Edit Feeder Fuel Tank Quantity?

Hello,

Using the payload editor with fuel truck, I can certainly edited the wing/center tank quantities, but is there a way to edit the feeder tank quantity as well (besides the default P3D fuel editor)?

 

Thanks.

No, I don't think so, at least not in the same way that you can directly adjust the desired fuel level in the wing tanks (but it has been a long time since I've thought about the Falcon50). However, on the Payload Manager if you select either the LO LEVEL or 50% LO fuel options, the feeder tanks will be at less than their max capacity. The two outside (left and right) wing feeders will be at their maintenance level (at 600lbs which is about 42% of max), and they will be maintained at that level by a float value system as long as the respective wing tank has fuel available to do so ). And the center feeder will be at about 1750 lbs, or 71% of max.  You can then use the Payload Manager again to go back and  "re-adjust" the fuel in the main wing tanks without changing the fuel level in the feeder tanks.

Other than the above, I think you have to use the P3D fuel editor to adjust the fuel in the feeder tanks.
