Hello felloe RCers and MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL ...

I have a thought that I would like to ask for your opinion. I have been in RC since 1980 and I have noticed a change in our wonderful hobby over the years. They are the advancement in the ARF market, the bloom of computer radios and the development in electric powers. I have converted the majority of my planes in the 40 size to electric power in the past 2 years. I noticed that the initial set up is about 100 dollars ( in the 40 size planes) more than glow but the return is enormous. No more fuel soaked hands and planes to clean, no more tinkkering with needle valve and the engine ALWAYS start in all kind of temperature. But I still see many guys who fly gas just turn away their heads when they are mentioned about going electric. I certainly see that the hesistation of converting 60-90 size to electric since the cost of the batteries is still to high to justify the conversion. But in the 40 size or below, it makes sense that electric power just makes plain sense. But yet, I keep seeing guys buying 40 size glow and just won't enen think about eletric conversion. Any thoughts on why there is such a hesistation? Dai
