For me I am into brushless now and outrunners. I can tell you one thing, the planes are small and do not really handle like a nice 40 sized plane but one thing I can say is that the throttle response is so nice! Totally linear. Still its only affordable in the speed 350-400 range of planes. I want a nice 40 sized plane but cannot see the figures making sense at present due to the cost of lipolys. Flight pack of battery has to be about 5S2P for a nice 40 sized plane. That means 10 pieces of 2,000 MaH lipolys that can handle 15C. You will want 3 packs of batteries ... that is one big ouch!

I will say that I am a nitro nut but after trying EP, I am loving it as much.
