Default engine fuel??

I would definitely consider running nitro fuel intended for cars instead of helis. It's probably better on the engine. Most people buy about 20% nitro fuel most of the time.

some nitro engines only require 15% nitro, so you are okay on that part. 20% gives you more power (punch)

Your concern would be the lubricant %. (oil content). Just make sure its enough for the eninge requirements. (I think 15% lubricant is common).
