My Posts This: Topic Forum | We've been suggesting to run 6 oz of synthetic oil, like Pennzoil 100% synthetic Outboard Marine Engine oil for over 5 years now.
Yes it DOES take longer to break in, but during the break in process we don't limit you to just hovering around, go fly the heli, setting up your idle ups, curves, etc, and enjoying flying the helicopter.
After 2 gallons of gas run through the engine, then take your oil content down to 5 oz per gallon.
Someone posted here on RR, a video of my Gasser on youtube with the FBL head on it. That heli is running with 5 oz of oil per gallon.
Apparently with a high efficiency cooling fan, you can get away with this...
