Default RE: YS160DZ with Powermaster 30/23LV heli

Hello Vicente,

Yes, I posted on the YS forum an Troy answered quickly today, but he said he has no experience with Powermaster, and that is the thing, I adjusted my 160 yesterday and because I was not satisfied I tried a method I was recomended by the YS guru in Australia who I met, and that is the reason why I'm wondering about this fuel, I was not convinced about the power at the end.

I used Cool Power with excellents results, is one of my favorite fuels, as is Wildcat which I use for years, but the thing is, I switched to Powermaster for several reasons and the 30/20% worked very very well, I just went to 23%LV because the 160 can handle up to 24% oil, and with more oil I thought it might be better for the engine, I bougt a case of the fuel, and if some one else felt it laked power, then I will sell it and get the 20%, but it can easily be me, maybe I need to tweak the engine a little more, will see.

The Japanese Team used 18% oil form Cosmo, I think it was Black Power, but anyway, they can afford to throw an engine on every round, so I don't know if it runs better or has way more power because there is, of course, 2% more alcohol.


Best regards and thanks
