Used it for the first time today...

do they normally pump/pulsate hard when fuel is going thru them. I had a jersey modeler before and it ran smooth, but this pump seems like she's kickin hard!! LOL

feedback?

Highly Medicated for your protection......

That's perfectly normal as it's a peristaltic pump. Most other pumps are gear pumps and they operate completely differently. Peristaltic pumps are superior since they are anti-siphon and your fuel never leaves the fuel tubing.

I have used the Slimline Boxxer pump for a long time and never had a single issue. They do pulsate some but other than that no problems

It's a complex, costly, glow powered anti-gravity machine!

I have the SL2000 and the only issue I had was using too big of a battery. I ran a 14.8v lipo and it spun so fast that in a few times it messed the rollers up.

Fly it like you stole it!

instructions...

Hi all. I just scored a Slimline 2000 from a swap and I am not sure of the "plumbing"/tube routing. I looked on their website and there were no diagrams or directions only a PDF sheet. I also called them and left a message and no response. Can any Slimline 2000 users give me a hand? Thanks. SHawn

In..... Out.

Hook it up. If it doesn't suck, use the other end.

Just got mine all set up!


Man, this is one awesome piece of Modern Machinery!!

I have 3s Lipo for power, and I simply un-plug it when not in use.

Very Nice!
