Woody, I said power, not speed. I agree that the little electric buzzbombs can go like hell -- they also weigh next to nothing & don't need (or make) much power. They also flit in the wind like all of their kind. They can also cost $1k, although they can also cost much less.

As you agreed with me -- there just isn't an electric equivalent to a 40-size glow plane (even a trainer) that has the size, weight, strength & power of the glo-bird for anything close to the same price.
