F1 fueler system & showtime

Model Airplane News,  Aug 2002  

Formula 1 racecars can be refueled in about 8 seconds; you may not need to fill up quite that fast, but Slimline's Fl Fueler System will speed your time in the pits and make refueling more convenient than you ever thought possible. The idea is simple; an aluminum intake fitting is mounted in your model and is connected to your tank via a length of fuel tubing. A brass fill nozzle-precision-machined to match the intake fitting-connects to your fuel supply. The nozzle is sealed against the fitting with two fuel-safe gaskets, and an audible click lets you know that it's locked in; your hands are then free to work your fuel pump. When your tank is topped off, disengage the nozzle, and snap a gasket-sealed cap into the intake fitting. The Fl system is available for glow or gas, and it comes in four colors.

For those of you who want to show off, check out the Showtime self-contained smoke system. This unit features a programmable flow rate that's controlled by your transmitter. The pump, I battery and electronics are an all-in-one unit, and the quick-connect system makes it fast and easy to mount.
