Carf rebel pro

Folks, can you please post up your interior layouts. I’ll be getting my plane in a month or two depending on shipping container availability. I’m pretty sure I have all the goodies to go in it. But it helps looking at other folks installs. Also helps in planning my install.

Hello everybody!
I´m thinking about ordering a Rebel Pro. I know that the recommended engine range is from 180 N to 210 N but I certainly don’t need an engine in the upper range. My style of flying is gentle and taking use of dynamic energy in all manoeuvres and I generally think that many of our RC-jets are monstrously over powered. I also fly from a generous grass field.
I have a Kingtech 140 N G2 lying around and I wonder if that would be enough for a Rebel Pro?
Has any of you flown a Rebel Pro with a smaller engine than the recommended 180 N? And if so, what are your experiences?
And no, The Classic is not an alternative.

Consider this, the average finished build comes in at 43lbs. The Kingtech 140 produces 32lbs thrust. The Kingtech 180 produces 35lbs thrust. The Swiwin 190 that I plan on is at 41. Swiwin 220 is at 48lbs.
Low power needs a very efficient wing and light wing loading. Possible, probably… enjoyable… not likely.

Now… Smoke… never installed on a jet before and the last smoke system I installed was 18 years ago. The Rebel Pro is ideal for a smoke system. What did you folks do for smoke tank, pump and tubing to feed it back to the engine? All the info you can provide is appreciated.
This area in front of the engine is where the smoke system will go.
