I still have your comments on my smartphone:

Actually it'll probably take more R600a, depending on the size of your compressor. What's the displacement? Figure on 35-40grams for 5ccm displacement (rotary compressors), and just increase this as you increase your compressor size.
The R1150 along with the R600a will be doing the bulk of your cooling, and yes the most temperature drop will be in the aux condenser. Also having more temperature data across the stack viewable at one time can be extremely valuable when tuning the charge, and for developing a better feel for what refrigerants are doing.
You really won't need all that much R50 or R740 for that matter. The R50 just serves to create an R14 like refrigerant out of the R1150. Using too much can be determental and will simply push up your discharge pressure needlessly. Same thing for the R740, small amount is best. With R740 I think what you are really seeing is the partial pressure effect making the evaporator pressure appear lower than it actually is, thus allowing a colder evaporation temperatrure to be achieved. Lastly you might not need R740 at all if your target temperature is around -120 to -130?C. But if you don't plan on using it, make up the difference with R50.
Good luck, and that's all can really share at this time. The rest can be learned better by experimenting and developing your own intuitive insights.

He's going a bit bigger than 5cc... He's using a 21ccm.
Bigger is the better right?
