2. Glow fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glow_fuel

   Glow fuel is a fuel source used in model engines – generally the same or similar fuels can be used in model airplanes, helicopters, cars and boats. [1] Glow fuel can be burned by very simple two-stroke engines or by more complicated four-stroke engines, and these engines can provide impressive amounts of power for their very small size.

3. Nitro engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_engine

   A nitro engine generally refers to an engine powered with a fuel that contains some portion (usually between 10% and 40%) of nitromethane mixed with methanol.Nitromethane is a highly combustible substance that is generally only used in very specifically designed engines found in Top Fuel drag racing and in miniature internal combustion engines in radio control, control line and free flight ...

   By the end of the 1980s, the buggy class single-handedly turned the radio-controlled car market into a multimillion-dollar business [53] but in 1990, Tamiya, a market leader in off-road cars; shifted their attention toward on-road cars [54] when in 1991, they adapted their Manta Ray's DF-01 [55] chassis to a Nissan Skyline GT-R NISMO bodyshell.

5. Nitromethane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitromethane

   Nitromethane is used as a fuel in motor racing, particularly drag racing, as well as for radio-controlled model power boats, cars, planes and helicopters. In this context, nitromethane is commonly referred to as "nitro fuel" or simply "nitro", and is the principal ingredient for fuel used in the "Top Fuel" category of drag racing. [14]

6. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

   The highest performance is achieved with fuel of 30% or more nitro content. At least 20% oil (50/50 castor/synthetic) is recommended. Acceptable performance can be had without nitromethane, although the engine will be very sensitive to needle adjustments making it more difficult to operate. With high nitromethane (nitro) fuel it may be ...

7. Radio-controlled aircraft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aircraft

   A radio-controlled aircraft (often called RC aircraft or RC plane) is a small flying machine that is radio controlled by an operator on the ground using a hand-held radio transmitter. The transmitter continuously communicates with a receiver within the craft that sends signals to servomechanisms (servos) which move the control surfaces based on ...
