Well you asked for it in the last community poll!!! In this episode we discuss different fuels different oils and different mix ratios and how they affect our 5th Scale RC engines.
It makes a huge difference I just started running c-12 in my 34 cc reed case engine built by ESP I did one tank of 91 octane then switched too the c-12 ratio 32/1 it’s night and day difference like you said in video she’s angry and happy. 😁
again another great vid for a starter like me, i always love to see your video's. Keep up the good work and give as much info as u can so we can all learn from it, Greetings from the Netherlands ☝☝
So I find that my 1/5 scale redcat rampage mt ran better on the 25:1 VP powermix than the 93 octane fuel and oil mix I currently run and I also went through way less spark plugs lol. 🤣 Maybe I will try the VP c12 and either the motul 800 or amsoil dominator. 😎👍🤛
Ok so I’ve been searching for a place to purchase c12 but came up with nothing because nobody will ship it. Only race fuel I found near me is Rockett. I live in Indiana. Anyone have any suggestions.
hey man i just got a 29cc rovan q shorty and im new to the gas RCs and i was wondering if u new if i can run VP pro-max hi-performance 50:1 ready to use 2-cycle fuel???my local walmart as alot for 6$ a can and i was just wondering if its safe?o and by the way love ur videos and content
I’ve never bought any pre-mixes The most important thing is to know what kind of oil they’re using to mix with whether it’s for lawn equipment or something else. I know a lot of people who run premixed gas like that and have no problems but I don’t do it personally and won’t put my word on the line for it😉
Great video bro, I use around 8% castor oil (Putoline) for my sons 50cc 2 stroke comer engine (kart). If I was to use a small amount of Nitro Fuel can you tell me what mix I should be looking to use with Octane 98 fuel?
@@Meyers2strokeRcgarageyes it contains 16% nitro with 15% synthetic oil (Klotz). The product is called Optimix 16% RTR Nitro fuel. Any advice would be appreciated my friend :)
@@gavinbutchard3479 I would be concerned about over mixing the fuel with oil. If the nitro is mixed 15% and you’re also using a mix of say 25:1 the fuel will be mixed with too much oil.
i picked up some c16 and have a new obr full mod reed 34 on its way what would be a safe ratio to mix at?? 25;1 i want to stay safe!! thanks your channel rocks
No shame in having a head injury I have had one as well I fell off a snowmobile at 90 miles an hour and my helmet strap broke so I consider myself lucky to be alive it happened when I was like 16 or 17
So after Comming across your video ima gonna give 32/1 a try (: Been running 25/1 with amsol interceptor says it’s good for 50/1 but I don’t need todo max specs of what oil can do, if I do try 50/1 I’ll switch up to saber I also wanna switch to saber cause of the fuel stabilizer already mixed into it! I run a custom 45cc zenoah motor (: Temps are around 180c I did get it to 220 for break in. By adjusting carb to idle a bit higher. Great content. I do have 1 question?. When you went back to 25/1 with 40T motor and motol did you feel lose of power? That’s one thing you didn’t touch up on. Lol
Awesome comment bro!!! When I switched back to 25 to 1 with the 40 GT from Taylor RC I did not notice a drop in power at all. In fact I gained power 👍🏼that could be partly because of the Taylor 40 GT is so powerful. I’ve done lots of research, and I found out that two strokes actually make more power running thicker ratios.
I been using sef walmart already mixed 40:1/50:1 burns clean and decent so far original 26cc had gallons of it through it just replaced with a flmlf generic 30.5cc we shall see I broke it in and sent it with the premix
@Meyer’s 2 Stroke Rc Garage great thanks or can I run 91 octane. And 50 to 1 with 2 stroke red line oil what would you recommend 40 to1 or 50 to 1 Thanks for your vids
@@Meyers2strokeRcgarage accident bro., unfortunately, I was in a wreck, too, and flat line my memory ist on point , I keep note lol an give my friends Nick names !
Next time you go to the gas pump notice it always states for example 91 octane using (R+M)2 method or 89 octane using the same method 😉 i’ve never seen them refer to octane as RON at the pump.
