Default Which 20% Nitro fuel to use?

Remember that Blue thunder is only 10% oil!!

BT is specially formulated with .21s in mind. I wouldnt run them in .12s.

Remember that the surface area of the sidewalls of a .21 isnt much bigger than a .12 but the volume IS! (theyre not linear).

more volume= more fuel mixture= more oil.

So with a .12, your effective "oiling rate", if you will, with BT is actually a bit lower than with a .21.

So for a .12, BT is a little too dry!!
