    I like how I immediately understood why you want less propellant in the tank because it's exactly how the garden sprayer I use to water plants works. As you pump more out there's more gas to pressurize so it runs out slower and pumps the fluid more smoothly. I water my plants by rocket science cool.

    You can use liquid CO2 to pressurize fuel tank. it's 76 atm at standard temp, wich is compatible with Keg pressure limit. A rubber inner tube can be used to separate CO2 from Fuel and Liquid Oxigen. So you can have constant pressure for all the flight.
