ABOUT MAGNUM FUEL
Magnum Fuel was started in 1985 by Henry ‘Buzz’ Butler. Buzz is an avid modeler, participating in many aspects of RC including Sport, Pattern, Scale and most recently, Helicopter. To quote Buzz, ‘I have always been interested in engines and what makes them run well, so it was a natural for me to begin experimenting with model engine fuel. It wasn’t too hard to figure out it was easy to make a good fuel, the hard part was how to make a ‘great’ fuel. There are many small detail things that go into the final product to create a consistently running, cost effective fuel that performs well at any altitude and provides excellent wear protection without sacrificing performance.’ Initially, Magnum Fuel was only available in and around Denver. In 1988, Buzz introduced a new fuel called Magnum #1, #2 and #3. It provided a significant boost in power and cooler running engines. A lot of people wanted to know how much nitro was in each, but to this day, Buzz still keeps that a closely guarded secret. Needless to say, the price performance of the Magnum #1, #2 and #3 soon had people outside the Denver area ordering his fuel. Not only did they like the extra power (price performance), but they also discovered his lubrication package was extending the life of their engines. In 1989, Magnum Fuel relocated to a new shop at 1400 W. 70th Ave., Denver, CO 80221, which houses Magnum Fuel manufacturing facilities and also HeliPort Hobbies. Magnum Fuels are manufactured from the finest ingredients available. People constantly ask about the ingredients, want to know how much oil is in the fuel, or how much nitro is required for this or that engine. There is no standard answer for how much of each ingredient is in each type fuel or what fuel is right for this engine. Each type fuel is blended for a specific application. Helicopters, cars, sport planes, pattern planes, ducted fans and boats all require slightly different blends to provide the optimal performance in their particular environment. Please see the FAQ section for specific questions and answers about our products and fuels in general.
