Now its been out a loong time, is it really worth swapping over???? If it givs me the extra kick ill need then maybe, got weston park in afew weeks so if I'm gonna swap, then next weekend must be the time lol

Or shld I carry on with using my rapi30, and before anyone askes if I wld need that extra power, click th youtube channle below lol the ely q vids are the most recent cheers and thanks peeps await to hear what u hav to say

Here is were every Optifuel sponsored pilot chimes in (Which seems to be every man and his dog these days!) and says it is the best thing since sliced bread!! Swapping over to Optifuel 30 SLV gives you more power than ever before and they have never had a fuel give so much power!! Etc...etc...etc.........

Now, to be honest! I've tried Opti30SLV and didn't really see much difference!! Granted i did find a slight improvement in smooth running on my 90 machines but not the Chalk and Cheese huge difference that was hyped about!! So I went back to STD Opti30 as it didn't warrant the extra cost and the hype that all the sponsored pilots gave it!!

I'm back using Opti30SLV now as the STD 30 has to be special ordered and most places just carry the SLV, and the price has been reduced to STD30 price so no great shakes!

For your style of flying Pete you will notice the faster throttle response and extra power through heavy load manoeuvres.
Have fun

thats the sort of answer i wanted lol not a 'its the greatest' answer, just it will suit me or not lol cheers rob

I have recently made the switch from Standard OptiMix30% to OptiMix30SLV and I would probably echo Robs thoughts there, I have noticed a slightly smoother throttle response and a quicker recovery when the engine comes under load.

Switching from Standard OptiMix30 to OptiMix30SLV required no drastic changes other than a slight leaning of the needles a couple of clicks, nothing major.

the only way to know pete is try a gallon and see for yourself, i noticed the faster throttle recovery on the slv compared to standard, but have never tried rapicon so don't know how it would compare

[squeaky pete]

a gallon wont really be enough to find out will it, it will have to be a crate atleast lol

[jamiem]

I'd be surprised if you didn't notice the difference within a few tanks, Pete (after tweaking the needles a touch obviously)

[squeaky pete]

my tuning takes me ages to get right lol the ely 50 with the 55 in it will be the test monster, i know what that is capable of, so i can play on that

Pete, even with that extra power it wouldn't have saved you from the long grass today - still you managed the inverted landing with no damage you git!
