There are however many poorly performing electric setups. Often these are RTF "toys" that are terribly underpowered. But this isn't the fault of the electric, it is the designer/manufacture fault for putting that crappy setup on that plane.
True! Very true! What if we judged glow engine powered planes by the performance of a typical .049 powered RTF toy?
We're having our semi annual 1/2A (.049) pylon race this May,, your welcome to bring a "toy" up and see how well you can keep up!! requires a Cox .049
LOL I have a scratch built 1/2A Reno Racer that my Dad built years ago hanging from Elena's ceiling in her room with a hand polished .049 in it. Nothing like a 100 mph "Toy" !! 2 channels, Ailerons & elevator, Tune till it screams & hold on tight! Talk about "Pucker-factor"[X(]
