i would personally suggest that even thou modelsport fuel is ok, go for the byrons 25%! Its what most people seem to recommend.

especially seeing as youll have a nice new model etc.

Don't go for 16% otherwise your hyper will perform like a tractor and you want either Byrons, O'donnels, Optifuel or Tornado

Whatever you do DO NOT EVER EVER EVER EVER............EVER EVER use Model Technics big bang fuel, its an engine killer and it'll ruin your tune

are u always going to get fuel online? as none of london modelshops i've been to stock optifuel. Byron gen2(use myself in all my nitros :good: ) is more available so best to go with that IMO.

well modelsport are pretty resonable! Best to buy the stuff in 2 gallon lots as it saves postage! worth it in the long run as you wont buy any for ages! Also to let you know nitromethane wont go bad either as it can last in excess of 100 years @ the same consistancy providing the bottle is sealed! Only thing that does evapourate slightly is the methane. so buying in large quantities is perfectly fine even if u dont use it for a while!

But r46 i do see where you are coming from! It does stop the "oh damn ive run out, lets nip to my lhs for more" i ends up more "oh damn ive run out lets wait a couple days for it"
