Suiper Techniplate should work well enough. You want to run 20% oil by volume and at least 20% of that oil (ie: 4% of the fuel) should be castor. Super Techniplate has a blend of castor and synthetic that will give you about that ratio. Straight castor (BeNol) is unnecessary and may cause valve-sticking/coking. Straight synthetic (Techniplate) will cause prepature wear of the cam and lifters.

unfortunately the hobby shop here in singapore only has Original TechniPlane (KL 200) and KL 310. could i use this instead? thanks

Yes you could run KL-200 by itself provided you run a sufficient amount, and that you avoid excessively lean operation. This is a good idea anyway regardless of what type of oil you choose. Those of us who prefer at least a little castor in our 4C fuel, would simply withhold a few ounces of the synthetic and add in it's place a suitable castor such as BeNol, or Bakers AA.
