Also, this pointed me to an error in the model. The tanks in the Carenado plane each only hold 22 gallons and 3 is unusable. They should hold 25 with 3 unusuable. So that makes the math 22/8 = 2.75. So you will DEFINITELY be dry at 1/8 with that bug. 

And the placard at the fuel tank selector indicates that the Carenado V35B should be equipped with the optional 80 gallons fuel system. Hopefully Carenado will change that. 38 gallons of fuel is certainly not enough.

I presume that to mean there should be tip tanks?

No, Beechcraft offered two fuel tank systems for the V35B: The standard 50 gallons system and an optional 80 gallons system:

Right now Carenado has modeled (albeit incorrectly) the 50 gallons system. But when you look at the fuel tank selector of the Carenado V35B you can see that the airplane should be equipped with the 80 gallons system (37 gallons of usable fuel and 3 gallons of unusable fuel per wing):

And I hope that they will correct that as it would be nice to do a few longer flights with the V35B :smile:

I am not sure why they decided not to include tip tanks (easy to model and add) but hope they do in the near future.
