90 size fuel consumption

[darryl]

Just a quick poll, to find out how thirsty the average 90 size heli is...

[Tom Burgess]

thirsty

.....but, depends on how big the tank is ???

[raptorheli2]

do you mean a USA, UK, rapicon or optifuel "gallon"?

magnum 30% which is a USA gallon you will get 6 and a bit flights from it on a trex 700.

cheers

[darryl]

just click on the closest average then add what type fuel being used if you so wish.

About 5-6 from a US gallon on a Vibe 90 - bleedin enormous tank behind that canopy.

[Fireball]

I dare not work it out - would hate to know how much its costing me!

[raptorheli2]

£4.50 per flight on magnum 30% atm.

cheers

[Fireball]

Noooo!

Makes me realise that time spent flying needs to be time spent wisely - i.e. actually trying to progress and not just go over stuff you're already happy with.

Of course the price goes up further when you then take repairs into account....

£4.50 per flight on magnum 30% atm.

cheers

Jeebus Paul.. Did you have to..

[Brewber]

Was just thinking, if you need to ask, you can't afford it

I solve that problem for myself by simply ignoring it; all you would hear in my head is la la la la la la la la la la.

I'd guess between 5 and 6 flights per bottle of Coolpower (US gallon).

[electricsceadu]

5 and a bit for me
big tanks plus the header


but i do have a scale with a 90 glow that would use a us gallon in 4 flights

lmao Sounds about right.

[flatspins]

Cost me around £3.50 per flight on Magnum 20 in my 700.

Never had a 90 before though.
Bloody awesome.
Worth every penny

[mark lane]

I smoke fags and drink wine so i'm used to ****ing money against the wall!!!! LOL

Flying is by far the best way to do it though IMO

[jamiem]

a us gallon is 6 flights on the synergy
