Dunno if this would be the right forum but here goes, I have nitro planes, a raptor 30 and nitro cars and am tired of buying 3 fuels.I would like to use the same fuel in the heli as the plane's. have been using 15% in both for a while, is there any real difference in the heli fuel and plane fuel? if so you think it would be better to use the heli fuel in the planes or the other way. thanks

I do the same 15% cool power in both. Cool power sells a Multi viscosity fuel at Tower that has a tad bit more oil but I just use 15% from my hobby store with no issues so far. My hawk smokes alot less too and doesn't run hot. Also Heli Fuel is too pricey for me and a bit hard to find. At my store it is like $6 more a gallon.

I run 15% Omega on all my stuff, 30 size heli, all my planes 2 and 4 stroke and even my buggies (I don't race them)
I don't fly 3D so super performance is not an issue.

ok thanks, I didnt figure there would be an issue, just wanted some opinions.Thanks

i run 30% heli fuel in my helis, 15% heli fuel in my planes, and 30% heli fuel in my RC off road car. I could use 30% in all my aircraft, but I bought a lot of 15% and I want to burn it.

When that is gone, I'll be happy to buy 15% airplane for the airplanes and 30% heli for the helis.

For helicopter use, I would not run anything less than 18% oil content. If your fuel has this oil content, then no problem. If you don't know, better go with the fuel that is labeled "for Helicopter use".

same goes for cars, 18 persent oil is better. but yes i run cool power 15 persent fuel in all.
