What mix ratio? 5%?

I believe if it's 5% mix ration then for 4 liters it's right about 200milliters. However, make sure you get a few responses from RCU members to verify this. My math can be off! lol

It all accords if you are working in US Gallons, UK Gallons or European Litres, JetCat Germany say @ 5% use 1lt of oil too 25lts of Kerosene so 200mlts would be right for 5lts of Kerosene (25/5=5 & 1000/5=200)

Not only that, most of them aren't proficient with 5th grade math.

Years old thread and it still looks like there still is a great divide even though the physical proof is out there in the Turbine oil vs 2-cycle oil debate. With some of the bigger R/C turbine companys finally endorsing 2 cycle oils its stranges that there are still a couple of hold outs to at least say its ok to use one or the other.

Oh well. Everyone is going to use what they want anyways.

Have a great day.

Harry
