Default RE: Is Gas Engines a Fad?

ORIGINAL: dash3riprock

i have a thunder tiger 2000 trainer with an os .46, a raptor f22 with a small glow trainer, a p51 40 size with a .60nx evo. the fuel is almost $30 a gallon. for which most seems to exit the muffler. My next project is going to be a top flight p51 giant rtc and the os 55 gas looks real good once you get over the sticker shock. but will it have the power? and wont it pay for itself in fuel cost?
Take a look at DLE gas engines. cheaper that OS and very reliable. What is the wing span and flight wieght of the P51, a DLE 50cc would probably work. Also check out the classifed section here. Good deals can be found!!
