Has anyone tried something else than methanol/castor mix? The reason I am asking is because I have a place on the Azores islands and you simply cannot get glow fuel there. I could carry the castor oil over but I need something other than methanol as a substitute. I read various old threads here and someone suggested alcohol, has anyone actually tried using it?
If I can't use glow engines there I would have to use electric for the smaller models and a strimmer/weedwackers/chainsaw engine for a large camera plane I want to build. Shame to waste all the glow engines I have kicking around though...
