Default RE: do i need to change fuel?

Yeah, there was a pretty good thread going last week about cleaners and the formulas that many RC folks use... but it's always nice to hear about someone else's success stories. I ought to build a database of cleaners... [X(] just kidding, of course.

Some switch to electric because of the goo on the wing and fuselage, but that has it's drawbacks too. I fly both but prefer glow and live with the mess.

But, your point was well taken. That goo is is a necessary disadvantage. For instance, S&W is red. So, the goo that I see on the wing is red. If it is black or gray, well, that starts to point at something going wrong.. any change in color (after initial break in, that is) could give you some clue as to there being something wrong.

So, tlojak38 , don't fret about the crap on the wings... take a good look at it and just clean it off once done for the day.. or whenever you want.
