Powering the Revo - Best fuel?

[PRThomasUK]

Hi,
I live in UK and it appears the Traxxas fuel is not available over here... I'm in the process of buying a Revo and was wondering what the best fuel would be? My local store sells "Model Technics Big Bang 30%" which is designed for Monster Trucks and Off-Roaders. Does anyone have any experience of this?

Also, the Revo manual states to break the engine in using the fuel you intend to use all the time. However, my store recomends running in using a lower % fuel and then changing to Big Bang... Anyone got any comments?

The Traxxas site states that their own Top Fuel 33% is ideal for the 2.5R engine. So figured 30% fuel should be good?

Thanks in advance for any help...

it shouldn't really matter what fuel you use. just use whatever is easy to get your hands on.

Response from Traxxas :-

Unfortunately Top Fuel is generally not available outside the United
States. Try to find Blue Thunder 10% or 20%. You can also look for
Modeltechnics Quickfire 16, which is made in the UK. This fuel contains
18% of oil by volume of which 4% is castor. It is available in 10% or 16%
nitro.
