It's not all over for nitro just yet........

The problem is Andy is not making 30%ULV for public use it's only for sponsored pilots, which is a shame as it is a great fuel that can give electric a run for there money.

Rapicon do 30% High Performance Fuel for helis. if thats what you want or am i missing somthing here and the opti 30% ULV is way better?

Anyone have any power specs on a 120??

You're all power mad !

My 20% SLV gives me a bucket load of power, most of which I can't use yet.

I got an MP5 pipe on an OS50 and it gives me the shakes as it is. My OS55 with a Hatori pipe has nowhere near the power it just goes to prove you don't need rocket fuel if you have a good pipe.

The problem with ULV is the cost. When I last spoke to Andy he was thinking it would be to expensive for retail sales.

Having spoke with Andy this weekend about this very subject, he still has no plans to release ULV for public consumption just yet for a number of reasons, not least of which they are working on yet further advancements on the fuel/oil we use Watch this space I guess

Didnt Tim Jones run a YS120 700N against a 700E for comparison? IIRC after the immediate start burst of the "E" there was nothing between the two on power.. I'll see if I can find the vid...

Heres the Vid...

I'd love to try a 120 Jimmy. Maybe after champs

Guys,

Pete is correct as is Paulice (who has tried ULV) it is only for contracted pilots at this time for a number of reasons not just cost which I will not bore you with today. Please came and chat about it at the Champs and I will fill any interested pilots in on developments.

There are lots of things happening in R&D and we are pushing the limits in testing even further than than ULV!!!!

We just received our factory supplied YS120 for fuel testing this week with a Hatori 120 3D Pipe and I was hoping we might show that flying on a completely new development fuel at the Champs but I don't think we have time to fit it run in and test with the other R&D stuff we need to complete next week, might have a surprise for you at Charmouth however and I am fully expecting the 120 and new super brew to out perform electric!

We will see, might just end up stripping gears for fun!

Anyway free fuel (30SLV) for those competing next weekend at the Champs and happy to discuss the ULV fuels and of course we will have plenty of lithium with us as well for the more discerning electric pilots!

Yea seen the vids and they look good just no data.

I reckoned it would be around 5.5 hp and that would put more inline with a typical 50/600E setup. Very interesting times when the 120 comes out. Are there prices for it yet as well?
