Re: Gas / Oil calculator app for Blackberry

Amount of Gas in ml divided by Ratio equals oil in ml

5000ml of gas / 32:1 = 156ml of oil
5000ml of gas / 50:1 = 100ml of oil

Re: Gas / Oil calculator app for Blackberry

ahhh

do you really need an app for your Blackberry to figure out fuel mixtures?

Here's a video of a guy using a cell phone and pumping gas - the whole thing catches fire

especially if you can start thinking in metric (SI) units - it did take me a couple of days but once you finally just drop imperial, you're there.

or
100 ml oil - 3.2 litres gas = 32:1

Hey Nick... Your not supposed to be texting and e-mailing at work !!!

I know the caluculation is simple but was just looking for a quick BLACKBERRY APP. I know this probably doesn't mean anything to a non-crackberry user like you

Now get ur to indoor flying tonight !!!

Re: Gas / Oil calculator app for Blackberry

I have a windows phone 7. It comes with MS excel, so for windows 7 users, it's just a matter of authoring a simple spreadsheet.

If anyone has a winphone 7 and wants a copy, I can PM you a skydrive link

Re: Gas / Oil calculator app for Blackberry

Its a simple math formula. Fuel(in oz's) divided by the ratio your seeking = oil content required. IE: 128 oz divided by 50:1 = 2.56 oz . Just use the 50 in the ratio part.
You dont need a blackberry app for that. (unless you fly ARFs. Then you need all the help you can get )
