mine usually last about a month in the summer, in the winter maybe 3-4 months, so cold only can stay out about 2 tanks or less cuz its so cold or something breaks cuz its so cold, i dont like the cold lol

now in the summer I can get 2 weeks out of a gallon and inthe winter 1-2 months per gallon only because it gets to fulll of snow and I feel like going in. the cold doesnt bother me that much.

some days when its 30 degrees out I can go outside with a short sleeve shirt and jeans and im all set.

gallon every month in the summer, and now that Leisure will be open soon I'm guessing I'll go through a gallon a month in the winter too!

A gallon lasts about 6 weeks but we only fun-run.

MY fuel consumption depends on what I do. When I run my landmax (MP 7.5 based rally car) in the summer I'll run the thing for an hour straight in a parking lot. Then let it chill a bit while I break out my 1/8 buggy for a couple tanks. Then back to the Landmax for another hour. ITs just nice and relaxing for me to run long periods of time like that but with a .21 or lerger engine on all my Rc's doing the long runs I end up using almost a gallon in a day.
