Default RE: Benifits of gas over nitro

Every time i fueled it and smelled the gas i got headaches. My car smelled a couple of days after coming back from flying field. Once my wife almost puked from this smell.
Having recently moved from glow to gas with one of my helicopters, I was worried about the same problem. I have a 1/3 Cub with a 100cc twin gasser and it made my model room stink after a weekend of flying. I was introduced to Colemans fuel, and it is a godsend. No smoke at all, no smell and burns very very clean. The TAS 28 in my giant B47G loves this fuel. although it is a bit more costly than normal gas, its still way cheaper than glow fuel. we traditionally pay more for gas here in Australia than everywhere else in the world, but at AUD$15 a gallon, its still heaps cheaper than nitro fuel. (we average around $55 a gallon for glow fuel.......... depending on nitro content)
