Your going to be lucky to find Magnum anywhere either.

I'd say drop the wildcat nitro content if required to. Goto 20% if you have to...

Propower

Stop buying short gallons and feeding the Yankee economy. Buy British

I used my last bit of Wildcat 3DLV today (I use this now), and started a fresh gallon of Wildcat 20%, as this is all I could get until Thursday when the 3DLV is back in stock. Have to say I couldnt really tell any difference using the 20% stuff at my level. Main needle was leaned a bit using the Wildcat 20 but could have been left the same TBH. I do loops, flips, rolls, bit of inverted etc and my hyper ran great on the 20%. I've ordered more 3DLV mainly due to the higher oil content to look after my hypers but the 20% stuff would do unless your doing hard 3D. Magnum is great but I stopped using it as its more expensive than Wildcat, is a bit smokey for me and there wasnt any in the country! And of course the bearing rumour. (Not getting involved in that debate!!!).

Pray tell what is the Model Technics stuff like?

Not had any problems here with ProPower does what it says on the box, a full gallon and the money stays in the UK.

Not used the Weston stuff as it always tended to be expensive...

I think you would find the ProPower a lot different to some of the other stuff they do.

I never liked their buggy fuel but the ProPower is fine
