UAT-250 is a CNC-machined RC air trap that separates air from the fuel line. It keeps the jet engine's fuel supply uninterrupted and reduces the risk of a flame-out caused by air bubbles.
Why do you need an RC air trap?
During manoeuvres, fuel moving in the tank carries air bubbles into the line. When air reaches the pump, the engine runs dry for a moment and can flame out. An RC air trap separates the air from the fuel so only fuel reaches the engine.
- Body: Al 6061-T6, anodised
- Connection: 4 / 6 mm fuel tubing

Fit the RC air trap between the tank and the fuel pump. Secure the tubing with clips and fill and bleed the line before the first run. Our fuel line fitting set covers the connections.
RC air trap FAQ
Does it fit every jet model? It fits most models using 4 or 6 mm fuel tubing. Two M3 screws are enough for mounting, and the compact body fits tight spaces.
Does it need maintenance? Check the tubing connections and sealing at regular intervals. As long as the inside stays clean, no special maintenance is needed.
Air trap or felt clunk? You can use both. A felt clunk reduces air picked up in the tank, while the RC air trap removes the air left in the line before the engine.
