[NSRCA-discussion] Coolpower fuel

[Matthew Frederick]

Adrian,

I have used the 20% when my local hobby shop was out of the 30%. Little to 
no noticable difference, if I had tached it I might have seen an RPM drop, 
but just flying I really couldn't tell. I used it in both a 140 FZ and the 
140 DZ.

Matt

>>As most of you know, most of us down here 'mix' our own fuel using the

>>even that is now Chinese nitro, as there are no more Nitro factories open 
>>in the U.S??? Anyone know?
>>
>>I personally have had better results using the higher viscosity oil (Blue 
>>in colour).
>>Yes-you may loose a little bit of top end power, (I cant really prove it 
>>however) but for me and my conditions, the engine seems happier. It runs 
>>'fluffier' and sounds smoother in the air. It just doesn't seem as 'angry' 
>>if that makes sense. But, I do have a bit of oil (more) on the fuse after. 
>>I can hear the electric boys groan already!
>>
>>As for the pre-mix that you are talking about, I can't say, as I do not 
>>know if there are any other 'secret' ingredients added to it. I personally 
>>don't use it, unless I am at a comp overseas....and that was a while ago 
>>now!
>>
>>Why don't you just try it and see how you go. I just like mixing fuel 
>>myself-that way I control exactly what is going in there. You can also 
>>adjust things a little to suit. If you are asked," how much Nitro?" I 
>>usually answer "10% more than you!" L.O.L

>>To all,
>>
>>I have been using Coolpower 30% nitro/ 22% low vis oil heli fuel for over 
>>6 years with good results. However, I would like to try their 20% nitro 
>>heli fuel.
>>
>>Instead of low vis oil, the 20% nitro blend uses 20% ultra-high vis oil, 
>>similar to the 30% heli low smoke fuel.
>>
>>Has anyone try the 20% blend on both the regular & the cdi 170? Any 
>>difference besides lower top end? Does the ultra-high vis oil makes the 
>>engine runs warmer? Do I need to richen the pump slightly?
>>
>>Thanks in advance for the reply.
