Default nitro content advice

Hello all, I am currently stationed in south korea and am getting back into flying. I am planning to buy an irvine .72 in the near future. The only fuel that we have available to us here is power master 15% at 30 bucks per gallon! ouch!!!! will the nitro content hurt this engine more than the price hurts my wallet? thanks

Default 15% nitro

You should be ok with using this fuel, just be careful and run her slightly richer than you normally do.

When I was in Yongson, the only fuel available that I knew of was from the hobby store in Yongson near the military bus station. They carried K&B fuel (no longer made). I flew along the Han River in Seoul, nice strip, nice forced landing area (water).
Take care
