Hi,
I was at our National Championships this weekend. The leading pilot was flying a YS CDI. During an F flight he got a dead stick. On landing he found his throttle servo was toast. He replaced the throttle servo and went to fly the next round of the comp. On throttle up the plane went crazy, luckily it was being held at the time. The culprit was found to be a broken ignition cap causing interference. Luckily even though he scrubbed 2 rounds he managed to win the title despite all his issues. He spent at least an hour on his hands and knees over his YS.

I personally think the thing about Electric v Engine for me is that I am never worried about my electric starting or more importantly stopping. If you set it up correctly and manage your battery correctly and monitor how they are behaving then you rarely have an issue. I just never had that feeling when I flew IC

Just my observations as a "former" YS pilot .
