Greetings all,
I am building an aerobatic biplane and need an inverted dry sump oil system. I am looking at an oil accumulator built by MoCal (race car specialists) that will provide oil for up to 60 seconds when the pressure is lost and will recharge itself as soon as the oil is available. I do not plan on being inverted more than 20-30 seconds max. Is this accumulator something I should consider and forget the dry sump tank, inverted valve, remote pump, etc. Or do I do it the old fashioned way?
Thank you,
FlyGuy
