I've got to get some fuel for the REVO today to start the running in procedure, as my old fuel is a little out of date.
Anyone go any recommendations, of brand / nitro percentage, and the best place to get it locally, as I've not been to Shaun's before and haven't been to Heaths for a few years.

horses for courses really mate.
nothing wrong with tornado 20 for running in...
best thing would be to ask at the model shop, as the last time i bought fuel it was model technics stuff and i have noticed things have moved on in that area quite rapidly...
give Heaths a ring and ask them would be best!!!
Dazza (cant wait to see the Revo flying along mate)
- i'll run it in for you if you like!!!! lol

Are all the fuels still mineral oil based, or have the progressed onto Synthetic yet? as that's what I run in the planes, the book recommends between 10-20% or even 33%
they just recommend sticking to the same brand and Nitro content.
