Default RE: electric vs glow for planes

I've flown several planes that have been converted to electric and it just didn't do anything for me. And it all came down to one thing, and one thing only, the sound. The sounds of an electric plane just don't sound like a plane to me. I like to hear the engine, especially the rumble of a good 4-stroke. But it's more than than, sometimes my flying is based on the sound coming from the engine, especially when I'm landing. I'll stick to glow/gas planes

That's my 2ยข worth
