and the "one" in question will sit on the Left - so best to have the fuel on the right for lateral balance (I'd generally Aero with minimal fuel on the left for best performance).
Just looking around it seems that a lot do this the other way around i.e. flop tube on the Left.
Am I missing something ?. Is there a particular reason why left is best ?.
