Frequently Asked Questions
- Is this oil tank compatible with all FMS Zero models? — This tank is specifically engineered for the FMS 800mm A6M Zero platform. Ensure your aircraft model is the 800mm version before ordering, as different scale aircraft may use different fuel system components. Check your aircraft's documentation or contact FMS support if you are uncertain about model compatibility.
- What fuel type should I use with this tank? — The fuel compatibility depends on whether your A6M Zero is electric-powered or gas-powered. If your aircraft uses a fuel engine, refer to your FMS manual for the recommended fuel specification. If your model is electric, this tank may be a display or scale-accurate component rather than a functional fuel tank.
- Can this tank be used as a replacement if my current tank is damaged? — Yes, this is an OEM replacement component designed to match the factory specifications of the original tank. It is engineered to fit the 800mm FMS Zero airframe without modification and will restore your aircraft's fuel system to factory condition.
- Is installation difficult for a beginner? — Installation complexity depends on your aircraft's current condition and your experience level with RC aircraft assembly. If you are replacing a damaged tank, you will need to disconnect existing fuel lines and mounting points, then reconnect them to the new tank. Beginner builders are advised to consult the FMS manual or seek guidance from experienced RC aircraft enthusiasts before attempting fuel system work.
- Does this tank come with fuel lines or fittings? — According to the product information, the package contains the oil tank itself. You may need to source compatible fuel line and fittings separately if your aircraft requires replacement of those components. Check your FMS manual for the correct sizes and specifications.
- What warranty coverage applies to this part? — Electronic accessories carry a 90-day warranty from the date of delivery, and you are entitled to long-term official technician support from FMS. FMS also offers a 30-day return policy on new and unused products purchased directly, which covers defective items, Dead On Arrival components, and units damaged during shipping.
