I was searching through and it looked like it has been a while since we did a favorite fuel poll. Hopefully I didn't leave any out. So, vote for your favorite nitro airplane fuel and post why you like it!!

I have used Omega, and although it leaves a gummy go on the plane , it has worked the best for me.

Wow, "other" has received as many votes as anything else. For those of you using other, what brands are they??

I have broken in all my engines with 15/18 powermaster, never any fuel related problems. Have tried omega, its good too. Tried wildcat 15/18 like it too, not much difference between the three, I just stick with the master. Always game to try something new for kicks...

I think the master is best, although I use mostly wildcat, since I cant get powermaster locally.

Omega here and the reason for using it is that is the cheapest I can find locally. I don't think I can beat $10.99 for a gallon of 10%. I tried Powermaster an it ran just as good as omega, but more expensive. I use cool power in my heli because I hate the muffler turning brown from the castor oil.

Cool power is for me, the price is right and it burns very clean

I've run CoolPower / Wildcat / PowerMaster / and Cooper... I found COOPER and Powermaster to have the most power and run the best/// Have talked to the Guy who owns and mixes Cooper and coundn't ask for a better guy... He went out of his way with answering questions for me... If you get the chance look up Cooper and if you get the chance talk to the guy... He's the best... As long as he makes fuel... He's got my $$$

Yes,
That would be our very own Fuelman.
I ordered a couple of cases of custom C/L mix from him a few yeas ago,and he shipped it before I paid him.
How can you beat that?
