Many mfgs say Large ST fuel and have 10% oil which is a castor synth mix, this is no good. For 10% oil content it must be all castor as per ST and I have documetation from ST to back it up. They also state that if a castor synth mix is used it must be atleast 18% total oil content with some of that being castor. I fly both the 2000 and the 2500 and they run perfectly on Omega 15% nitro with 18% oil.

I have found that Super Tigres love 5% nitro. I use nothing but PowerMaster 5% fuel and I get more RPM from the engine and better transition and power. I was able to get an extra 500 RPM on a ST51 by switching from 10% to 5% nitro fuel.

I'm running a 2500 and a 3250 with standard PowerMaster 5% fuel, 18% oil synthetic castor blend. Works great.

Generally the European designed engines work better with little or no nitro, Japanese engines love nitro.

My 2 cents worth.
