Need advice on fuel

I've been running 10% Morgan fuel with my YS 61-R/ tuned pipe. Wondering if 20% Morgan Cool power Heli 100% snythetic would work, trying to get more power and I run the 20% heli in my four strokes and it works great. any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks, Pete

RE: Need advice on fuel

The short answer is: YES.

YS recommends 20/20, which is 20% nitro and 20% oil. A number of manufacturers mixed this for YS fliers. You can run on 10-15%, but the YSs really want more.
I used to run 30% CP heli in my copters and cut it down with 15%CP for my pattern YSs. I would add some oil as well. You may want to do an evaporation test on your fuel to figure out the oil percentage.
