Please let me know how much Nitro content you want. Normally for plane 1 % or 5% is used.

It's not "just methanol"

You need a certain grade of Methanol - LR or GR. Use of commercial Methanol may lead to uneven running,starting problems, and corrosion in the engine

Castor Oil is among the best lubricants. But it creates a mess that is difficult to remove, and if immediately after flying the engine is not thoroughly cleaned, will form a caramelised coat that is difficult to remove. Further, if after flying, the engine is kept for some time, it gets "gummed up"

Nitromethane is an important ingredient. Besides acting as a catalyst and increasing power, it contributes to a reliable low end. All engine manufacturers recommend it's use.

Good quality commercial pre-blended fuels contain a mixture of lubricants, good quality methanol and nitromethane, pre-mixed in the correct proportions and supplied in a good quality container. Methanol is hygroscopic and absorbs water very fast, so the container is important

5 liters?
What size engine, of which make, and what size tank are you using?

If you are really a beginner, as your profile says, that's a lot of fuel...
Unless you run a large engine, or fly a lot.
Here in our group, members (mostly OS, ASP or Thunder Tiger) use no nitro for airplanes (only for helis). The only exception is me, using 1.5% nitro for a Super Tigre .40

I am going to try some from turneast31.

If you can get methanol and castor oil, make an 80:20 mix yourself.
Unless your engine must have nitromethane. Nitro may be hard to get.
