    Default Smoke Sysyem in a KitFox

    I see KitFox has a smoke system in their catalog. Has anyone installed one and have any pictures? Any idea how much weight it adds?

    Thanks for any info,

    Mike, I had the smoke system on my model 4. The facet pump is the heaviest item other than the weight of the oil itself. Guessing on the weight but I'd say in the 3 to 4 lbs range, oil not included. I used my old poly header tank for the oil reserve mounted behind the pilot seat. I epoxied some of the outlets closed on the poly tank so they didn't leak oil.

    Sorry, no photos of the set up.
