RE: Why Gassers are more addictive or better than Glows e?
I fly both engine types. for me the gasser means:
pro's
No kickback when starting
No starting problems in the cold
No slimey planes and oil creeping into everything.
No dirty oily hands when handling the plane
Less vibration, longer plane life.
Excellent low rpm pulling power
Readily available fuel.
cons
engine is more complex, new tricks to master
slightly less power per cu-inch
harder to use with iso-mounts.
In all day life, the gasser wins hands down for sizes 20cc and more. 15cc is twilight zone.
