Mix the oil with the alky, then mix with the nitro.
50% = 1/2 gallon nitro plus oil and alky mix. If the daytime temp is below 40/50 degrees then add 5% propylene oxide. I like Klotz Syn and bean oil lube. Dozens of good oils. Buy the alky in 55 gal drum to get a good deal. Store the fuel in heavy duty plastic jugs in a darkened cool area. Chinese nitro is the best. You're on your own!!!!!
Why bother. You can't mix fuel as pure or cheap as the excellent brands like Morgan, Red Max, and Wildcat. Dr.1 Driver "There's a Hun in the sun!"
Anybody use car-specific fuel like Blue Thunder 20%? I keep it handy for my cars....can i use it or should i get a gallon of 'plane-specific' fuel? The only other fuel my local guy carries is Cool power (green stuff) not sure of nitro content. I will be getting a donated goldberg eagle in the near future, and my co-worker is building his first plane now...so we will need something.
Aren't there a few drops of "Sinister Sauce" and "Essence of Terror" in there as well? ;-) Mike
I have, and it's good fuel, but tends to be cost-prohibitive. Dr.1 Driver "There's a Hun in the sun!"
Morgan is Cool Power, and DR1 is correct.
