don't down size your motors.....up size the planes and motors....go gasoline...ethenol free is 4.20 a gallon plus oil 11.00 bucks at most for 2 gallons....
I started flying gas this past year and all year I don't think I used three gallons of gas. I also fly my glow some, however not nearly as much anymore because of the price of glow fuel. I can get it for around 18 a gallon, but when you think about gas at around 4 or less it is a no brainer. I would burn about a 3/4 gallon of glow fuel in a day's flying. That really added up over time.
I plan to gradually get rid of most of my glow planes except for the very economical ones and then anything that will handle 20cc up is going to be gas from the start.
