I want to know what size tank i need for the 210? Figure 10 min of 3D flying with a little extra to spare. What is the best hand starting procedure on this engine. Is it better to use a break in oil before i go synthetic or is it okay to go to pure synthetic right away? I got the engine today and is amazed of the size. I'm gonna have fun with this one...

Thanks
Smokey

Best hand starting...start with rich needles (not sure what settings that is). 5-5-1 method. 5 flips full choke, wot, ignition off. 5 flips no choke, wot, ignition off, 1 flip no choke, high idle, ignition on.

32:1 of any good oil, synth or regular for break in. 40:1 after break in. I will prolly just continue to run 32:1 on my two ZDZ's forever.

Roughly how much gas will i have left with a 50oz tank on a 10 min. 3D flight?

Thanks

you will be burning about 3 oz a min at the most doing that type of flying... if you were to burn 5 oz per minute at full throttle you would be dry at 10 min.

Yes, we would recommend anywhere from 50-64oz

Where do you get 50 to 60 oz tanks?

and the local hobby store are a few to consider

I missed that for some reason in my web searching? I'm a little cramped for room because of rear induction on the ZDZ 120 B2RV. Could I stand it on end with the connections up? If so then I would be at the CG point, otherwise she'll be pretty far aft of CG.
