Mon: 2 tank
Tues: 2 tank
Wed: 3 tank (more like 3 * 0.8 tanks)

I tend to rest 30 minutes in between tanks. Sitting there doing maintenance or looking at the planes... or the Brides... (today got 3 or 4!!!)

Wah! You Guys Chin Ho Mia!! I only average 2 tanks a week man!! Surprisingly I still manage to hover!!

Han... my Flights Operations Officer gave clearance to fly till next week only. So I am making the best use of it.

Thereafter.. I will be down to 0-1 tank per week.

I am into my 3rd gallon now.

Guys, what fuel do you recommend on the tt50?
looking at rotor cool power and wildcat or sig from jethobby.
pls advice.

[nic]

Most of us swear by Coolpower (Rotor/SHS), 15% or 20%...

Some of us swear by Powermaster....

Think it is very much your personal choice, and how you tune your engine.

Personnelly,...sell the TT for about $180....top up $60...get an OS50...run it on CP 15%....

A world of difference....

Thanks for the advice, but i think i will stick to the tt engine first since i'm not doing any serious manuvoeres anytime soon. cut on cost and i heard the tt is better on fuel consumption.
got to put aside a budget for spares, hehe, never know what will happen next!

take your time in running in the engine properly

[nic]

Actually I heard enough of TT50 that makes me want to "swap" it for a OS50 too, that is if I have one. It will be much easier selling it new than used.

I've also heard some not so nice things about OS50s.

yesssssss.u made the right choice.TT50 is the best.u could get 20mins of hovering time.

there is this definations :-

"GOOD is not CHEAP" & "CHEAP is not GOOD".

but for TT50 will be "CHEAPER & BETTER".

enjoy.
