I remember reading in one of the threads as I started the build of my heli that the frame screws needed to be removed and the frames split in order to get the main tank out  .
When I travel to Oahu to fly, I transport my heli in a hard sided travel golf case that I purchased from The Sports Authority. To transport my heli in the travel case I remove the head button, the main blades, the verticle stabilizer, otherwise the heli itself is intact. I also remove all fuel lines, filters, the header tank, and the main tank and wash all those parts with water to clear out any nitro fuel left behind.
The main tank I remove by gently pushing down on the side of the hump just enough to clear the frame and tank gasket. The first time I did that, I thought that I would have to get a new tank  , but when I went to put the main tank back into the frame the shape was not deformed at all  . So I really don't remove any frame screws and split the frames.
