Brutus67,
Thanks for your input. I had heard of such things as running glow engines on gasoline, but thought it only to be a trick and not practical. Having heard your report has made me interested to research it from a truly practical standpoint. I agree, that on a .10, the cost is not an issue for low fuel vs gas (yet?!), but run time per fuel load on a motor glider is an important parameter. Reaching 12 minutes of run time is not so important either, but more run time is very nice to have. I like to run on o% nitro and the .10 likes nitro so maybe gas would improve starting and less than Wide Open throttle settings. I also like to run at lower throttle settings because it seems more scale-like even though I do not go for fine scale, that much.
I am sure all the basic information for converting glow to gas is available here and elsewhere on the 'net, but if you have any salient points of interest on your Eureka! moments would be good to hear if you wish to expound on them.
