Default Zenoah G26, Fuel Tank

I just got a G26 to put into my Phaeton 90.

I haven't done it yet but has anyone done a timed test to see how long it will run at high speed to determine how many ounces per minute?

I figured that if I knew the maximum time I have on a certain size tank then when normal flying i'd know when to come down.

I'd like to get 20 to 25 min on a flight.

I'm thinking about a 24 oz tank?

Any problems with running the Zenoah G26 for that long?

Thanks for the help,

That should be good for about 45 min. to one 1 hr. with that size tank...
Guarintee',,,you'll be tired before it's out of gas...with that size tank

It'll drink somewhere in the 1/2 oz per min...at full throttle..
