I would run 25:1 some say 32:1 and some say 40:1, it all depends on the oil they use....and that any story itself...they will all tell you too run Klotz, amsoils, yadda,yadda, etc...... What engine do you have? that is the first question......And personally I run amsoil, cause I can buy I locally, I also run Honda HP2(cause I get it for free) oil and I mix those both @ 28:1 myself with my 29 cc head kit and HPI pipe.....

RE: 1/5 scale Gas-Oil mixture ratio???
The nearest motorcycle shop I have have two kinds of 2 cycle motor oil.
The HP2 and Castor 927. The HP2 oil is 100% synthetic and the 927 is a blend of castor and synthtic. I haven't heard much of the 927 around here, so should I just go for the HP2 or should I concider the 927 ??? I just got a new Zenoah 23cc engine (G230RC) and I am going to brake it in at a mixture of 25:1 and I want to use a good 2 cycle oil and continue using the same oil through out the life time of the engine. Which of the two oils do you recommend I use???
Thanks

Hi I run Klotz Super Techniplate synthetic oil with 93 octane gas with a mixture of 25:1, works great for me never no issues.
